HGTV Video Guide. See also the partner sites: Living.com and Food Network. Streaming TV channels 24 hours a day.

IE 7
June 29, 2006I hear people say we are heading for a new browser war. Maybe. It’s important because the browser is our first port of call with the external world, the tool we use to encounter the network of networks. There could hardly be a more important piece of software.

Podcasts
June 26, 2006Pluggd podcast community launched today
Seattle based start-up Pluggd opened their podcast directory for public use today; the company aims to make podcast listening easier for nontechnical users.
That’s the take from TechCrunch. Interesting how podcasting is getting organised. I’m hoping to launch my own podcast series next week which is part of the reason I’m spending a day in Dublin, sitting in with Microsoft Vista developers and then with podcastingireland.ie sorting out the pod.
As a journalist I never did radio but like everybody else now there’s nothing stopping me.

He feels that most of the video sites snag all the digital rights they can and make money on the backs of other people's work. Which sites? You(tube) know which ones.

This is a fascinating development, fascinating because few people have been thinking critically about the You Tube type business model.
Blip.tv is not to be confused with bliptv.com.
Cross Platform
June 21, 2006The Standard (the London evening paper) is trialing a broadband TV portal service, which will allow users access to on-demand video footage of news stories and user-generated content, on the Cube TV platform. Video classifieds would be broken down into sections like property and entertainment.
UK: Standard to launch broadband TV portal – Editors Weblog
An interesting one for people who wonder what the growing number of IPTV players are up to and how the IPTV platform providers will ultimately divide the market.
Personally I'd always assumed the multichannel portal would have been a user-generated knowledge base.
