Omnisio (YC Winter 08) launches

I've been watching this post closely. First of all I don't think it ever made the top of the front page, which I think is odd for the techcrunch post covering the launch of a YC company.<p>Either the founders didn't make a lot of friends during the YC dinners or something more probable - everyone knows that Omnisio is a winner. Voting it up only reveals our own inadequacies.<p>Because as soon as I saw this I said wow, I wish I had thought of that, or better yet, I wish I knew how to do that. This product is going to rock the socks.

(Slightly off topic)<p>Any heavy flash video just crashes my browser (This app did). Really irritating :/ (MacBook, firefox 2.0.0.12 defaults) Is this just me, or a known issue with flash right now?

What about foreign users? When I add a comment, the US keyboard map is used!

Congratulations on the launch!<p>This seems one of the more tech-heavy startups from this round, at least from the outside. I think this has some real potential given the runaway success of YouTube, etc.<p>I'm not sure I like the overlay comments, but I suspect the Omnisio guys will work something out. Cut transitions are a little jarring at the moment, but I'm sure that can be fixed for version 1.1. :)<p>In any case, well done so far!

Just curious, how do they plan to make money?

I found it weird to put comments ON the video...but after the first one, it's addictive.

i think placing comments on the video's itself is pretty annoying. perhaps you can do it on a scrolling sidebar or something ?

I actually like the comments on the video, reminds me of mystery science theater but with text<p>well done guys

seriously guys...this is just awesome!
