Review of ROTSS Episode 2

I saw episode 2 of the ROTSS which is now called TWIT or This Week in Tech.  I think it is a great show.  It is like the Screen Savers to the 2nd power because you've got Leo Laporte, KRose, Patrick Norton, and Robert Heron (even Dovorak show up, kind of). 

I listened to the podcast right after seeing Systm.  Systm is great but it doesn't give me the feel of being the Screen Savers.  TWIT definitely delivered.  They talked about Hitch Hiker's Guide the the Galaxy, they talked about the trailer for Serinity.  They went tech and discussed Long Horn and OS X and some old formats that didn't work.  They talked about Digg.com and boxedthoughts.com.  They even took a couple of audio emails.  I am impressed.  I will be surprised if no one picks these guys up to do another Screen Savers like show.  Unfortunately, the best candidate would be G4TV. 

You know I don't have anything bad to say about any of the tech show (Broken, Systm or TWIT).  I guess it would be like a starving man complaining about a cracker.  There is such a void on TV when it comes to actual tech.  Yet its the Information Age and our reliance on computers and the Internet continue to grow exponentially at scary proportions.  It will always amaze me that G4 did not take advantage of the existing market that was held by TechTv.  It has pushed us all completely on line to get the content we crave.  The original crew have really formed a bond with their viewers that is begining to approach Trekie level… o.k. maybe not that crazy.

 

p.s. thebroken kicks TWITS ASSSS!! They just need to get Leo Laporte on there.  Get Leo in some fly Pimp Gear, put a hoe on each arm and them let him school us on Mac hacking.  That would be the SHIZNIT!
