Everyday it seems like there is a new online technology/internet show. Get a good looking girl, edit the top stories from engadget or techmeme, spend an hour filming, another to edit, and finally upload.

But why!? It seems that it takes 10 minutes for these shows to give me the news that I previously just read in 2. Maybe they're just too early to the party, and are waiting for everyone to have an AppleTV type device.

I agree Jeff. More filler than meat in most shows it seems. A sad testament to human nature IMO.

And heck, I can see good-looking girls just sitting on my porch.

Why do you have good-looking girls sitting on your porch?

Heh... I meant me on the porch. They are walking down the sidewalk in this beautiful Texas sunshine.

Because video podcasting is all the rage nowadays. I have never understood the reason to make podcasts in the first place, and their video variety (including the ones on TV) is no better. Hopefully, this stuff will just die out, eventually, as all useless technology fads.
