I'm pleased to announce that a project I've been working on for the past few months has been released. (well open beta) It's called eVoke TV. Majority of the development was done by yours truely using Ruby on Rails.

What is it? Turning on marketroid speak, it's TV Listings Web 2.0 style. Compared to most TV listings sites, which tend to be slow and cluttered with ads, eVoke aims to be as fast as possible. Lots of ajax and scriptaculous effects.

Also, it provides RSS feeds for your rated shows as well as a personalized lineup feed. In other words I can open my RSS aggregator and every day it will send me the list of shows I like that are on today. Along with the RSS feeds, you can add script tags to your blog to share your favorites as you should be able to see in the sidebar of this page.

The other biggy is an ajax powered realtime chat room for every show that is on right now. What this means is it connects you to other users in your timezone so that you can chat about the show you're watching. (your chat status can also be posted to your blog so your visitors can see what show you're watching right now and join you in chat)

There's lots of other nifty stuff, so do me a favor and go take a look and spread the word.

Oh, how could I forget, we're launching at Demo 2006, a pretty prestigous conference. Over 1500 companies applied, but only 70 are accepted. I'm quite pleased with myself at the moment. :)
