Internet Revolution for old TechTV crew

Written by

, ,

Something is happening.   G4TV has made the mistake of releasing Mr. Kevin Rose from his contract on “Attack of the Show.”  Kevin is about to go buck wild and cause some sort of Internet revolution by releasing ground breaking HIGH QUALITY technical shows similar to what used to be on TechTV (before it was seduced by the Dark Side).  He is going to be hooking up with some Internet Celebs like:

Patrick

Leo Laporte

Dan Huard

Yosh-Dawg

Keith

 

O.k. all they need now is Alex Albretch (former SAIC employee), Kat Swartz (hottie who seems to have fallen off the face of the Earth) and Lockergnome (don't remember his name but its that guy that used to host Call For Help–man, I hated that show, but Lockergnome has a pretty kick ass site in my useless opinion). 

My only question is how the hell will they get paid.  Donations are cool but I'm not sure if donations alone will pay the light bills.  They shouldn't have a problem though.  Their names alone will get them $100K traffic and thousands of dollars in ads.  That is a winning combination.

This is a comprehensive list of all the most popular TechTV folks and where they are now.  from Redlobo dot com.

Here is Kevin's call to arms:

After several weeks of lawyer negotations with G4, they have agreed to release me from my contract.  Friday May 27th 2005 marks my last day on the G4 network.

I’m leaving G4 so that I can focus on what I love most, in-depth tech content. Starting with today’s premiere release of our new tech HOW-TO show ’Systm,’ we will begin to build a network of technology television programming from the ground up.  While Systm and thebroken will be our two flagship shows, in time, we hope to add more shows to the schedule with former TechTV cast members you all know and love.  All episodes will be released free of charge, in a variety of formats (Theora, Xvid, WMV, H.264, PSP), wrapped in RSS (for vidcasting), and liscensed under the Creative Commons.

How you can help –
– Spread the word: Post in message boards, blog about it, email/IM your friends.  Let anyone and everyone know that tech programming is alive and well.

– Sign up for the newsletter: Ecourage your friends and family to sign up for the systm newsletter so that we can keep you up-to-date with all the latest happenings.

– Help us distribute: Keep your bittorrent lines open after you finished the download.

– Advertise: Get your product or service in front of thousands of geeks!  Email: ads at systm dot org

GEEKS of the WORLD UNITE!!
