It was going to happen sooner or later. The world’s first programmable TV.
“This was an idea I’ve had for a long time,
and it’s been a long time coming for the world”, says CEO/lead developer for UltraHot.TV Stan Switaj.
“The idea is solid, to allow to world to edit what they want to watch, not with random video after video, or with tracking analytics of what you might like as a next video, but videos and even live tv events, that are in a programmable tv guide for the day.”
“It’s a simple idea that I’m sure it’s been thought of, but no one has gotten around to doing it. I will start by saying, let’s just say there’s the status quo and tons of money around TV broadcasts, so there’s no surprise that the freedom of a programmable TV for the world is for whatever reason hasn’t come into fruition. Yet, with every feature that innovates, there’s going to be disruption to that status quo, and there’s that, but the Internet community benefits, and it’s a win for freedom and the people of the world, the Internet community, who want the Internet their way.”
There are bigger ideas or features that are in the idea/planning stage that enhance UltraHot.TV’s programmable tv, but suffice to say that this is only the beginning, “I’ve always believed that release early and often are a cornerstone to motivation, progress is a good thing, and permits UltraHot.TV to incorporate feedback during it’s development.” “Ya, programmable TV, videos and comments, that’s the community UltraHot.TV wants to provide for the people of the Internet.” The programming is ongoing, and the code improves, gets better everyday,” says Stan Switaj.
