current.tv

Many forecasters are hedging their bets on the idea that in the very near future traditional television, newspaper and radio newsrooms will not exist in the way that they do now. More and more content will be provided by who else, but the viewer, reader or listener. Blogs themselves are the spawn of this new way of sharing information, and even though most of us only speak our minds or talk about our day at work, it is this technology that will lead the way to this big change.

Have you ever been a viewer of "current tv?" Current is the latest effort by Google to turn the corner so to speak, with all content featured, provided by the viewer. If you have a DV camera of some sort, a desktop editor and a good eye, current accepts the solicitation of your creative package, evaluates it, and if good enough, puts it on the air. That means that it can end up being sent to satellite systems around the globe.

Tune it in. If you are a DISH or Direct customer it's easy to find. To learn more about the channel and this new media effort head over to current.tv and read more. It will open your mind to what news in media will become over the next 5 to 10.
