Best Videos of 2007?

By John Freeman on January 9, 2008

It’s the time of year for “Best of..” lists and a look back at highlights of 2007, and here at downthetubes we thought our readers might be interested on what made it into the animated “all star” highlights over at Joost, one of the new ways of watching TV on the internet featuring thousands of shows and more than 400 channels in broadcast quality.

According to our friends at the company, over four million people downloaded the free service last year.

The top videos include Count Duckula and Wallace & Gromit, which stood out as some of the best loved for Joost from their growing library of 20,000-plus videos.

To see those clips on Joost and discover who also made it to the list, download the Joost viewer (available for Windows or Mac OSX) and then head over to www.joost.com/featured/bestof2007/
