"Robert X. Cringely" whoever he is, has been promising the second season of NerdTV for nearly 2 years now. Yet he still claims it's coming soon... WTF. He has mentioned technological difficulties as reasons (which don't stack up) bandwidth limitations, codecs etc. (ever heard of Google Video and Flash?) though none of these reasons are serious.

The real cause is that the producers of NerdTV haven't yet found a way to capitalize on it (though there is a DVD on sale of season one) --- anyone know any big blogs out there in the tech sector, who are turning away ad revenue yet who are in desperate need of good content?. Yet money aside, somethings should be done just for the hell of it, and this is one of those things.

The first season of NerdTV was full of geeks who had classic stories to tell, these were not your average startup sales pitches which you will often see on the likes of Robert Scoble's 'show' but rather icons of the industry that you had most likely never heard off, but who made silly little widgets like the mouse for example.

These were great shows, entertaining (in a really nerdy way) and with content that had traction (i.e. not 2 second dribble that we are mostly bombarded with). It was really a tough choice to pick one of the shows to embed here for you to get a taste, but the whole list can be found Here.

This example is for all the mac lovers out there and will hold special appeal. Though there really is something for every nerd!

The second season 'SuperNerds' claims to be interviewing some of the industries top players, Jobs, Gates, et al. So where the heck is it? Someone who has cash and an active audience in the tech sector (I won't mention TC again, I really don't care anymore) should put some of their advertising bucks back into the industry and sponsor the season 2. Blimey if I was flush and had the audience I'd throw cash at it for the geek kudos alone.

Anyone who want's to see the second series should make their voice heard.!
