Hulu to show Superbowl ads. New beta invites available now.

by Rafe Needleman

Surely a high point in Superbowl advertising history: GoDaddy's 2005 commercial.

I am man enough to admit that I am not a big football fan. Superbowl? Sure, I Tivo it. For the ads. This year, I'll be checking out Hulu's Superbowl site after the game. The site promises that all the ads will be up right after the game ends, in high-quality streams.

I like Hulu. When I travel, I tune in to it on my laptop instead of a hotel's TV. The service always has something dumb to watch, thanks to its relationships with network TV providers.

Hulu is still in private beta but there are 2,000 new Hulu invites waiting for Webware readers. The Superbowl archive won't go live until after the game, but you can nab your invite now.

i've been watching hulu for about 2 months or so and it is fantastic. there are some problems and glitches but over all the service is very smooth, the commercials limited to one advertiser per show and those commercials are short and not very annoying. i love hulu!

I have been using Hulu for a while, also. It is great! It does make you wonder what they could possibly be thinking in STILL keeping it in private beta and keeping everyone else out.

Recently I posted my take on the Hulu private beta here...

You can display subtitles in any size, any position on the video, move them dynamically with the keyboard, adjust the delay,
