Internet TV Age Is Dawning, but Who Will Watch?

[Archived in Entry]

[indieWIRE BLOGS > Docu-Blog/Steve's POV] Former vice president Al Gore chairs a new company that hopes to launch a cable channel called Current ( http://www.current.tv/ ) on Aug. 1 with a heavy Internet emphasis. Current is already inviting audience participation by letting Internet users submit videos that viewers will eventually be able to watch and rate. In addition to professionally produced videos aimed at young people, Current plans to air many user-created videos and will display data from Google about what people are searching for online.

Al Macintyre's Radio Weblog: Many search engines give us the choice of searching the whole internet, just that one site, or just the sites run by a particular company.  I want a sub-category to be a group of people who have created Radio Userland documentation, in which we can adjust the list of sites involved, perhaps have new ones and url changes communicated to us via News Aggregation.  I also want a system of aliases, in which some feature might be known by different names to people familiar with different kinds of Weblogging software vendors, or may be commonly confused with some similarly appearing interface with other Computer software.

Al Macintyre's Radio Weblog: When I was first told about Radio Userland technology, early in 2002, I had a hard time grasping what it was all about.  Now that I know how to work some pieces of it, and I tell various friends, who themselves are not yet Bloggers, they too have a hard time accepting what I am saying.  So I think there is a need for a series of explanations that describe our phenomena for the person who today is still on traditional pre-blogging e-technologies.

Al Macintyre's Radio Weblog: Japanese expansion meets Tsarist Russia, knocks out 7 Russian battleships at Port Arthur at a cost of 2 Japanese, so the Tsar sends a totally inadequate fleet to reinforce that front.  In the North Sea, the Russians encounter some British fishing ships and mistake them for the enemy.  In consequence British coaling stations all along the Russian route are denied them.  The Japanese twice crossed the T of the Russian column  The battle was the most complete naval defeat in history, and its news provoked the 1905 Revolution, opening the door to Lenin.

Al Macintyre's Radio Weblog: When it comes to those precious few hours, my real brainstorming returns to Radio and the notion of packaging a real book (online, natch) for ordinarily intelligent people getting into Radio for the first time - 180-200 pages? I will rework pages already done on this site and elsewhere and add another 100 pages ... with significantly more polish and care.
