This is in line with trying to make TVGuide.com into a community-driven site: its parent Gemstar-TV Guide International has done some more small online acquisitions, after buying Jumptheshark.com last year. It has bought several TV-focused site: TVShowsOnDVD.com, TV-now.com, and FansofRealityTV.com, as well as some assets of TV listings startup eVokeTV. Terms were not disclosed.
Evoke closed down its service in September last year…TVGuide plans to re-launch the Evoketv.com site later this year. The site was devoted to bringing community and personalization features to TV scheduling information.
