Kyte Clarifications

Hi, this is Gannon from Kyte. I'd like to clarify a few issues raised by your article:

Your article compares kyte.com to qik.com. First off, Kyte.com is our corporate site, not our service, so this comparison is irrelevant. Our service is kyte.tv. Secondly, Kyte is not a destination, but an enabling technology. 99% of our traffic occurs outside of kyte.tv, on partner destinations, personal blogs, social networks, and mobile devices. If you do a comparison, I suggest you use ComScore, who at least attempt to measure off-destination "widget" traffic.

You are correct in that we do not see Qik as a competitor. Our business models are very different. Kyte is a universal digital media platform, of which live mobile streaming is but one component. This feature gets a lot of attention in the early adopter press, but for our partners it represents one of several ways (including pre-produced video uploads, mobile email, mobile record and upload, live webcam, APIs, etc.) they can produce and distribute digital content.

Thanks,
Gannon
