Now that NBC has installed a mini-studio in my house (right in the middle of what was -- and, frankly, still is -- the “Sun Tea” room), it probably makes sense to actually use the thing.
But since we realize that long-form video (cough . . . FOX . . . cough) will never take root in today’s cut-to-the-chase Internet culture, we’re keeping it simple, stupidly.
Every business day, in the noon hour (or, you know, at the very end of it), we’ll post a two-to-three-minute video where I talk about the story lines in which I’m most interested.
We also might read off the best comment of the day, or answer a question submitted from a member of PFT Planet.
So here’s the first effort. We intentionally made it crappy so that we will later be able to enjoy the sense of accomplishment that comes from taking something that’s crappy and moving it to the category of “not as crappy as it used to be, but still sort of crappy.”
