If you read this blog you know I’m a fan of a la carte TV. As it should – the web has facilitated this desire through piracy and the realization from the powers that be that the market is pushing this direction. Regardless – distribution of tv and media via the web is the future. And Clicker is here to organize all that chaos.
You see each network (much like newspapers, etc) refuse to distribute their content outside their realm of control so we now have a system of content silos. You can watch TV on Hulu, Netflix, Amazon, NBC.com, South Park Studios, etc, etc. This is a problem for consumers because we are used flipping on the TV and drilling through hundreds of channels with all the content in one place.
Clicker aims to solve that problem.
Clicker is the complete guide to Internet Television. Our mission is to make it simple for you to find the right show, right now.
As massive amounts of programming move online, consumers entering a world of infinite choices, all on-demand. Great! Finding the show you want to watch? Painful. Thousands of episodes from thousands of shows are housed on thousands of different sites, mixed among billions of random clips and videos.
Clicker catalogs all broadcast programming online, along with TV-quality Web originals, from these silos and delivers them in one seamless, organized experience so you can easily discover what’s available to watch (and what isn’t) online, where to watch it, and what’s worth watching.

I would love an invite to this.
This looks like a great concept and is about time someone came up with a solution to pull the content out of the silos. Now if only "they" would make the catalog of episodes of a series available online and not on physical media, i.e. The Simpsons or Seinfeld. I would greatly appreciate an invite.

Not necessarily prefer, but yes I would like to see more of that concept that I can search for through Clicker.
