MTV Founder Bob Pittman Backs Online Video Hub WeShow: Page 2 of 2

"WeShow thrives off of the explosion of online video that has until now frustrated a significant portion of consumers on the Web," Marcos Wettreich, CEO and founder of WeShow, said in a statement. "By consolidating the highest quality and most popular content from across the Internet into a simple and personalized view of all the top quality videos from around the world, WeShow is making online video a pure entertainment experience similar to that of television."

WeShow uses real people and technology instead of algorithms to filter video from sites like YouTube, Google Video, MySpace, MetaCafe, and Dailymotion.

WeShow also delivers targeted newsletters and a daily program that highlights what its teams consider the best worldwide video content available. Though the content is available worldwide, it's chosen for and directed toward three different markets: North America, the United Kingdom, and Brazil. In other words, Americans won't be inundated with cricket footage, and Brits won't have to sift through American football to find what they consider to be the real thing.
