Hulu: You Can Stop Laughing Now …
Hulu.com, the News Corp./NBC Universal video service that sounds like it was named by The Web 2.0 Bull—t Generator™, went into private beta today, and while critics continued to snicker at the name, most admitted the ad-supported service was, by and large, pretty decent. ”I am impressed thus far,” wrote BoomTown’s Kara Swisher. “I will, of course, reserve judgment until I get to test-drive it for a while, but in concept and tone and aims–that is, more open than I ever expected the service to be–it is off to a good start.”
