(SEATTLE, Wash.) - Being glued to the Internet through my role here at Salem-News for almost five years, I've acquired a pretty good sense new media ideas that are hot.

One new business that's burning rubber on the information autobahn is Yellow Jacket Media. They are bringing the United States new face to face interactions between customers and business. The interactive auto lot is the sizzling ticket right now; It's kind of like Maxwell Smart meets Cal Worthington.

Here's how it works: the customer visits an auto dealership's Website on their computer. The sales associate appears, inquires as to what the customer is looking for in a car, and then takes a laptop computer with a special camera out to the very car that has attracted the customer's interest.

The auto sales associate shows the customer anything and everything they want to see. Audio allows a perspective car buyer hear how the vehicle runs and ask questions. Video lets the customer inspect the condition of the interior and body.

The list of businesses that can use this service is long. They include home, R.V., pets, assisted living centers are other retailers that are implementing the services of Yellow Jacket Media.

Yellow Jacket Media and Virtual Cyber Sales was founded in the summer of 2008 by Scott Tanner with the idea to help businesses in a "bleak" and deteriorating economy.

Having a background in the media and automotive industries - Scott realized that their needed to be something created to put customer in front of retailer on a casual basis.

Seeing the potential to change the way of the future- -Yellow Jacket Media contacted the worlds largest streaming video company (Justin.TV)- to create a business that could take an idea to reality.

Justin.TV

Kevin Lin joined the company when Justin.TV was known as a lifecasting service, but the site has now evolved into so much more. Like YouTube, Twitter, MySpace and other phenomenally successful Internet technology ventures, Justin.TV went from non existence, to millions of visitors, very quickly.

He explains the Justin.TV's fast-growing audience by saying, "The site really gives people an open platform that enables them to share a social experience through live video. So whether people are using the site to fight crime (justin.tv/adamsblock), entertain (justin.tv/allamericanrejects), or inform (justin.tv/spacevidcast), there’s really something for everyone on Justin.tv."

Lin says it is important to remain at the forefront of online broadcasting with the largest global audience, highest scale, and the largest library of content.

This unique video service is exactly what the team at Yellow Jacket Media needed to power their new business from point to point.

"We hope to become an additional outlet for content owners to reach a larger global audience more efficiently," Lin said.

Justin.TV has the largest audience of any live video site and the highest scale and reliability in the industry. justin.tv also has the ability to specifically target ads to the relevant geographic that partners are interested in reaching.

Unlike other video sites that have come and gone over the years, Kevin Lin says Justin.TV is here to stay.

As it stands, justin.tv is the largest online community for people to broadcast, watch and interact around live video, offering real-time connections with others around the world.

According to figures released by Quantcast as of 3/25/09, 41.4 million monthly unique visitors, and 412 million monthly page views. These are huge numbers that reflect the growing trends of an online society.

Along with Justin.TV, Yellow Jacket Media is now the world's first business to target this unique face to face interaction capability.
