BSkyB Tests Video-Sharing Site

LONDON, March 30: BSkyB
has launched a test version of SkyCast, a video-sharing site that will link
user-generated content with Sky’s programming.

SkyCast, powered by
Google’s syndicated video content tool, will allow users to upload video clips.

TV, mobile and broadband services. The site is set to launch formally in the
second quarter of this year.
