Mobliss To Offer Mobile Video Content

In what may be the best mobile content name of the year, mobile content publisher Mobliss is launching the "Thumbdance" channel. The mobile video channel will offer content from IFILM, JibJab, Weekend Vibe and sports from Ally Distribution. Some of the content will be ported to mobile, some will be designed for mobile, and some will be exclusively mobile. This content sounds good. When we hear talk of "TV on your phone", we cringe at the though of 60 minute dramas and 30 minute sitcoms that don't fit your schedule and are small and hard to see, but when we see this type of mobile video, we think there is opportunity for success. (For those non US readers who don't get "Thumbdance", it sounds like a popular cable TV channel "Sundance" which plays artsy films and is spun off of Robert Redford's Sundance film festival.)

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team
