- molszews, on 10/12/2007, -14/+52comments like "front page with XX diggs? ZOMFG!!!!!" are a complete waste...notice how yours is modded down almost instantly. I'm sure this will be too, but hopefully you will get the point. Therefore I hate you.
- gwjc, on 10/12/2007, -1/+38Wow that post-gazette has it's fingers on the pulse. Oh well, fun to see it talked about in the mainstream anyway.
- davetcg, on 10/12/2007, -2/+22The writing is a lot better than you get in the papers where I live.
"(I am convinced that G4 stands for "Gee, I've seen that 'Star Trek' episode 4 times.")"
ROLLING! - Philbert, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18Uh, they didn't talk about it ON digg.com, they talked about it in a newspaper. Which was then posted to Digg.com. I'm not so sure you know how Digg works.
- psbpv3o, on 10/12/2007, -2/+20What ever happened to that Kevin Rose guy? He dropped off the planet.
"He's on Diggnation. Just Google it."
"Diggnation"
wow...That was the most blatant use of sarcasm I have ever seen and you guys fell for it. Idiots.
Amber is on Call for help with leo. She's cute..... - M2Ys4U, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18Whatever happened to sarcasm, seems people can't understand it here on Digg.
- adml_shake, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19What are these "podcasts" that you speak of? Do I have to have an Ipod to listen to them?
[/sarcasm] - bjack, on 10/12/2007, -2/+18What ever happened to that Kevin Rose guy? He dropped off the planet.
- bluflame, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15It's just a friendly reminder of how much G4 sucks.
I still don't know why they named thier network after a PowerPC processor.
I dugg. - adeboer, on 10/12/2007, -5/+18This would have been relevent about a year ago.....old news
.....--> and in other news, dinosaurs are extinct! - SAOSiN, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14no way!!!!!!!
Dinosaurs! - Technopundit, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15"Back With a Vengeance"??
Be calm.
Do they have weapons? - joelmole, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12"Norton, who enjoyed destroying technology gadgets with a sledgehammer on "The Screen Savers," and Herron talk tech on their free video podcasts at DL.TV and also available on iTunes."
Reading! All the cool kids do it! Yeah! - aaron157, on 10/12/2007, -13/+24WOW! This is news to me. Old Tech TV Guys Doing Podcast. Who would have ever figured this one out if it wasnt for this wonderful website.
Stupid, pointless, and and a year and a half to late. NO DIGG!!!! - ShinAkuma, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13It's funny to write and put up an article about the return of the TechTv stars after they've had their podcasts for well over a year.
- eqisow, on 10/12/2007, -7/+18NO WAI!
(Sorry, it's reflex) - uselessexpert, on 10/12/2007, -14/+25Dude....what is your problem?
Some of us have lifes and jobs, and don't spend 23 of the 24 hours of our day in front of a computer keeping up with everything that goes on.
I was wondering what had happened to the "real" Screen Savers. I am glad this story made it to digg.com for the rest of us that don't have all the time in the day to keep up... - dbug, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13"If that rambling, all-over-the-place piece of crap is what passes for journalism, I need to switch fields and do that for a living."
I think you should, you seem to be pretty good at it. - pennyfan87, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11Buzz Out Loud's Tom Merritt, anyone?
- cquinnd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10Dvorak was one of the founding members of TechTV/ZDtv.
- TheZorch, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11This one gets a Digg from me! I miss the original TechTV. It was great and I watched "The Screen Savers" and "Call For Help" almost religiously. G4 killed off a great network. Thank god for podcasts!
- JimXugle, on 10/12/2007, -12/+20YaRly!
- ramsinks.com, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Where have you been?
- AZNundercover, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9... and what's this website I keep hearing about.... digg.com i believe is what it is. Anyone heard of it?
- ccanni1028, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7What is G4's claimed market? "Shows about games, by gamers, for gamers".
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it funny that the most popular gaming show on the network is XPlay, which is actually not a true G4 show, but an original TechTV show? - Cmain, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8I actually live about 30 miles from Pittsburgh and it is a fairly popular newspaper in this area. Glad to see this.
- ApplCmptrDood, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Not all of us know that TSS was before TWiT - hell I didn't even know the screensavers and G4 ever existed before TWiT came along.
- TylerLavite, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8i do miss techtv alot,i think its funny how they say on diggnation Kevin and a co-host "sometimes sit and drink beer" there isent an episode without beer! maybe one or two. but i love that show, and greatly miss the screen savers. this was a good article
I dugg. - Technopundit, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10Fine. Just leave that Pirillo kid on the shelf. He has no mass appeal and fights like a girl.
- silly, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9it's awesome that they just refer to alex as "a co-host"
- captainchris, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Martin Sargent also does a monthly podcast called 'infected' on www.revision3.com check it out if you liked Unscrewed.
- dbug, on 10/12/2007, -7/+13Oh god how I hate live poker crap on TV. This stupid poker hype is so fking lame it hurts.
- Philbert, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8So everyone in the world knows the history of The Screen Savers?
- albybum, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6CornStarch :
How do you figure?
He was the host of Silicon Spin. - Steve95613, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6"Norton, who enjoyed destroying technology gadgets with a sledgehammer on "The Screen Savers," and Herron talk tech on their free video podcasts at DL.TV and also available on iTunes."
How much more of a mention do we need?? - NinjAlt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Correction. Paul Allen killed your beloved network. Not G4.
- Technopundit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5She talks like a surfer.
- Technopundit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5The don't drink beer, they almost bathe in it. It's hilarious, and the fans love it.
- gfailure, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8I had a job last year that required me to watch it. I lasted about three weeks.
- ccanni1028, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6The sad part is that they are talking about them all getting back together, but they don't even mention UndoTV.
http://chris.pirillo.com/2006/08/14/techtv-undotv/ - cquinnd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5She's technically not an alumni of the TechTV studios in San Francisco.
And she still has her old day job. - compu73rg33k, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6Yeah, so wait who is that Kevin Rose guy they briefly mentioned?
- deleuex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4no tech TV is the #1 reason why I don't pay for cable TV
- Noloco, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4You forgot Cranky Geeks
- G33k0ft3chz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Yea there back,and Pat has his Sledgehammer,Leo has all of his tech goodies and I would belive Kevin has all of his mone..I mean his broken beer bottles..and anything else you can think off..Techtv is back..And its UndoTv!
- uselessexpert, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7Couldn't agree with your more. G4 is a waste of time these days. TechTV was a real tech channel. G4 feels like is Nickelodeon for geeks...
- spid3rfly, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Yeah, I love how they just posted this article. Twit and KFI has been on well over a year and a half now. Digg just went over a year a month or so ago. He didn't even include all the podcasts.
It is nice to see this in the mainstream, but the "post gazette tech guy"....did he just not have anything else to report? Get with the times. - pitaman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4It's good to see them trying to make a comeback.
Many people are still bitter about the G4/Tech TV merger disaster. Including myself.
I enjoyed it when they were two seperate channels. Now even G4 is becoming a Spike TV clone. What a bunch of monkey feces. Two cool channels were totally ruined by a bunch of money grubbing suits.
Oh well...money talks. - appleswitch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I enjoyed, and dugg, the article for piece of mind, not information. there's nothing I enjoy more than seeing something I would like everyone to know displayed in a mainstream way.
I almost shouted when I saw Kevin on the cover of business week, grabbed the newspaper, handed the cashier all the money in my pocket and almost forgot to pay for my soda. - ccanni1028, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3G4 won't let them. TWiT was originally going to be called RoTSS, Return of The ScreenSavers. They want as much money for the rights to the name TSS as they paid for everything when they bought TechTV.
