PBS to Launch Nerd TV

Posted on July 22, 2005

PBS is targeting nerds with a new downloadable video show called Nerd TV. The show will feature Robert X. Cringely's interviews with technology insiders and personalities. NerdTV will be distributed under a Creative Commons license and will offer video clips that people can email to friends.

About the new show Cringley said, "NerdTV will have an uninterrupted hour with the smartest, funniest and sometimes nerdiest people in high tech. These are people who have changed our lives whether we know it or not. Through NerdTV a broad audience of enthusiasts and students will gain a much greater understanding of these techies and the context of their lives and work."
