Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

Hi All,

Watchitoo Team (@hilaraz @BrianAugust @donkthought)  is on the road with the wonderful @mashable team for their Mashable Summer Tour 2010. First stop this past weekend was in Seattle at the Hyatt Olive8 where all guests/sponsors/social media personalities were featured on the exclusive Watchitoo Multistream embedded on mashable (Please RT: http://bit.ly/mashlive)

We had a great time out there with Rachel Sklar who interviewed  Mashable CEO and Founder: Pete Cashmore and many others. Recap footage and highlights will soon be featured on the Watchitoo Blog & on Mashable. We even had @adventuregirl join us when Brett Petersel & Karen Hartline were on the Watchitoo Carpet. Look below at our awesome photos.

Mashable also posted great event photos not to be missed!

Tour Stop #2 is tonight Live from Grand Hyatt in San Francisco starting at 7:15 pm PST and will include cameos from various virtual guests joining us live from around the country: Sarah Evans, Marc Ostrick, Stephanie Michaels, Lauren Perkins, Jonathan Morvay, & Vanessa Rae.

Join us and make some fun youtube contest submissions to be featured LIVE on Watchitoo for the rest of the tour with stops in DC, NYC, & Chicago early August!

@Scobleizer joins Seattle Tweethouse @140TC

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

Tomorrow we’ll be providing live, online video streaming from “The Tweet House” in Seattle on March 8th. The broadcast will stream during the afternoon from the Bell Harbor Convention Center in Seattle, WA.

In addition to the live streaming coverage, Watchitoo will also remotely “beam-in” special guest speaker Robert Scoble, a technology blogger and one of Forbes’ Web Celeb 25 for 2010, to address the in-house audience.

This is the second event in which Watchitoo and the Parnassus Group have teamed up to provide streaming coverage to outside audiences. In January of this year, Watchitoo remotely brought Jimmy Jean-Louis, of NBC’s Heroes, to the “The Tweet House” at Sundance to address the recent earthquakes in Haiti.

Parnassus Group founder Steve Broback said, “We are extremely pleased to have Watchitoo on board again for ‘The Tweet House.’ The Watchitoo platform has become the ideal tool for us to ‘beam-in’ guests from around the world and provides a layer of interactivity for those who cannot attend events to digitally mingle with conference goers.”

“We’re very happy to be working once again with the Parnassus Group,” said Rony Zarom, CEO of Watchitoo. “Given the recent successes at Sundance and CES 2010, Watchitoo is proving itself an ideal platform for events of this stripe.”
