Feeling thankful

Wow. It’s been a nuts week. If you missed it, we were at CES where we did about 50 videos, two hours of video content, had about a month’s worth of video views and all-in-all had a nuts time.

I’m so happy for how everything has gone, and am thankful for our team both on and off site. Not to mention Wendy Gorman of the CEA, who hooked everything up for our studio.

I can’t describe how happy I am, and am thankful for everyone who’s supported TechVi thus far. Thank you so much.

Disapointments

I’ve got two major disappointments.

#1 – No way I’m going to be able to afford a Mac Pro for a while.  The configuration I’d like is going to cost around $4,000, and biz or no biz that’s not happening for a while.  I am, however, thinking about getting a few Mac Minis (two or three) and using them as dual-booting machines for a newly formatted tech check daily.  More about that later.

#2 – KCSG is horrible.  Like not just bad, but down right awful.  KCSG.com is so ugly I won’t give it the dignity of a link, their 9pm news is simply atrocious and seriously, they need help.  If I were running the show, I’d council them to get good at half an hour of news before branching out into two hours of HORRIBLE news.

iPhone day = Me on MSNBC tomorrow

So, everyone set your DVRs, I’m going to be on MSNBC on Saturday morning from 9AM to 11AM est talking iPhone.  It’ll be three segments about the device, so i’ll have it in their studios and we’ll be yuckin’ it up.

If you’re my friend, you’ll watch.

Lost: Watch it.

Wow.

I hated lost this season for a litany of reasons, but now I’m just asking why. I was blown away by the finale… but not by the deaths nor anything else but the last scene.

Lost’s best scenes this entire season were the first of the season and the last. By far.

Crap.  I just realized that there won’t be any answers for any of these bloody questions till 2008.  February 2008.

That is a freaking long time.  48 episodes to go.

I’m going to wait to talk about the episode till next week, since some people might not have had the chance to watch it yet. Till then, more packing for boston. Namaste!

Who could they kill?

Check out this image at Lostpedia. I’m wondering who out of those people you could kill and feel good about not needing them later. I think now that Claire has had her baby, she’s probably expendable. I look at the rest of them (sans Eko, since he’s already dead) and can’t figure out who else the producers are going to kill! Blast you lost, and your infernal plot twists.

(PS, I’m still going to watch every episode of lost, despite being frustrated.)

Why I hate TV News

This job… pays…

Yeah, that’s right… $18,000. People… stop going into TV news! Call me instead, and I’ll pay you that much… and you’ll change the world instead. Call me.

lost = awesome finally

Wow.

I thought I hated Niki and Paulo from Lost, but turns out their episode is the best episode to date on the show. Left me really angry and kind of gasping at the end. I just hope it all works out… as lost tends to not do.

If you didn’t watch last night’s lost, head to ABC.com and watch it. Even if you’re a peripheral fan.

Knights of Prosperity

Hey, I want to give a shout out to Knights of Prosperity. Funny show on ABC. Seriously tivo it or go to:

Watch some episodes.

For example… “This is not what I signed up for… I signed up to rob Mick Jaggar… not kill a columbian drug lord”

– New York City Cabbie.

It’s an awesome show. If you liked Arrested Development, you’d probably love this show. Give it a shot.
