Kyte Continues to rock

Posted in Uncategorized on Mar 07, 2008

Daniel Graft, CEO and cofounder of Kyte just announced a couple of major developments for the company. First, the recent investment from Telia Sonera and most relevantly from Steamboat Ventures, this is Disney VC Fund, so this closes the loop on the shareholder ecosystem that he is building with leading telcos like Telefónica, NTT Docomo, Swiscom and now also TeliaSonera, mobile device manufacturers like Nokia and now a large media company, Disney.  Disney means not only Disney but also ABC (the network from Lost, Desperate Housewifes, Oprah), ESPN, Miramax, Pixar, etc.). Second, he has announced mobile live streaming directly to your Kyte channel and the new kyte.com website. Kyte has now become the best multimedia social sharing and publishing platform for media companies, artists,  telcos and users to broadcast their content and virally distribute it. I have been involved with Kyte for several months already and next week I will be with them in San Francisco next week and I can tell you that they are into something big, I am extremely pleased with our decision to invest and very happy of the quick progress the company is making. Check out their new introduction video here in the newly introduced kyte.com website. Here is the Techcrunch announcement of the release. Techcrunch has also just released their branded channel (first one was rapper 50cent in his website here, his channel has been viewed more than 4MM times and embedded in more than 13,000 web sites in just few months) using Kyte, I have embedded it below with Daniel interview of the recent announcement.

Go Kyte!!!

    I am the director for Internet and Multimedia for Telefónica R&D, based in Barcelona where I managed their R&D center. I have been a bit all over the place for the last 15 years, specially in Tokyo, my favorite town, and finally came back in mid 2006 to my home town. I like everything that has to do with the Internet, computers, software and gadgets, not just the geeky aspect but also the business side. I also love reading (business essays mainly) and TV series and movies as well as having a good dinner and night out with my friends.
