By Rhodri Marsden  Some people are still choosing to have giant plasma televisions whose wide screens and 16:9 aspect ratios dominate the living room, but the emphasis in many homes is now switching from the television set to the computer.

By INEZ RUSSELL  Last month, after one too many discussions with my child about the need to turn the television off, I called the satellite company and put technology on hold. We've never been a big TV family. In fact, until he was 4, our boy didn't watch television at all.

Tycho: The whole reason I wrote that other post was to link the new article about it at 1up, and I didn't even manage to do that - here you go. In a way, I'm glad I didn't link it before - in the intervening period, a new episode of the 1up show has dropped that has a ton of interview and video material for every part of Episode 2 - including TF2 and Portal. It's the top video on this page. Unbelievably delicious.(CW)TB

I was in the audience yesterday when the one dramatic moment of the conference took place. Scoble was on stage. Mike Arrington was sitting to my right in the front row of the second section (on the right). Mike showed me a piece he was writing, and I gulped. It said Scoble was leaving Podtech and probably going to FastCompany to start a TV network for them. Since Scoble is my friend, I knew that there was some truth to this, but was disappointed to see it was coming out, esp at a moment when Scoble wouldn't have a moment to think and consult with friends before formulating a response. HIs laptop screen was being projected as we watched him edit his comment on TechCrunch. At one point Mike asked if I thought he knew we could see what he was typing. I didn't think he did. Anyway, Scoble lets it all hang out. And somehow he gets away with it. What would kill most people just stings him, and he smiles through it all, in his bumbling Scoble-like way, and it always amazes me how he makes lemonade out of the lemons. This isn't the optimal way to announce you're leaving a company, and his deal with FC isn't final yet. But somehow I think he'll navigate this transition and come out in a better place after the dust settles.

By Amanda Cuda, Connecticut Post, Bridgeport  Feb. 26--People think it's easy writing about TV. They think it must be so simple to just flip on the boob tube, and yak about what you see.   Well, it is easy.   Kind of.
