I already direct Twittered Schlomo about this, but let me just say for the record I love this show. Video Instructables on Webshots? Brilliant. On 5/3/07, schlomo rabinowitz [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey all, I started a new show for CNet last week and we've put up the second episode.

A lot of web 2.0 types I know love the Farmer's Daughter. Not too far from AFI (I used to spend a LOT of time there). http://www.farmersdaughterhotel.com/ I'd say consider staying in Hollywood or West Hollywood rather than downtown -- it can make for a bit of a trip in the morning across

Forgot to mention -- Erin on our team here at NNN worked at AFI for several years and ran their Digital Content Lab there. I am sure she has a go-to list of places for people to stay -- it's how I found most of the places above. I'll ask her and re-post her recommendations.

Just wanted to thank everyone in the LA vlogging community who came for the Channel Frederator Awards party. It was lots of fun, and we've cut together some fun little things we did during the night with the award-winners into an 8-episode series for the site, starring videoblogger Justin

When asked about this once, Ze Frank was quick to say that it's only a very small percentage of his audience -- a fringe, really -- who interact with the show. But it's enough to be a really vibrant part -- and it ebbs and flows who participates, and he really cultivates it. The thing that I

Just read an interesting post on NewTeeVee about CNet's efforts to incubate videoblogs with cash grants. It sheds a little more light on the Project Spotlight campaign they announced last year -- for one thing, that Schlomo is involved, whom I mainly know from reading his posts on this list.

To me, it just shows how arrogant Apple has become. For over a decade now, thousands of people in the mobile business have been putting out hundreds of variations on the mobile phone that were dependable for being mediocre, baffling to use, and ultimately unsatisfying for the customer. For every
