What do you consider to be the best Web video shows on tech and the IT industry? (Just don't say "Diggnation," because I'm interested in shows that are actually useful and don't kill brain cells.)

I really like GeekBrief TV with Cali Lewis.
It is a fun, 3-6 minute show available in a number of
formats including HD, my favorite.
Check it out at www.geekbrief.tv

I've watched GeekBrief TV and I like it, but it's fairly Apple-centric and not quite as good for a quick scan of the news as Loaded, in my opinion -- especially for business users. The link for Loaded is in my post, but here it is again:

If you've ever wondered what it would be like to wander around inside a blade server, this is your show. It's a knowledgeable show about tech that doesn't forget to have fun. (And in the spirit of full disclosure, it's another CNET show.)

If you are a developer/architect.dba/pretty much anyone in the Microsoft/.NET space, then there's nothing to beat DNRTV or DotNetRocks TV. That, combined with the DotNetRocks bi-weekly podcasts, are absolutely unmissable viewing and listening.

Tekzilla a would have to be the Tech show i watch the most. I find it very informative.
A lot of Tech shows i have found concentrate too much on the Mac Platform instead of PC's and Windows

I love Tekzilla. Not only does it showcase items in Tech, it also takes viewer questions and gives you hints and tricks for everyday computer/technology use (more so with Tekzilla Daily).
It's reminicent of the old Screensavers, before G4 butchered it and eventually turned it into Attack of the Show.

it may not be IT, but checkout this electronics manufacturing site.
Nice Job in finding some lame videos - After watching ONE minute I had to actually skip to the end - how boring and uninteresting it was. Who they say they are?? IT IDIOTS - Oh Now I get it! The name says it all. The other videos are OK not the best. Please scan the web again!
for IT pros and those interested in business technology, in my opinion.
If you're interested in Macs or digital lifestyle stuff, then are some others worth checking out, like Insider Secrets and the Chris Pirillo show.

I don't think it's quite as good or as comprehensive as Loaded for daily tech news, as I noted in the post.
DL.TV is an excellent video cast and covers gaming,tech news and tips.Very well done...how could one miss this?
While I do agree that DL.TV is a good show, it's not the same without Patrick Norton and Robert Chan.
I prefer Tekzilla on Revision3 to DL.TV. I find Tekzilla more "fun" and less dry than DL.TV
My personal opinion.

3/3/08: The Science channel aired a show titled 'The History of the Internet. Woefully it was disappointing lacking any background on the true origins of the Internet and what preceded the Internet. It began with the browser wars of the 1990's
and even had that somewhat wrong. The history of the Internet began, wrongly, with the development of Mosaic and proceeded from there forward. Included were clips of Bill Gates lying to Congress about Microsoft's predatory approach to all attempts to destroy Netscape, eventually winning, although at great economic cost to MS and Personally to Mr. Gates.
While titled The History of the Internet the announcer introduced it as the beginning of the World Wide Web and as one who was there the fact is the WWW
is an offshoot of the Internet.
The history of the Internet, to be comprehensive and truthful should have begun, perhaps, with Bill Gates
hoodwinking another garage computer builder (for $50,000) into selling his version of DOS which Gates needed desperately to pitch his product to IBM. No mention was made of Gates shrewdly refusing to sell his product and rather licensing it so that to this day he collects a royalty on every Microsoft product sold.
Next in the development of the Net, however crudely was the local Bulletin Board systems that sprang up all over the country which provided games to play, a rudimentary email system known as Fido mail which operated on the "Pony Express" system. Your mail was collected in, say Bangor Maine, downloaded to the next BBS, then the next and on and on till a great portion of the country was involved. Each BBS delivering their own mail and passing the rest forward till it reached it's final destination.
For a respected TV channel like The Science Channel to overlook these early attempts to link the country electronically is a real shame. I wish them better luck if they choose to do another program similar to this. Lets hope they get it right this time.
