Fuugo aggregates video content for your phone, tablet, or PC, makes it more touch-friendly
For the average consumer -- the kind that doesn't consider BitTorrent a way of life, that is -- video content discovery can still be a pretty big challenge, particularly if you dare venture outside the friendly confines of YouTube and Hulu. A new service called Fuugo looks to clean that mess up a bit, offering to aggregate a variety of online services along with support for the full suite of digital over-the-air standards around the globe: one-seg for Japan and Brazil, DVB-H and DVB-T for Europe, and ATSC-M/H for North America. Fuugo's app is tailored for devices ranging from smartphones to touchscreen all-in-one PCs, featuring what appears to be a solid UI powered by gestures -- swipe to change channels, for instance -- that heaps content from various online and offline sources together into one hot mess of brain-melting programming. It's being shown off for the first time here at CES this week -- we'll be sure to track it down, but in the meantime, follow the break for the full press release along with a video preview.
