Online, June 19, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Social media has been growing by leaps and bounds for much of the last decade and FB Television Network is expanding it even further with the launch of FB TeeVee, a free service offering online television to Facebook users.
FB TeeVee, using the catchphrase "It's not TV, it's TeeVee!" is launching with 10 channels of original programming. The company is expected to have 75-100 channels by 2012. Relying on user made programs as well as original programming like "ABC With Professor Puppet," "The Boy in Blue" and "Indie Music Nightly," the company is focused on covering enough niche markets to appeal to the large base of Facebook users.
Programming will be viewable on Facebook via an app which will act as a remote control allowing users to change channels. Promotional videos can currently be seen at http://FBTeeVee.com/.
Says FB TeeVee CEO Ian del Carmen, "Home entertainment is happening over the Internet. People now watch television shows online. With FB TeeVee, we're providing original shows to our viewers which are not available on good old local channels. And it's available to the 600 million users of Facebook. After all, this is FB TeeVee! It's not TV, it's TeeVee!"
Hype for the online television network is already in full swing as more users are made aware of the offerings. The potential for the network is huge as word of mouth continues to spread.
