What is VODO?

Jamie King’s VODO has launched. You should definitely check it out and participate.

VODO is trying to help solve three problems:

(1) How do we get works (texts, films, music) distributed efficiently and widely using current Peer to Peer technologies?

(2) How do we market these works that can rival mainstream media?

(3) How can we help creators distributing through P2P systems with developing a sustainable, or even profitable, practice?

I hope a lot of filmmakers give this a try.

Astro Boy

The latest version jumps into our communal bowl on Oct 23rd. We’ve been fans here from the early days.


We are excited to see this one (even if we liked the old character design better!) and pleased that the film’s website has two games for us to play: the Astroboy rescue game and the Astroboy Blast-A-Bot game.

When you’re finish with them, click on the Timeline link to see a full timeline from 1928 to the present of how Astroboy manga / comic came about.
