Oprah Winfrey called it “the most exciting thing I have ever done” as she opened the first of 10 Internet broadcasts of her book club to discuss A New Earth.
“Welcome to our very first live, worldwide interactive event,” she said. “We are here tonight breaking new ground. Nothing like this has been done before.”
The first of a weekly series of broadcasts on March 3 which drew 800,000 viewers from 139 countries was made possible by a Utah company, Move Networks Inc., which has quickly made itself into a leader in broadcasting television over the Internet.
Incorporated only two years ago, the company with headquarters in American Fork has developed cutting-edge technology that smooths the flow of television signals to computer screens and makes possible high-quality broadcasts.
