Rolling Stone skriver om Amanda Congdon och hennes Rocketboom, vars 3-5 minuter långa dagliga "program" har 350.000 tittare:

The "set" of Rocketboom is in fact producer Andrew Baron's apartment on New York's Upper West Side. Production values are humble, at best: a desk, a chair, a $15,000 Sony HDV video camera and a budget of twenty dollars per day. Despite this, Rocketboom -- a kind of Headline News for the online community, featuring reports on new Web sites, Q&As with technology innovators, whimsical video clips and other ephemera -- is watched by 350,000 people a day. Part of its popularity is attributable to the fact that Congdon, 24, looks like a model (she was one; she hated it) but acts like a girl who'd be perfectly happy discussing the genius of Steve Jobs with her geek fan base.

Hennes tips från idag, AmigoFish, verkar lite kul: a way of finding podcasts and videoblogs of interest to you. Sign up for an account, rate some shows and shortly you will get predictions based on what people with similar tastes to yours have rated. The more shows you rate, the better the predictions get!

Update: Cred för att ha försvenskat Umair Haques "microchunking" till "mikrochunkad" går naturligtvis till Henrik Torstensson.
