Global web video site Joost announced last week that it was adding 12 new content partners to its roster, stepping up its offering of original web series content. While a number of the new additions are traditional TV series, a new handful of primarily web series makers are on the list.

After ditching its clunky standalone application in favor of a flash-based web site, the site is now drawing just under 2 million global visitors monthly according to Quantcast, and claims 400 television series and 1,200 movie and short film titles. Incidentally, there’s also now a downloadable Adobe Air app if you still don’t want to rely on your browser.
