So as you've all have heard by now, Vessel is shutting down, which to me, is sad. I joined Vessel solely to just watch Linus's early releases but now that the platform is gone I have no where to watch my daily dose of the Linus Media Group team. After watching Linus's status update on Vessel, I came up with an idea. Here is some background before I begin, I've worked as a Web Developer for about a year at a sports broadcasting company where I was first contracted to create a video management CMS. I also have extensive knowledge of HLS streaming using the JWPlayer and live broadcast technologies. Now that the mini-resume is complete, here's the idea; build a early access release platform that can also be built to handle live streams for a special access pass or something like that, let the marketing guys handle the purpose, i'm just the developer. Ad support, if wanted, is easy to integrate as well as statistics. This platform wouldn't be far off from my original CMS I built for the sports broadcasting company. I ask that if anyone from the LMG team who is just a tad bit interested by my proposal, send me a private message and I'll send over a copy of my resume and answer any questions about my proposal ether through email or over the phone. If your a Vessel user like me, leave a comment with ideas and suggestions and help bring some attention to my proposal so that we can get a replacement to our beloved Vessel.
