Robert Scoble says that the NewTeeVee conference is “lacking substance” since they ignore some popular Internet video like Rocketboom, BitTorrent or applications like Facebook video.
Om Malik’s GigaOm network and new site, NewTeeVee, put together a conference on next-gen TV.
But Scoble wrote up a great list of 40 reasons why he thinks the conference isn’t worth the $500 fee. For example, he mentions that there’s nothing on the “Best practices of old on new.”
The best example of oldTV coming to newTV is what ABC.com is doing. Ever watch Lost over there? I have and it’s the best stuff out there. They are using technology from Move Networks. That stuff blows away Joost. To me THAT is “new TV.”
I wonder if Om Malik and the NewTeeVee people will listen to this criticism and make any changes to their panels and speakers.
