In 3 hours, Pete Brown and I will be launching the pilot episode of a new video show we’re creating.
The show will cover all things geeky, both hardware and software, lots of micros, MIDI and Synthesizers, new and cool apps or dev tools, cool Kickstarter projects, and pretty much anything else Pete and I find that’s cool.
The show will be streamed LIVE on YouTube, and we’ll also record it for posterity, and will have it both on YT and on Channel 9 for later perusal.
We want YOU to participate, too. So at 3PM eastern time, please tune in at:
And feel free to ask questions, etc. in the comments.
We hope to make this fun and informative, and the more participation, the better!
Good job, guys! Of course, today was a lot of talk about how the show works, bugs in audio, etc and not so much talk about gadgets. I’m looking forward to the next one after everything is worked out. We were having terrible problems with internet connectivity at the office during the live event. I may have to watch it again to see the parts I missed.
Is this an official Microsoft show or just something you two are doing on your own?
Definitely more of a side project. Not official in any way. I’m sure we’ll cover lots of MS stuff, but we also want to range beyond just what we do in our day jobs.
A good example is the Espruino discussion, or the question of whether to get the latest Kindle e-reader.
The current plan for next week’s show is to talk about Kickstarter…what it is, some cool ongoing Kickstarter projects that we’ve found and/or backed, as well as a look back at some of the projects that Pete and I have backed in the past.
Oh, and naturally FEZ Game-O is on the agenda for that show.
Cool. It would be nice to add a Maker segment where you not only talk about commercial/Kickstarter projects but also highlight a project someone built in their garage.
I don’t think either of us intend for this to be some super-polished show like you’d see on TWiT, or something like that.
We love geeky stuff. We love talking about geeky stuff. We know other people love geeky stuff, so we hope they’ll tune in. Nothing more complicated than that.
FWIW, though, we do plan to have guests for future shows, so it won’t always be just Pete and me. We wanted to get a couple shows under our belts first, though, to iron out the technical bugs.
FYI, Episode 1 will air live today at 3pm eastern time.
Please join us…we’ll be discussing all things Kickstarter (and other crowdfunding), including projects we’ve found and/or funded, cool goodies we’ve already received from our previous backing, and more.
The forum still doesn’t seem to want to let me embed the video, so here’s the URL:
BTW - we now have a name for the show…but you’ll have to tune in to find out what it is.
Finally got a chance to look at Episode 0. Awesome!
I didn’t go through all the comments and reply, but is it possible to have a some sort of transcript/list with the titles of the apps/projects/devices you have talked about during the show?
