Great video again - Leo is cooool. Good content and such quality. Can you list on the site in a box the equipment you use. Why do you use different hosts? I need to buy a flip video then I can respond by video.

Love the interview Robert, and Leo has a lot of really good things to say. But (of course there's a but) he wouldn't be able to do the Twit operation so easily if he wasn't making so much from the radio program (old media). Still, I think all of his advice is valid and very good.

Thanks for the great interview with Leo Laporte. He started out being this very entertaining guy on ZDNet, and has become an inspiration, entrepreneurial hero of mine. I also enjoyed the way that same entrepreneur spirit sparks between he and Scoble. I'm very glad I took the time out of my day to watch.

Am looking forward to checking this out. I've always said that Leo was the undisputed but sadly uncrowned king of technology news. But if scobelizer says he's the king then he is now! I wrote a piece very recently about my influencies and where I get my tech news from, and Leo was top of the list. In fact, he introduced me to so many great people through his shows, that I really owe him alot.
