So who are we and why now?
We're a small group of video geeks and tech nerds based out in Silicon Spa [Leamington Spa, UK to those unfamiliar]. We're headed up by Ross Alderson, co-founder of TheRegister.co.uk, one of the world's largest Tech Publications and we're supported by a team of highly dedicated and creative developers and designers.
We've been involved in web video and video production since forever, and like many of our forebears and fellow developers have ourselves in the past toiled with the many intricacies of developing video experiences that just work; across multiple browsers, devices and the myriad of viewer preferences.
Convinced there had to be a better way to solve the situation we cleared our schedules and got to work. Untold quantities of pepperoni pizza, carbonated drinks, late nights and a few poorly chosen 3am anthems later and we were ready to share with the world the progeny we have birthed!
Like all new mothers we think our baby is the best thing ever, but what do you think? Check it out and let us know http://yokto.tv
