Joost co-founder Niklas Zennström says more than a million people have signed up to beta test Joost. The service is still invitation only, but a few months ago Joost removed restrictions on how many invitations users could send out.
Of course, having 1 million registered users doesn't mean there are that many people using the P2P video application on a daily basis. Shortly after the company launched its unlimited invitation phase, Joost's servers were hammered by increased traffic, a problem which has since been fixed. But it'll be interesting to see what happens when the service launches publicly. Zennström says that could happen by the end of the year.

I've been hearing rumors about a new service that's going to drastically change the way users experience Internet TV. Problem is they are hush-hush, anyone know anything further about these guys @ http://www.skejcast.com?
