Apparently it’s very possible that it might be! Chris Pirillo floated the idea of a new TechTV a while ago, and Leo Laporte picked up on it as well shortly thereafter, and we covered it here, but it looks like Chris is making progress on the idea, and more media outlets are picking up the [...]
According to BusinessWeek, Kevin Rose is worth something like $60 million US. Kevin Rose says in this week’s DiggNation [ http://diggnation.com/ ] that that couldn’t be farther from the truth and that he doesn’t even have the money for a new couch for his new place. Either way, it’s no doubt that Digg is a [...]
It’s been a while since we last had the opportunity to talk to the wondrous Becky Worley, and we’re glad she took the time out to talk to us about her most recent work, including her new show on Yahoo! Tech, Hook Me Up! [ http://tech.yahoo.com/hookmeup ] as well as her recent global travels hunting [...]
Chris Pirillo [ http://chris.pirillo.com/ ] posted an interesting idea on his blog, and a call to arms for all TechTV fans and fanatics: “Let’s Rebuild TechTV!” Pirillo believes that any future incarnation of TechTV would have to be sourced by the fan community that would love and nuture it and insulate it from the kidns [...]

update: Chris, of the Leoville Town Square Podcast fame, has updated us that on a recent LTS Podcast interview, he mentioned that Rogers is very close to getting Call for Help distributed on the net, possibly for a fee, which means that Call for Help fans could download their favorite episodes!

A TechTVForever tipster (thanks Uchendu!) passed along the note that Becky Worley is back in action with the launch of Yahoo!’s consumer-tech oriented website, Yahoo! Tech [ http://tech.yahoo.com/ ] that promises to be geared towards product reviews, buying tips and advice, and being a resource for people who are interested in a technology purchase; essentially [...]
A brand new podcast has hit the streets! Remember back when we broke the news that a new podcast with Chris DiBona was in the works? Looks like they went ahead and decided to call it FLOSS Weekly, which will cover all things open source, chat with the open source community and stay in touch [...]
Ten [ http://onten.net/ ] is a show created by Microsoft that features ex-G4 personalities Laura Foy and Tina Wood, that you may or may not remember from G4′s “G4tv.com The Show” or whatever the name really was. I hate to admit it, but I was never really a fan; I thought the G4tv.com television show [...]
Congratulations, Matt, Weezy, and Laura! That’s right, your favorite comedy podcast is headed for the top 10, and should be featured on the front page of the iTunes comedy podcast section with a banner and everything, and also in the “featured podcasts” section as well, right up there with another hilarious podcast we track for [...]
A few weeks ago, in an Adventures of Superman comic (#648, March ’06, to be precise), there was a panel where the artist obviously appreciated podcasting and tech programming, because in one of the scenes you can see some kids looting a store in a ravaged part of Metropolis wearing a TWIT jacket, a Command-N [...]
The Province, part of the Canada.com network, recently interviewed Andy Walker about the eventual expansion of hacking attacks and malicious code from the desktop PC to PDAs, cellphones, and even other handheld devices like portable music players like Apple’s iPod.

Well, part 2 is up now, and Kevin gives the interviewers (and readers) the lowdown on spam and personalization on digg, and the glory of the Digg Spy, which allows you to see a real-time version of what’s being dugg, added, or voted [...]

Andy Walker posted to the TechTV Forever yahoogroup [ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/techtv-forever/ ] that they’ve just logged their 500,000′s download of Lab Rats episodes, in part due to their ongoing and up to the second coverage of both the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) and the MacWorld Expo! He says: Just wanted to thank everyone for their ongoing [...]
Blatantly stolen from Digg [ http://www.digg.com/ ] it looks like the title is actually true. The digg poster of the original story wonders for a moment how the TechTV crew ever got the boot from the airwaves, and well, the answer is simple: niche marketing and the greed of G4 and Comcast execs. Luckily the [...]
Rumor has it that G4 Television has cancelled Call for Help for a second time. The news isn’t particularly surprising considering CfH’s horrible timeslot (11AM EST/8AM PST, then moved even earlier) and the channel’s horrible ratings overall. The channel’s ratings have plunged way below TechTV standards and even lower than G4′s pre-merger ratings, and people [...]
