Social networking developer Slide—perhaps best known for hts FunSpace and Top Friends social networking applications—has inked a deal with major media companies to distribute video content on the popular social networking site Facebook via a new application called FunSpace Channels. Partners include Warner Brothers, CBS Interactive, and Comcast’s E! Entertainment channel—plus Hulu, the online video joint venture between NBC Universal and News Corporation. Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but Slide says it has ad revenue sharing agreements with “key partners.” Some reports have Slide both selling ad space in the channels directly, as well as participating in revenue sharing in ads run by its media partners.
