Seen it. Interesting concept.

I heard about this around it forth or fifth show. It is nicely produced and Cali is cute. The premise behind is novelty, but it works out. I keep thinking she giggles a lot becauseof nerves, but she's not exactly new to podcasting. I just heard a recent interview with her on Podcast 411 and while she was giggling a bit, she was fairly straight on what she's doing. It's just funny to me. Particularily one ep when she had a "Harry met Sally" moment.

An inch wide and and inch deep...

There's a balance between brevity and depth and this vidcast doesn't hit the right spot in this regard for me. There are some interesting products introduced...and then there are some interesting services introduced...and then there are some interesting rumors introduced...and then there is some interesting *ahem* dancing...and then...I'm ready for some Adderall. I appreciate covering a lot of ground fast - we're all busy - but maybe it's the combination of 30-60 second pieces and the bobbing head video that make it all seem like cotton candy. Cali's cute, but her mannerisms range from unprofessional to repetitive/annoying, so that aspect doesn't influence me too much. There is clearly considerable effort in the production and much of it is rather good, but some of it, again, is more distracting than helpful. It's clear that they are still in the fairly steep part of the learning curve, and I subscribed hoping that feedback will refine the vidcast, but I haven't watched it since V asked for input. My player is audio-only and the tight shirt isn't appropriate viewing at work or at home.

Interesting but.....

..... the is now part of Adam (Wiki Master) Curry's Podshow empire.

I must admit it really is geeky softporn really as the host is cute, but the show lacks any real substance.
