Naked bloggers launch online video network
OK, I've been known to go off on rants on net@nite about female bloggers posting half-naked pics online (you can find your own links :). Well, now the boys are getting in on the action.
Pictured here is the Scobelizer (famous tech blogger Robert Scoble) and Shel Israel (tech consultant/author). This photo is from a Techcrunch party in honour of a book they launched some time ago.
Now they're teaming up again under Fast Company's new online video network, headed by Scoble.
I have met both Scoble and Shel, with their shirts on, and can't wait to watch this FC network grow, as there are too few good tech/business video shows online.
I wish analyst/blogger Bob Lefsetz would do a weekly video show (shirt on), I could listen to that guy rant and rave about the music industry for hours on end. His emails are classic.

Wow! I could have gone my whole life without seeing that and been just fine. Think I'm going to go find some of those other pics you mentioned in hopes of erasing that image from my mind.

Robert and Shel are both awesome. I can't wait to see what kind of content they're going to produce.

Ohmahjeezus!! *pukes* I think I'm going to go stab myself in the eye with a fondue fork and then roast it over an open fire.

Thankfully most of the podcasts I enjoy are "listen too" only ... and yet another reason to keep them that way. (with the exception of CommandN of course; although a 'shirts off' February edition would probably generate a few more views? Brrr.)

This picture just goes to prove why women should be the only people to take their clothes off in front of camera's. Naked overweight male nerds/geeks are never pretty, that was just wrong posting that image Amber, you could of at least blurred in out before posting it. I'm off the the Wired.Com Sexiest Geek of 2007 post to try and find an antidote for that above pict. http://reddit.wired.com/sexygeeks2007/?s=top And Amber, your currently in 7th.

Amber, please post something new so I don't have to see that picture at the top of the page every time I visit you site.

I had noticed that about myself the compatible few years.

Nothing against Robert or Shel, but we didn't need to see that, guys. I think you just wanted an excuse to post that pic, Amber.
