Can We do this with other media companies now ? Now that Dave Winer has done a deal with the NY Times, how long will it take for other media outlets to get in on the act ? We don't all read the NY Times. So Dave.... who's next on your hit list while building up this meta-web community of yours on the backs of the blog-net ? 11:30:47 PM    Notes [] How do you pick the life story show to watch ? How many different varieties of shows are there on tv that concern themselves with someone's life history or some aspect of it ? Regular shows, not the Barbara Walters Special kind of thing. Hmmm. Interview oriented Bravo's Inside the Actors Studio Bravo's Musicians E!'s Revealed with Jules Asner Oxygen's Carrie Fisher interview show Documentary style A & E's Biography Lifetime's Intimate Portrait VH1's Behind the Music I'm sure I missed one. The interview shows seem to pander to the person involved though Inside the Actor's Studio seems to do it the least but it is also the only one where the audience consists of people in the same profession or at least who want to be. Musicians is the one that seems to most scripted. You know they were given the questions before hand. But at least there is music to even it out. Unfortunately, Jules Asners' show has the slickest, fluffy glossy magazine feel to it like someone took a 5 minute Entertainment Tonight piece and used that as the model for an hour long show. Very painful to watch. 10:59:12 PM    Notes [] It's a bad TV evening when... the trailer for the new Spiderman movie is looking better than almost anything on, even the FoodTV Network. Or at least until Bruce Campbell showed up in The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.pilot on TNN. Oddly enough, he's listed as having a bit part in Spiderman. It's almost enough to drive me back to work for the rest of the evening. 9:50:32 PM    Notes [] Lunch time. A very important time if you have a home office. Do I: Go outside and enjoy the sun Catch up on some bills catch up on the news for the day keep working do something outside - yardwork, etc. Just veg.... clear my brain for the rest of the day run some errands Actually eat lunch... Hmmmmm..... 12:16:24 PM    Notes []
