      <title>Couchville = EvokeTV 2.0?</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href="http://mashable.com/2007/02/15/evoketv/"&gt;King&lt;/a&gt; is dead.  Long live the &lt;a href="http://lifehacker.com/software/television/view-drag+and+drop-tv-listings-at-couchville-242662.php"&gt;King&lt;/a&gt;?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Something looks strangely familiar here... &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://juju.org/files/evoketvshot.png" alt="EvokeTV Screenshot"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://juju.org/files/couchvilleshot.png" alt="Couchville Screenshot"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No, I'm not involved with &lt;a href="http://couchville.com"&gt;Couchville&lt;/a&gt;. (and neither is &lt;a href="http://evoketv.com"&gt;TV Guide&lt;/a&gt;)  Yes, the UI and features are nearly identical to EvokeTV.  All it's missing are the personalized rss and ical feeds of favorite shows.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Oh look, &lt;a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/03/05/doing-one-thing-right-couchville/"&gt;Techcrunch&lt;/a&gt; featured them saying "they’ve nailed the most important feature - the guide itself".  Where was Michael Arrington when I needed him?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yes, I am feeling a little bitter.  I wish them luck though, hopefully they will be able to survive.  (the money behind &lt;a href="http://snapstream.com"&gt;Snapstream&lt;/a&gt; will surely help)&lt;/p&gt;</description>
