Call for Crowe

As promised, here's the little movie I shot on my Olympus C3040 digital camera for Call for Help. It's an MPEG-4 but it's still a 1.6 meg download. You'll need Quicktime 6 to play it.

John and John Are On

The Screen Savers "house band," They Might Be Giants will be back in house Tuesday, April 29, performing several songs live on the show. TMBG were among the first to offer music directly to fans, first via telephone, later over the web, and they still offer free MP3s of their music on their innovative web site. That's the requisite tech angle, but the truth is, we have them on because we like their music so much. It's music for smart people. Maybe we can get them to do the Dr. Evil theme from Austin Powers! Other exciting upcoming guests: the former host of Internet Tonight, Scott Herriott, will join us May 6 to celebrate TechTV's 5th anniversary and to talk about his new film, Squatching. William Shatner will be on the show May 8.

Call for Help and The Screen Savers will be dark today - we're showing re-runs instead - so we can all go see X2. It's in my contract. We'll be back Monday.

Jessie's Back for Good

It's been hard keeping the secret, but I didn't want to jinx it. Jessica Corbin is coming back to The Screen Savers. She starts filling in for Megan during her maternity leave tonight! Now I've got to find a way to keep Jessie around when Megan comes back.
