A newscast devoted to CAD? I got the press release from the ever-enterprising Rachael Dalton-Taggart about CCNtv, a bi-weekly news show making its debut online.
I was expecting something stuffy, may be even boring, possibly amateurish. I was pleasantly surprised on all counts. What I saw was lively, entertaining and professional, and at times -- even humorous.
Amy Adams does the first ever CAD news show, produced by Ashbridge Media
The first show covered several topics, including PTC earnings, Autodesk's stock options, the SolidWorks channel, etc. None will be news to you if you have been reading your TenLinks Daily or CADCAMNET newsletters (in fact, much of the material is recycled from already published articles), but the commentary and presentation is definitely fresh, entertaining and worthwhile.
Rachael's biggest challenge? Getting her editors to be available for filming. Well, I don't blame them. Hey, we don't all look like Amy Adams. "Amy is 'special talent' hired for the show," says Rachael.
It costs nothing to view the video (click here) but Rachael's company, Ashbridge Media, hopes to make money from advertising. Current book rates are $2500 for slots in two shows, but Rachael is offering a introductory discounted price of $1750.
Il ne s'ensuit pas que, parce que nous ne subventionnons pas fumer, nous ne devrions pas réglementer les activités malsaines. Coûts et les économies ne sont pas la seule variable. Le fait que l'obésité engendre des coûts est simplement une raison supplémentaire de le réglementer, et non pas le seul. La raison principale est le danger à un individu. Vous êtes méprisant de subventionner le tabagisme en raison précisément de cette intuition morale.

It's a pity more people aren't looking for journalists in Northern Ireland! Maybe I should point them to this blog. Thanks for taking the time to write it.

Thanks for the kind words, Roopinder! We have a challenge in making news about the CAD industry humorous, but we are trying!
