It's probably Derek's doing, as he's appearing on that show, talking about using the internet to cope and get information.

A piece about web communities and what some of them are doing. MeFi is #3.

wait, if they show metafilter when we're talking about them won't we all fall into a time warp or something?

On any other day - this thread would have continued with funnier and snappier lines. I don't think people feel like joking today. MiFi has been the place to collectivly deal with the shock. Find information. Ask. MiFi helped. Thankyou.

Cool. 'The Screen Savers' is my all-time favorite television program. Was anyone else shocked and amazed at Derek's voice?

I must say, TechTV has had the best and most effective coverage of all the networks I've seen thus far.

You should know that my voice is an octave deeper in real life.

Also, I'm 20 lbs lighter.

And blond.

Anyway, seeing that link to TechTV on MeFi in the middle of the interview was a much needed moment of levity. Thank you!

yea...techtv is cool.

screensavers.com did an excellent show tonight coverging the topics 'tech' and 'the current events'.

techtv is all I watch nowadays. I even hooked up a TV in my studio downstairs so I could watch it while misc. bands practice. the 90 minutes after the screen savers come on at 7 pm is usually my time to go and put on my weights and practice drumming (turned up ultra-loud, of course!)

plus, megan morrone is HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT! does anyone know if she is married?

TechTV has now fulfilled all my information needs when it comes to obnoxious flying erasers destroying screen text.
