Joobili on The Gadget Show

Nov 10th, 2009 by admin

I am in London for the World Travel Market and last night I was relaxing after a long day when the Joobili twitter account suddenly started buzzing. Apparently Joobili was featured on a UK television program called The Gadget Show. We were the number 2 best website you have never heard of – well not you – but the average Brit has never heard of. While I’d much rather be among the top websites everyone has heard of,  you have to start somewhere, right.

Now I have no idea how popular this show is so I would be curious to hear from anyone in the UK whether this is a popular show or a late-night space filler. [UPDATE: Found out this shows airs on Monday nights at 8pm and has a viewership of over 1 million] Either way, it sent a big enough wave of traffic to Joobili.com last night that the site crashed and we had to scramble to get it back up again. So without further adieu I present Joobili’s television debut:

While I’m on the subject, we also received high scores from the Daily Mail as the Website of the Week.

    How popular is the Gadget Show? Well it's on at 8pm on a Monday night and the previous episode had 1.64m viewers ( http://www.barb.co.uk/report/weeklyTopProgramme... ) and was the 5th most watched program on that channel that week and meant that 3% of the entire population of the United Kingdom were watching. It's the only 'populist' technology TV show on British mainstream television (with BBC Click taking the traditional line). The show is aimed at the younger tech fan and has enough backing to run their own trade exhibition ( http://www.gadgetshowlive.net/ ) which had 30,000 visitors in it's first year.
