Rebuild a TV Station on the cheap
I’ve been having some hallway discussions with our CEO Chuck Peters (or as I affectionalty refer to him as “Chucky P”). I think it started after I was talking too much about how cheap I thought I could rebuild a TV station. I was tossing around a number which was close to 10% of the [...]
CEO's, API, live blogging and barcamps
