Video + PodCasts = IPTV!

Ok so now you are comfortable with the idea of podcasts how about if I tell you about the next step of portable multimedia goodness. IPTV, this is a video based show distributed on-demand via the internet. IPTV for now is totally free for the end users (you the viewers), all you have to do is find these shows. I can assist you with finding a few technocentric IPTV shows that the Geek watches on the regular. One easy place to start is peek into the podcasts I listen too for some places to start.This Week in Tech - has grown from just a podcast to a vidcast, stop by Twit.tv and you can see the many different video versions available for download. There are lots of different formats, H. 264, Ipod compatible, and PSP compatible to name a few. Diggnation - more familiar voices turned into familiar faces. If you thought that the podcast was funny seeing Kevin spill beer on his laptop is a lot more funny then hearing it :) You can download this directly from www.diggnation.com or subscribe to it via iTunes. A few more shows that are available from Revision3 are Systm, The Broken and upcoming Ctrl-Alt-Chicken.Digital Life TV (or just DLTV) - Patrick Norton & Robert Herron host this IPTV show, and for the record this is the most professional IPTV show I watch. These guys are pros doing what they have experience doing, a television show about technology. This is the first IPTV show that I have seen that actually uses real commercial breaks, with real commercials. This should totally be on your short list of shows to watch every week.CommandN.tv - A great weekly IPTV show that covers all kinds of technology from a slightly mac-centric point of view. There are 3 folks on camera Amber Mac, Mike Laz and Jeff Mac. Lots of info here in this 20-30mins plus a lively and fun atmosphere.OpenAlpha.tv - Proving time and again that girls are gamers, Jenn Cutter takes us from World of Warcraft through PSP Titles.Fromtheshadows.tv - A few of the old Screensavers folks come together and do some strange hacks, real world testing, and interviews. A very well done show and nice to see Yoshi back in modding action :)hak5.org - This is a monthly show that honestly is fantastic, new and innovative for the IPTV world because it actually does scripted geekcentric spoofs and segments. I am truly looking forward to the 5th of every month when we have been promised a new episode from Darren, Wess and the rest of the guys.Please feel free to send me an excited email when you come across a new IPTV show that you think should be added to this short list.Well this blog has taken forever, lots going on with me and mine including my 31st Birthday, please bear with me there will be more blogs on the way.For now...This geek is outta here! PEACE
