You got any viewing figures for these Channels ?

Do you or anyone you know ever watch them ?

moneyplus ... SOR look interesting but I'm not really looking at much at the moment.

reminder for those interested who have not already looked, Brainteaser 1p.m. Channel 5. A poster on iii claims this is Endemol's second most lucrative show after Big Brother. Anyway I'm going to watch, see what we're involved with.

So mac ... you got any viewing figures for these Channels ?

Do you or anyone you know ever watch them ?

Buy hey Dil, look at potential. Worldwide there are 6bn people if only 1% of them watch this crap the stock will skyrocket. My broker said these were a screaming buy and the chart shows a breakout and on level two one of the MM's has moved his spread from 50% to 75%. All positive stuff. They only blew 41m of shareholders money getting to this stage as well. Re-mortgage the house.

And its not expected to make a material contribution this year .... nothing ever has !

Make more business sense to start a porn channel imo.

Poor Dil your pining for sue

A sheep porn channel for Dil lol.

Why jonny ?

Has she started a porn channel ?

Told you she was a slapper.

I think she changed her name to macbullsh*t ... he a tw*t like her.

Confirmation at last dil of what a lot of us have known for a long time - that you're a complete wanker. Unsubtle I know and not a little risque but having confirmed it for us we can all go our separate ways safe in the knowledge that whatever you say the box of tissues won't be far away. Bless.

Playing The Mobile Dating Game

The U.K.-based interactive-TV provider YooMedia is confident it can make a strong impact in the mobile-television space for interactive entertainment applications. The company recently launched a mobile gaming channel linked to its Avago TV channel and Web site, and it claims to be one of the first examples of seamless interactivity with viewers and players across all mainstream digital media: television, Internet and mobile.

According to CEO Neil MacDonald, There are two areas: dating and gambling. We are doing dating under the Dateline brand, where we launched the U.K.s first, if not the worlds first, mobile video dating service last week. You use the cameras capabilities on your mobile phone to record your own profile. We are starting to use the phone handset as a way of capturing content from the viewer. The dating-service approach is highly appropriate.

McDonald also believes mobile gambling will become the next big thing: We know how people love to gamble on TV, and we know that people will like doing it on their mobiles because it is easy, convenient and very entertaining. That is going to grow rapidly.

The key to YooMedias success in the mobile arena hinges on whether it can replicate the TV experience on the small screen. We want to introduce more video into it, and more participation and community elements. We want to try and replicate what we do on digital television on mobile, MacDonald says. We havent seen anything like that yet, so we know from our own experience with TV that consumers will respond very well to that kind of service packaged up in that way.

A brief reminder of what you are getting for 10p per share.............

1) Turnover increase from 300 K per annum, to 300 K per day in a the space of three years - forecast loss this year - just 1 million ( if you are worried about that loss - just take a look at the BSKYB losses at the same time in tat companies evolution - then take a look at where they are now - yes, million's in profit, a nice dividend, and giving cash back to the investors )

2) Yoomedia have hived off the back of the success of BSKYB, NTL, Telewest, and Freeview, to now have access to over 65% of the nation via DTV - watch the growth further growth stats at www.dtg.org.uk , also, take a look at the way the growth is happening internationally.

3)By their own patented technology, Yoomedia are able to offer a red button experience to the remaining Anologue customers via Mobile Phone, already BBC and ITV use this service during peak time Saturday viewing - broadcasters like this technology, because no one is left out iTV leading up to Switchover in 2012 - make no mistake, iTV is still in its infancy - but already is becoming a weekly feature on your TV's - it will grow at a staggering pace, as Broadcasters are already seeing the advantages of the increased revenues - especially as advertising revenues are dwindling, as these revenues are now having to be shared by over 400 UK independent Broadcasters.

4) Yoomedia have built, and continue to grow an impressive client base, which include, from the Broadcast Industry - BBC, ITV, C4, C5, BSKYB, Turner , International Production companies, Celador and now indirectly, Endemol, and are the preferred interactive marketing partner to Nestle, have an ongoing contract with NHS direct, to bring all NHS services into the home via DTV, already broadcasting on BSKYB, soon to be brought to Freeview, not forgetting that Yoomedia now have a 5 year contract with FTSE 100 member William Hill, to bring iTV services into the home, as well as to 1500 high street shops.

5) With the aquistion of DITG group last year, Yoomedia are now Programme makers and broadcasters in there own right, and ARE the only company in the UK that provide iTV services across all DTV platforms - a great attraction to all third party broadcasters.

6) Yoomedia is lead by Dr Michael Sinclair, a very successful businessman in his own right, having built and sold solid businesses in the UK, USA and Far East, who now has an ambition to build a company with international success, the largest shareholder in Yoomedia is Peter Wilkinson, the founder and Architect for the success of " Freeserve ".

DTV and the iTV services that are now becoming possible, is very much still in its infancy, and maybe that is why we are able to take advantage of the SP at present - for how long - who knows, but for an idea of what can happen in a company that is moving forward in a fast moving new market, take a look at eBay over its time - for that reason, and based on the research that I have carried out, which goes way beyond Yoomedia itself, I am not taking any chances of being out of this one - you can rest assured that there is lot going on inside Yoomedia at present, that none of us know about, but when we do, the SP could move dramatically, we have seen it before, when the company was not really that stable, this time it is a different story - I could have taken major profits in this company when the shares intra day reached in excess of 60p, but even two years ago, I had made the decision that this was to invest for a minimum of 5 years, well with thre years to go, I am more than pleased with the evolution of the company, the SP - well that is a tempory situation, I firmly believe that this company is more than capable of producing profits in the region of 50 - 100 million sometime in the next three years, and that being the case, would give an EPS of 21p - with a certain PE ratio 20 ( very conservative ) gives a possible future SP in excess of 300p, and if you think growth like this is not possible, take a look at SPORTINGBET over the last three years - I know where my money would rather be now, when you compare the two - look how well SPORTINGBET have done just off of the back of the internet - YOOMEDIA can now take advantage of three mediums, INTERNET, DTV and MOBILE - which in time, will give them just about 98 % access to the whole of the World.

Good luck to all long term investors, the potential rewards are great, but must not lose site of the risks, and to that end DYOR - there is plenty of info out in the public domain to enable you to make an informed decision on the possibilities ahead for Yoomedia.
