Virgin America's New Inflight WiFi and YouTube Live Event
OK, I promised you a full recap about my event-filled Saturday — the flight, the WiFi test drive, and the YouTube Live Event — and here it is! Testing out Virgin America's first WiFi enabled plane with Gogo Inflight Internet among other tech enthusiasts was a rush in itself, but heading to the first official YouTube Live event here in San Francisco was icing on the cake to a spectacular day.
To see how I made out with the Gogo WiFi service during the flight and to see some YouTube Vlogging stars and celebs I ran into at the event, check out my slideshow!
I'm Going to YouTube Live! And Getting WiFi on a Jet Plane . . .
I've got quite the geeky day planned, and I had to share my excitement with guys! First, I'm packing my bags and heading to San Francisco International Airport to board a Virgin America plane — I'm not really going anywhere, per se, but the short flight will be showing off GoGo's new in-flight WiFi! Then afterward, drum roll please — I am hitting up the YouTube Live event!
YouTube Takes the Plunge Into Live Webcasting
Some days (when I have time), I'll get a pretty great ab workout from all the laughs I find on YouTube. Some of my friends think it's the best invention since Cheetos — and it looks like they're about to get even better. Not only is YouTube calling itself the "world's largest video discovery platform", but it's also dipping its toes into the pool of live webcasting; starting with their inaugural YouTube Live event taking place here in San Francisco on November 22.

Is the Internet Your Primary Entertainment Source?
In days of yore my friends and I would gather to watch Friends live on TV, but my how our habits have changed! Earlier this week I found myself live blogging on Twitter through The Bachelorette finale. Halfway through the two hour extravaganza of cheese and romance I realized I was enjoying playing on Twitter and my friends' comebacks and witty comments far more than the actual program.
SNL to Get Its Own Video Website!
I love my video websites like YouTube, Vimio, and Hulu, and even though it's fun to watch hilarious viral videos, they're indispensable for TV clips; before when you forgot to watch or DVR something, you just missed it. The end. But the rise of websites with clips on them ensures you're never out of the loop; can you imagine living in a world where you missed "D*ck in a Box"?
Daily Tech: Obama's New Running Mate Isn't Tech Happy
- Sad news in the geek world. Barack Obama's new running mate, Joe Biden, gives tech two thumbs down. One of his bills include making it more difficult to encrypt your data and he doesn't agree with people being able to record music over-the-air.
Did You Watch Convention Speeches on the Internet?
What's so interesting about John McCain's speech at the Republican National Convention bringing in slightly more viewers than Barack Obama's speech at the Democratic National Convention to geeksugar? It's interesting because this election has involved the Internet in an inextricable fashion — so much so that this data, the viewing habits of live broadcast television only, could be kinda skewed.
What I'm getting at is that I know a lot of people who didn't tune in to their regular broadcast to watch either speech, and instead watched videos of the speeches online.
