In early 2005 during a trip to Rome, I got in touch with an old
friend, Bunmi Akintonwa, an English video producer and distributor
whose successful career as a journalist and as international buyer for
several International TV stations had always impressed me.
During our conversations we talked about a project, conceived before
youtube.com was a popular website, involving delivering media content,
not through the typical channel such as TV and cinema, but through new
distribution platforms such as the web and portable devises. After
listening for a while I told Bunmi that I would be interested in
working with her. The project interested me because it gave me a way
to utilize my contacts and the experience acquired as web developer and entrepreneur.
I felt that I could help both with the marketing and business aspects
as well as with finding the team of programmers needed for the
development of this platform.
By the end of 2006, we had a small website running with some original
video produced by a network of independent artists, we changed the
original concept to reflect the changing realities on the web and are
now trying to upgrade our web application to attract a larger number
of users, advertisers, and investors.
During the summer of 2007, we have included some new features and are
now generating a small but promising revenue stream through advertising.
