After two years of design and development a beta version of Intelevision launched on Saturday, November 1.
Intelevision is a next-generation program guide designed to help you decide what to watch on TV. With hundreds of channels on at any time, existing TV program guides suffer from an overload of information, not usefully displayed. Intelevision uses the ‘wisdom of the crowd’ to recommend what you might want to watch at any given time, and then creates a social environment around the watching of any show on TV. This is done through an interface that presents programming information in a new way, separating the wheat from the chaff of the TV landscape.
Early users have said we have created the best and easiest to use guide to television extant – powered by users – and we’ve only begun.
Initial concept and strategy on the project was led by Mark McNeely (CEO) and Tim Smith (VP Design and ADG partner). The technology infrastructure has been brilliantly designed and executed by Anuj Khandelwal (CTO) who was a senior engineer in the creation of the Rhapsody music application. Initial layout and design of the Intelevision interface was masterfully rendered by Jason Wilson. Subsequent design and production has been led by Tim Smith.
Intelevision is free. Give it a try at www.intelevision.com. And tell your friends!
(We have a major release in the works for late April – stay tuned.)
