This is the wrong day for a thread that begins with 'The wait is over!'.

I wasn't really a fan of joost. It was very choppy for me. All I wanted to do was see some Stella episodes but it kept completely stopping and starting the next one. A friend of mine said it was much smoother in the earlier releases so I'd assume that it'll run nice at some point. I'll give it another chance in a few months.

It's still invite only beta, isnt it?

I have a few invites in case anyone wants one.

So is it any good? Seems like an interesting thing at least. Then again, it sounds like TV (which I like) over the computer (which I like) so I guess I'm predisposed to liking it.

I'm not a big fan of it but you should take a look at it and make your own mind up. I didnt like skype either but that became popular.

I really wanted to like it ... but it felt more like ramen (which I like) and ice cream (which I like). The combination was unpleasant.

it's does not seem to be invite only anymore
