It's a Web, Web, Web 2.0 world

Myubo

Myubo lets you upload and watch videos. So far, it's no YouTube -- in May, the website had just over 3,000 uploaded videos available in a dozen different categories. But we think this startup has potential because it doesn't want to be a YouTube competitor. It wants to be an alternative for those Slovak and Czech users who do not want their creation to be lost in the tangle of videos on YouTube. Myubo already has more than 2,000 registered users, and offers live streaming of TV content from Al Jazeera news channel, Slovakian TV 3 and a Czech Parliament TV feed.

CEO: Igor Rintel

Location: Bratislava, Slovakia
