While talking about the importance of metadata in Joost, Janko Roettgers quotes a comment explaining how meta data will reshape the way we watch television

“Imagine watching a show like Heroes once, and then watching it again with comments turned on to see what other people caught that you missed.”

He also offers some insights about what a meta data driven television programming can offer

Imagine a personalized TV channel that only serves you shows your friends are literally talking about. Or think about the way this could transform programming itself. What if the Lost folks didn’t do their next Alternative Reality Game on the web, but in Joost itself, allowing you to collaborate with your friends and collect clues while watching the show?
