The founders of Skype are at it again. This time with a vision that aims to converge television programming, user generated content and peer to peer networking within an interactive video site. According to Business Week, Janus Friis and Niklas Zennstrom are preparing to launch the public beta to their latest venture, The Venice Project, this November.
So far, the project’s website does not say much about what’s going on behind closed doors. According to the website, the project combines the best things about television with the social power of the internet – a project that gives viewers, advertisers and content owners more choice, control, and creativity than ever before.
It’ll be interesting to see the technological innovations of this project. The Skype founders are amazing entrepreneurs that know how to create good projects. So if the Venice Project is anything like Kazaa or Skype, it’ll definitely be a hit.
