as i said on IRC, I suggested TechTV months ago. it's a great idea. we have to organize and plan this thing right, however.
remember, once you are out in public, you have to be careful how you present yourself. you have to have the right spokesperson. someone who will not be a big loudmouth nerd that will turn people off. for example.
(I'm NOT thinking of anyone in particular, here. I watch TechTV and sometimes I see people on that seem just wrong! very wrong!).
someone suggested BBRV. well, with all due respect, that's not a good idea. at the moment, they are the focus of trolls and other negative persons and we don't need ANY bad vibes.
we need "new" faces not connected in any way to weirdos wanting to fling mud. the public view of MOS should be a cool system, a fun system and a happy bunch of users.
As i suggested, there should be one main spokesperson and several others who "specialize" in specific areas of expertise. sort of like a band that will have solos now and again.
we have to think of this as being able to make repeated visits to TechTV. showing more new, cool stuff with each appearance.
rinse, repeat.
