i bend my knees infront of thee and beg for joost invite

Joost is a internet (P2P) TV application. Its a startup floated by the co-founders of Skype and kaaza. Following Gmail they are using "invitation only" marketing campaign.

And its very difficult to get an invite. Check the chat I had a with a friend ;-)

me: wats ur stat ? ( status in google talk) galexy: search joost me: hmmm invite undel thaaa ;-) ( translates to : please please give me an invite) i will try is it good ? galexy: NO WAY u have to go down on your knees and beg me: im doing it galexy: i am not seeing it :D desperate me: oh i bend my knees infront of thee and beg for joost. galexy: :) ok.. and u shall be called bandipur bayangaran poor me: as u wish ... any more wishes ? galexy: nope me: then u should act ... galexy: giving it

Finally I my dear friend 'galexy' [g :-) ] sends me a joost invite and I got the app downloaded. (There is a desktop client which will stream the media from the network. Sadly GNU/Linux is not supported!) But looks like they haven't added HTTP proxy support. Looks like its tricky to support proxies as the application uses P2P networks.

The error message I got was quite funny. It said: 'You seem to be connecting internet via something called a "proxy" '

(Well, I hope I could properly configure the NAT at my home and get rid of the Squid proxy - thanks to the sify internet connection(?) I am using)
