Blip.TV has acted as a partner to mega digital ad agency Digitas in the creation of Holiday Inn Express' web series The Smart Show, according to Director of Advertising Sales Sam Stahl. It designed The Smart Show destination site and rounded up some of the "smartest shows" using its platform to run Holiday Inn express advertisements, including Beet.TV. A close working relationship with a large agency like Digitas demonstrates how a small web start-up can have a big influence. Blip.TV focuses on episodic content rather than personal videos, and has a largely open source platform. Disclaimer: Beet.TV uses Blip.TV as its video hosting platform. --Kelsey Blodget, Associate Producer
