The Rocket Science Group is looking for contributors for its new weekly gaming magazine style TV programme for Joost

Broadcast TV over the internet will never be the same again! The Rocket Science Group is about to launch "Frag" TV on the internet - in a world increasingly dominated by user generated video of 'variable' quality, the time has come for broadcasters to produce quality content specifically tailored for the web-user.

Where will I be able to watch Frag?

Frag will be premiering exclusively on the new Joost network in the summer. We're fantastically excited to be the main content provider of news, reviews and comments about the world of networked games for this pioneering new network, developed by the rather clever gentlemen who produced Kazaa and Skype

What we're looking for:

The Rocket Science Group is seeking journalists and games industry experts to contribute towards Frag TV on a show called 'Around the Net in 20 games'. We seek charismatic individuals with a passion for games to talk about the top 20 games to have influenced the internet over the last 17 years.

If you feel that you could provide what we're looking for, and are seeking televisual exposure then please get in contact by calling Ryan Dean on 020 7740 7740 or emailing your details to ryan@therocketsciencegroup.co.uk .
