We’re excited to be sponsoring and exhibiting at this year’s NewTeeVee Live conference held in San Francisco next Thursday, 12 November. We’ll be amongst some great sponsors, and the speaker line up looks great. In particular, we’re excited to hear the following:
TV Gets Social
“CNN and Facebook kicked off 2009 with a landmark integration for U.S. President Barack Obama’s inauguration. Signed-in watchers saw a live-updating stream of their friends’ comments on the event, creating an implicitly defined, ad-hoc chat room. Hear what works and what’s next from the two companies who joined forces to spark what’s fast becoming a social TV revolution.”
Speakers:
- Liz Gannes Co-Editor of NewTeeVee, GigaOM Network
- Andy Mitchell VP of Digital Marketing and Development, CNN Worldwide
- Randi Zuckerberg Marketing, Facebook
NewTeeVee’s Next Big Thing, Session 2
“The editors of NewTeeVee chose 10 of the most promising young players in the online video space to project the future. Each of the presenters from our diverse list of companies will tell us what’s next on their respective road maps, and identify where they think the industry is going. Taken together, we’ll get a heterogeneous yet cohesive look at the most interesting upcoming trends, technologies and projects in online video.”

Roku’s Little Box Has Big Plans for Your Living Room
“Don’t let its simplicity fool you. Roku’s little set-top box is a powerful device and could be a game-changer when it comes to how people get their video. The company already has big-name partnerships with Netflix, Amazon VOD and MLB.TV, with more to come. Anthony Wood will talk about Roku’s unique approach to the set-top world and show you the latest services available on the device.”
Speakers:
- Chris Albrecht, Co-Editor of NewTeeVee, GigaOm Network

We’ll have a table to show attendees our new products, so stop in to say hello!
