Tip of The Day: 

 

  

This news is as of 4/25/2000.  On Friday, April 6, 2000 Kate Botello did her last episode of The Screen Savers.  After one week of re-runs The Screen Savers was back with Patrick Norton as the new co-host.  There is now a new opening for The Screen Savers with Leo and Patrick.  Kate will still be working at ZDTV as co-host of Game Spot TV.  You can now vote at ZDTV.com  for the films in the 2nd Annual Film Festival.  Apparently it seems, Sumi Das is up for an Emmy.  Leo Laporte and Sumi Das are going on tour in the Bahamas and in Florida check out ZDTV.com to see if ZDTV will be coming to your town.

    This new is as of 3/1/2000.  ZDTV has a new show, You Made It.  They show your net cam videos on TV.  I think their website is at www.zdtv.com/youmadeit.  You should send in your videos.  The Cam Film Fest is coming up soon and The Screen Savers have been showing segments on how make your digital shorts. I plan to enter my film in the festival, it's called "Might Morphin' Screen Savers". 

    This news is as of 2/14/2000.  ZDTV has three new shows: "You Made It" which airs peoples net cam videos that they send in.  The other shows are "Web Workshop" and "Cybercrime".  ZDTV.com was one of the victims of last week DoS (denial of service) attacks.  The site is online again, ZD NET was also a victim.  ZDTV has had numerous special reports on the attacks. 

     This news is as of 12/12/99.  Paul Allen has bought out ZDTV!  I think he now owns 66% of ZDTV.  Before he owned ZDTV he had owned 33% of ZDTV.  Leo Laporte thinks the new ownership is a good thing for ZDTV.  ZDTV's news channel will still be shared with ZD despite the buyout but the name ZDTV News has been changed to ZD Network News (ZDNN).

    This news is as of 11/18/99. This week (November 15-19) ZDTV is at Comdex! I was sick and got to stay home from school so I watched the Comdex broadcasts. There was tons of great stuff, everybody was there! Everybody from Bill Gates to Linus Torvalds. Click here to go to my Comdex File! One of their shows, ZDTV Comdex Live! With Jim Louderback, Leo Laporte, and Kate Botello showcased great devices, people, and booth shows! To visit ZDTV's Comdex hub click here: ZDTV Comdex Hub.


    This news is as of 10/18/99 . This page contains news on my ZDTV website and on ZDTV. Web Cam Week III just got over. ZDTV was giving away 3Com Home Connect Net cams. The whole week all the shows had net cam only calls. Here's the latest news from my website: In early October I submitted the site to the ZDTV Fan Web Ring. On October 13th I got an e-mail saying my site had been admitted. So, I'd like to thank the ZDTV Fan Web Ring for letting my site be a part of it. Other news on my ZDTV page: I have re-done the ZDTV home page here. I also revamped The Screen Savers page. I hope to add more pages devoted to individual shows. Due to my 5MB space limit I can't include too many pictures but I'll put as many pictures on as I possibly can. There was a poll added in the poll section about what is your favorite show on ZDTV so click here to go there right now and take the poll!
