Berlind's Media Transparency Channel
If you're looking for my podcasts, please read What to do if you're looking for my series of podcasts on IT Matters. Otherwise, read on.

This blog is now a part of my experiment in media transparency. The premise is that if the media can broadcast polished edited content through one channel like ZDNet, then why can't it also broadcast a parallel channel that's full of the raw materials (thus, this "channel"). For a much more detailed explanation, be sure to check out the following:
David, what is a media transparency channel?
Why are you doing this?
In case you're interested, maintaining a simplistic transparency channel like this one has so far involved a significant amount of heavy lifting. The core technology may exist, but it's my opinion that a decent UI for publishing a transparency channel does not. So, one outgrowth of this experiment might be a complete specification for such a system -- Something I call JOTS. Finally, as a student of media, convergence, and technology monoculture (three very inter-related issues, if you ask me), I'll be blogging any news that comes my way that I think is relevant to the media revolution that's upon us (the one that many media executives are in obvious denial about).

.....and I don't see any of these industries getting shutdown any time soon. As a matter of fact, I strongly feel that these industries will perhaps be forever with our human existence. Of course they will be more technological in the near future, but a radio (or TV) is still a radio regardless of its shape and/or receiving technology. Since these two products contain worldwide channels and radio stations, they can be advertised worldwide, as well. The ethnic target markets of these products are huge.

Although I am open to any suggestions from any investor who decides to be a part of this project, I have already taken care of all the marketing aspects of these products. That includes the idea and creation of the products, packaging, legal protection for each of products, as well as technical and production aspects. The products are completely ready to be advertised, manufactured, and distributed at wholesale (even UPC bar codes have already been assigned to each product). Based on a personal marketing research, profit margins are also already set to very reasonable profitable amounts for both the buyer and us (the seller), based on quantities. I have also arranged a manufacture-on-demand situation with a manufacturing plant; which will allow us to only manufacture and ship orders as they come. In other words; there won't be any startup production costs, since each order will automatically subsidize itself, and generate its profits. This will allow us to manufacture and distribute our products without having to worry about warehousing costs. Our turnaround time is not jeopardized by this "on-demand" method, either.

As you may have already noticed, the reason why I am contacting a third source (like yourself) is due to that I don't have the funds to mass-advertise these products. I am open to negotiate a legal contract with you (or your firm) for the aforesaid project. The amount needed for promotional purposes are still being negotiated. I am personally contacting several advertising services and trying to negotiate an affordable advertising package for this project.

If you would like some more technical information about these products, please visit www.WebBrowserTV.com and www.WebBrowserRADIO.com. Please inform me, at your earliest convenience, of your interest on this project. Thank you!

Respectfully,
