So, it’s been a very long time coming, but tubecast.tv is back!

I finally found some time to revamp the way tubecast.tv works, with the goal this time of allowing you to create and manage your own TV channels. Much of the interface has remained the same, but with the major additions of a menu system to allow for the management of channels, and a search feature allowing viewers to create a “quick channel” playing whatever takes their fancy.

The system is powered by the YouTube API, so the content library behind tubecast.tv is huuuge! As usual, you needn’t register to watch*, and to create your own channels you simply use your existing YouTube account (please read our privacy policy for details on how tubecast.tv deals with your YouTube account).

Of course there are a zillion and one additions/refinements that could be made to make this a killer application, but of course, this takes time, especially considering that this is not a full-time job for me. But your feedback, of course, is greatly appreciated and as such tubecast.tv is now available via a limited private beta (sorry, but it’s private to ensure that my teeny-weeny shared server doesn’t spontaneously combust). Just go to http://tubecast.tv to sign up.

* as for the application itself, you don’t need to register to watch. However the private beta programme requires sign up.
