Like most internet media startups we are a group of like minded people who really
enjoy delivering Web 2.0 ~Web 2.5 applications. We built buzdeo origionally to provide
secure video sharing for friends and family, but quickly realized that we needed
to offer a more integrated sharing solution, with some of the features that you
find on good social networking sites. We looked around at similar sites, but instead
of using html/ajax thought that if most people have flash for video, why not build
our application completely in flash. The benifits of using flash is that Buzdeo
looks and feels more like a 'normal' desktop application, but its on the web meaning
no software to install or configure. The added advantage is that when you logon
to buzdeo its connected to all your online buzdeo friends in real time, meaning
that you can chat/instant message with them, send quick messages and send and recieve
sms/text messages to thier cell/mobile phones.
We get our money (to keep the web site running) from advertizing revenues
and bulk purchasing/selling credits for sms sending. If you would like to advertize
on Buzdeo please contact our Sales Dept on +1-212-461-3717 (North America) or +44
845-867-8716 (Europe). If you have ideas or suggestions on how we can improve buzdeo
please contact us here, we really love
to have comments good or Bad!.
For those of you who are interested, we use the following technology mix:
Flash /AS3 for our Buzdeo Client using AMF.NET to bind to our business layers written
in C#.
Java beans for video streaming using RTMP.
ASP.NET for our web pages.
Our DataBase is a internally written C++ structure based around SQL.
NLB load balancing clusters / web farming.
