New Vidcasts

Today NLNtv.com posted two new vidcasts. One is a Russian sample of the program Kid Tricks. The other is a full program produced by a Romanian producer in English. It is called The Verdict and is about Creationism. It is interesting to see the way this Romanian station dealt with this issue.

NLNtv Vidcast

NLN is trying a test site for video podcasts at http://NLNtv.podomatic.com

As I write this I have added two trailers and one complete program. The titles added were in Arabic, Hungarian (although falsely noted as Romanian in the trailer itself) and the complete title is in Polish from our Polish office, created by our Polish arm.

Feedback is eagerly awaited. Let us know if you can use it yourself and how we can make changes to help you.

Digg vs. Slashdot (or, traffic vs. influence)

Analysis of the power of digg and slashdot

This will mean nothing to most people who read the NLN blog, but it is important to note that this is a question that pits equal access against filtering by experts, and this does have an impact upon NLN and how it best digitally distributes its programming in the future.

We will need to see what wins out over the longer term, but if my theory is correct about the development of the Internet then if Slashdot does not find a way to better democratize and make it easier for users to add info, then they will be less significant within 12 months and Digg will continue to grow.

As for NLN, this means that we will also be developing a more open concept as all shifts towards the on demand, digital world. Feedback is, as always, welcome. You can Skype me at briankelley

Nepal TV Update



Here you see a photo of The National TV HQ in Kathmandu in Nepal. NLN has met there with the leadership and they have expressed interest in working us with both in person and electronically.

Recent political changes have shut down the largest private TV station called Kantipur, with which NLN also had a personal contact back in 2003. The station is now no longer broadcasting. NLN is glad to have a good contact with the National broadcaster, but very disappointed that the government of Nepal has chosen to close down a station when they have freedom of press on their law books. We hope for a soon resolution. Our desire is to work with the state and the private sector.
