It’s a good stable of old tv hands. They seem genuinely excited and baffled by this Wild New West of web videos. I like it.

[...] Jeff Jarvis has been blogging a lot about small TV and I agree with his comment that “the winners will be those who create and enable it.” I think that same sentiment applies to nonprofits that embrace these new capabilities and use them to create something remarkable. We have already witnessed a lot of nonprofit organizations that are leveraging YouTube, MySpace, and Second Life to reach their constituents in new ways. [...]

[...] BuzzMachine Â» Blog Archive Â» And God said, â€˜Itâ€™s TV, stupidâ€™ Jeff Jarvis takes a stab at describing Next New Networks, which I still don’t get. But I’m psyched! They’ve got a great team and some cash so hopefully, they’ll figure something out. (tags: media, nextnewnetworks) [...]

Not just TV alone, but the whole entertainment business. When music business executives find themselves digging through garbage bins for a bite to eat is when you’ll know that the revolution has truly done good.

Love the Fransworth reference even if 80-90% of your readership won’t get the reference.

Hi Jeff–

Great post! We’re Network2.tv , however (if you feel like an update). And it certainly is a new TV world out here.

Itâ€™s our TV now and the winners will be those who create and enable it.
The new TV will come in many flavors, as many as the tastes of the people.
We will still have the passive audience who will just turn on whatever monitor they have and simply watch.
Consuming whatever we sayâ€ the Convent passes”.
Then we will have the ones who make the “Best of” and this will be the majority.
Because it is like a blog where you concentrate the best of other blogs on a certain subject.
Then we will have the “creative TV” the one made with few means but a lot of imagination, which will be sometimes great and sometimes not so great.
And of course we will still have the traditional good TV.
Commercial or educational, it depends.
One thing will be common to all: the possibility for the audience to say what they think.
Sometimes it could even be something like a video game, where you have more possibilities.
It’s like the “comment” in a blog.
Some love it, some just ignore it.
Also that comes in many flavors…

Sounds like the content we’re working on may be just what they’re looking for. Creating content/community around ideas people are passionate about – that’s what we’re working to create in my new media venture.

Alas, I’m toiling away in my old media job today covering day one of the 110th Congress. There’s a statue of Philo Farnsworth in the Capitol. We TV guys always nod or tip our hats as we pass. Jeff, next time I pass him, I’ll say a special hello for you and everyone else who are helping create the new TV.

echy,
not a yahweh moment, no. just shifted from lower case to capital — a theological decision in itself — and killed Him in the process. thanks for the fix.

So how is this different from Youtube, Current TV, Daily Motion, ad nauseum? Ad supported niche video web sites – SFW

Well, entertainment world is completely different from the reality, yes they manage to merge them both but it is somewhere incomplete anyways.
