The Future of Television

IssuuMy friend and former classmate Alasdair Trotter recently sent me a link to a website called Issuu. The site allows users to upload and share PDF’s.

The first PDF that Alasdair uploaded was a paper that we wrote together last spring entitled NewTube, the Growth of Online Video. In it, we analyzed the strategy being pursued by Fox and NBC in the creation of their online TV portal. (Hulu is in private beta, by the way. Let me know if you want an invitation.)

It’s always interesting to look back at work created in school. I know some people at Tuck who wrote a paper last year for Corporate Restructuring, in which they speculated that Microsoft would buy Yahoo. They received an S+ for their trouble. Hopefully they’re laughing all the way to the bank!
