WorldTV

Michael Parkinson is a well known TV interviewer in the UK who has interviewed ‘everyone’ over the years. He has just earned himself a knighthood from the Queen for his services to British broadcasting, so we’ve put together a channel for him on WorldTV showcasing some of his classic interviews over the years. You’ll find interviews with Muhammad Ali, Victoria and David Beckham, Russell Crowe, Meg Ryan, Billy Connolly and Peter Kay.

Michael Parkinson classic clips on WorldTV

In the spirit of Xmas we decided to put together a little collection of videos for our team Christmas card. And yes in England we still call it Christmas.

The WorldTV Xmas Video (mature themes)

We love Daily Motion, it’s a great video hosting site, unfortunately some WorldTV users are currently experiencing problems with Daily Motion clips in their WorldTV channels. We have an idea what the problem is, and assure you we’ll be on the case with fixing it as soon as Xmas is out the way.

Have a wonderful holidays and don’t forget to show your relatives how easy it is to create their own channel on WorldTV!

Earlier problems have now been fixed.

We’re aware of major issues with the system at this time which we are looking into. We will post updates on the situation as soon as we have more news. In the meantime please accept our apologies for any inconvenience.

The WorldTV homepage is now in 6 languages, to complement the translations of the rest of the WorldTV application into Spanish, Portuguese, Ukrainian, French and Russian.

Bienvenidos, Bem-vindo, Bitaemo, Bienvenue and Dobro pozhalovat!

So the dust has settled, the team has just about got over our hangovers from the launch party, and we’re keen to know what people think of the new features.

We’d especially like to know what people think of the new World page, and the multi-language versions of the application. We’ve got some immediate improvements planned, an ‘Editor’s Pick’ icon for the World page to help highlight interesting channels, and a means for people to know how many people have visited their channel.

You can post comments or write to us…

We’re grateful to Techcrunch France, Red Ferret and Pai for their recent coverage.

A little late notice, possibly something to do with a party last night?, we’re happy to announce the launch of the WorldTV ‘World’ page and translations of the WorldTV interface into French, Spanish, Portuguese, Ukrainian and Russian.

The World page is pretty cool. Through it you can now browse channels created by other people, all categorized by country. You can see the most watched channels in every country simply by browsing and zooming the World map.
