UStream.TV Gets Some Cash And General Wesley Clark Says TechCrunch!

ustream-logo.pngWhat does General Wesley Clark know about live Web video? Apparently enough to land him a seat on Ustream.TV’s board of advisors. Or maybe they just liked his shiny medals. The company also announced a funding round today from Band of Angels and Western Technology Investors, which specializes in debt financing for startups. The amount was not disclosed. Are these the same people that bellyache that they can't hire a janitor to clean their offices but they get a 4 star retired general on the board of advisors? WOW! Who they kidding? They are 'phishing' for some credibility and they are willing to pay for it! What also is interesting that we found out they don't have a "hiring Freeze" as they say they do. Ustream you getting so obvious. A bit of tact goes a long way!
