Podcast Pickle is a great site. There’s no argument there.
One vidcast in particular that I like is Kidcast.tv – Free Children’s IPTV Network. They do things that I have often wanted to do, like take apart a cell phone. It is much less cost-prohibitive to watch this vidcast than to do it yourself. 
I am, by no stretch of the imagination, a liberal. I do, however, have a basic respect for the environment and being a responsible human in general. The flagship show on ViroPop is Taproot and it is quite well done, even by my exceedingly high right-wing standards.
—- Watch it in my VodPod ———->
I thought it was funny, well thought out, and the graphic presentation is very hip. I would like to make one slightly demeaning comparison. The host of Taproot did remind me of a certain overly-perky vidcast host of a certain show called Geek Brief. Which happens to annoy me enough that I won’t watch Geek Brief anymore, even if it did have good information once in a while. I can only take so much of watching a grown woman act like a three year old. Boy, am I going to get some flyback on this posting…
Ah, the proverbial Geek paradise. G4 has great shows that are professional, stream nicely, and have content that blows your socks off. Technology, Sci-Fi, movies; keep an eye on the clock because you’ll need to pave yourself. I pretty much like everything there, except maybe the shows telling me about other television shows…that I don’t watch. Have we really gotten that desperate for content??
Just goes to show, you don’t need cable or satellite. Geeky goodness is just a click away.
Now, Disney has offered it’s TV shows over the net for some time now. My kids watch many of the shows that they wouldn’t normally see because we don’t have a television service. They are launching a brand new way to interact with the games, shows, etc. on their site that is the heaviest use of “web 2.0″ style I have seen so far. Check out DXD (Disney Digital Extreme) and click around. Move the panels, make the viewable big and small. Click the video button toward the top and get a screen with everything that has to do with the show of your choice splashed all over. Kids are going to love this. And if you think they won’t know how to use the new interface…you’re fooling yourself.
If you have a beta (and I don’t mean fish) fetish like I do, you may have come across this http://protopage.com/v2 . Absolutely fabulous.
Plus, I picked up a few new (to me) podcasts and vidcasts that I am currently getting an earful of so that I can write about them. I have taken a decidedly twisted turn into sploiting lately and have also become obsessed with 600613. Would it be okay if I started reviewing other streams not on iTunes….? And since when have I ever asked permission for anything? Ha.
