Title: Webb Alert Video show
Post by: Rico on October 16, 2007, 10:06:13 AM
I really like Geekbrief TV with Cali Lewis (at www.geekbrief.tv) but here's another short video tech cast I just discovered.  It's called Webb Alert featuring another female tech anchor named Morgan Webb.  I've just watched a couple so far but they are fun, short and informative.  Check them out here:  www.webbalert.com

I think the tech people out there are discovering that most techies are guys and they would rather watch attractive women dish out the tech news than a guy do it.  But at least in the case of Cali and Morgan (also Veronica Belmont fits this model) they actually know and use the technology they discuss too.

I used to like Morgan Webb's segments on the Screen Savers. I'll have to take a look at this show. I also have no problem with Morgan's hawtness.

Yes - girl geeks are much easier to watch.  Here are some examples.  First up Morgan Webb from the show mentioned above.  And the photo below that are three tech types.  Left to right:  Amber Mac, Leo LaPorte, and Cali Lewis.

I always liked Morgan Webb, she was funny. One thing we do get up in Canada is Leo Laporte, I must admit I have fallen behind on watching his new show the Lab. I must Admit that I was happy Amber left, as I found her a little to Mac Centric. I will definitely check out Mogans web show.

Leo does a TON of shows.  I listen to his This Week in Tech Podcast (TWIT) every week.  Good stuff.

I like Amber a bit more on CityTV then I did on Call for Help. She's come into her own more lately. I always used to think she was flat and asked inane interview questions like "So how did <website x> get started?" She's definitely gotten better.

Back on Morgan, here's some old stuff, always sarcastic.
