Positive Television reports in the UK

[hifistud]

Following TW's Yorkshire tour, UK Telly did quite a lot on e-cigs, as Dave and Keith report:

The Haze Hour ~ 6th Oct. 11

Followed up by VTTV coverage of CAM-VIP's Stay-in night at the Angler's Rest near Barnsley.

VTTALK from Barnsley NOTE THE TIME !

Dave, that was an excellent show on The Haze Hour and my first exposure to Vapourtrails.tv for a number of reasons.

Just the TV exposure and fairly positive reports have got to be encouraging. More important for me was that I was able to watch it, tethered to my android, and it ran smoothly. That's a first for me since I can't use my SAT internet for video without killing my bandwidth limitation. I don't know technically what is different with youtube and Vapourtrails.tv but whatever it is, it made watching the show enjoyable (other than that nasty noise after a video clip LOL).

When is that WTA show?

It would be helpful to have weblinks of the actual television news segments on e-cigarettes (especially from the BBC), as I'd like to send it/them to e-cigarette opponents and open minded public health officials and advocates.

They've gone, Bill - the Beeb and ITV only have their regional stuff like that available for a week. And I can't get a license for open web distribution other than in that show.

It followed on the Friday - it's in our archives at In the Corner Ep. 7 .

Bandwidth wise, we try to aim at mobile and slow internet users, on the basis that if they can see it, so can the folks with terabit connections, and have specifically sought out a CDN that delivers to the widest possible number of devices.

It works Dave and I so appreciate it. I keep looking at 4G map and wondering why they can't fill in the two circles that are so temptingly close. I also wonder why a technical person has a personality that puts himself on the edges of civilized life.

I thought all technical people were that way.
The less people (read stupid users) you have to deal with the better.

Well I did enjoy programming after 10 years of selling real estate because there was no disagreement about who was wrong in all communication with the computer and the rules were always consistent.

Yes. The computer is always right. Annoyingly, it always does exactly what you commanded it to do, not necessarily what you wanted it to do.
