SeeSaw hits the deadpool! SeeSaw will be closing down on Monday the 2oth of June and its sad to see that the TV VOD aggregation service hasn’t taken off.

Arqiva the owner of SeeSaw explains: “Following a strategic review of its business activities… Arqiva is no longer able to support the service.”

SeeSaw aggregates TV VODs from BBC, Channel 4 and other UK Broadcasters. However, now that each channel has their own SeeSaw equivalent it seems as though users are heading to the individual sites instead of the aggregator.

It seems as though SeeSaw’s technology was greatly below that of the equivalent service in the USA, Hulu. Hulu has been growing very nicely in the USA and its a shame that SeeSaw could copy their success in the UK.

Yahoo! Buzz will be discontinued as of April 21, 2011. As of this date, you will be unable to access the Yahoo! Buzz site. This was a hard decision. However this will help us focus on our core strengths and new innovations. We appreciate your patronage. The Yahoo! Buzz Team.

Buzz was a solid community, but it didnt really have a strong design or strong community, so it was never going to be a leader in the social news market.
