- ffwd Delivers Integrated Video Sharing for Twitter
ffwd (pronounced “fast forward”), the company empowering thousands of consumers with a revolutionary personal remote control for channel-surfing video on the web, today released an enhancement to its media service designed to reflect a user’s lifestream: the ability to post videos found on any website directly to Twitter using a bookmarklet. Posted videos are also now available as passive recommendations in a Twitter-like stream on the user’s ffwd channel page.
“Twitter is one of the best ways to share timely information and ignite a conversation around it,” said Patrick Koppula, CEO of ffwd. “The fact is, video is best enjoyed as a conversational experience so while it was obvious for ffwd to build on the Twitter platform, we are especially happy with the well-integrated result of the service offering – it’s like we were baked right in from the start.”
