Triple Play in the Living Room – IPTV and social widgets

June 8, 2010 By IMTC 1 Comment

Cable providers are offering Triple Play (a combined package of TV, Broadband and IP telephony) for quite a while – However Triple Play was and is a marketing term - TV experience is yet to take advantage of the Triple Play model.
The Triple Play panel talks about possible solutions for Triple play (or even quadruple play) communication – between IPTV set-top, cellular phones and boxes and web applications. What would be the future of TV? How can technology bring value to the Triple Play model? Will industry standards advance the next generation of TV experience?

What’s So Social About TV Anyway – An Interview with Marie-José Montpetit

May 26, 2010 By Kfir Pravda 3 Comments

Last week I had the chance to conduct a special interview with Marie Jose Montpetit, an invited scientist in MIT Labs at the department of electrical engineering, about a relatively new field that called “Social TV”.

I was always intrigued by the way that technology enables us to watch TV content whenever and wherever we want, but we still use it in order to reconnect around TV shows. In this interview we are trying to figure out:

Is TV dead? What are the new ways of TV consumption?
Can the current business models support the TV experience of tomorrow? And what’s so social about TV anyway?
