Author: ryanvis
First clue. It isn’t on TV. It’s Systm. Kevin Rose and Dan Huard, two refugees from the long lamented TechTV, have started Systm. They are also thebroken. System is a videoblog on steroids, television without commercials. It’s tech for tech heads and newbies alike. In short, it’s what TechTV used to be; ground breaking but […]
