Suprise!

Information and Communication

Zuppa de Clams (Clam Soup) and Salad
I don’t want to beat a dead horse … ok, maybe I do. There were changes made to the JTV interface today and broadcasters and viewers alike are buzzing about it. I was out most of the day and didn’t notice when the changes happened, [...]

Shopping in the New World, A Comment About the Comments

Would Marco Polo Ever Have Envisioned This?!

A new channel popped up while I was looking around the channel bar after work this evening and it was one that really piqued my interest! It’s a shopping channel in which the shoppers are 10000 miles away showing the virtual customer the merchandise via live video. [...]

Monkeying Around and a Swift Kick in the Pants

Entertaining

Justin aka iMonkeyboy was nesting — setting up his bed for the night, or so it seemed
-
It’s another tough night on JTV. There is nothing interesting to watch. Where is everyone? It seems like people took an extended Thanksgiving holiday vacation and an extended breather from JTV watching and lifecasting.
So … I [...]

Same old, Same Old

Sunday Night
It’s another Sunday night in JTV-land and I’ve had a tough time finding anything worthile to write about.  I am dog-tired, so I thought I would take a night off from blogging.  I’ll be back tomorrow night and will hopefully have something interesting to write about!

The Day After the Day After Thanksgiving

Bleak
It’s another weekend at JTV and once again, nothing interesting is going on.  Well, I take that back.  I dropped in this morning and Antinormal Comics was on drawing, so I sat down and watched for a while.  He was working hard and the folks in his room were happy to be watching.  He was [...]

Black Friday — Retail Style, Another Look at the Highlights Awards, Food and a Lifecasting Documentary?

The Almighty Dollar

Bife de Chrizo, Ensalada Completa and Empanadas de queso — An Argentine Dinner
-
I seem to have missed something. Although I have been in the US for 3 of the past 9 holiday seasons, I think the repatriation or acclimating to life in the US at about the time the holidays rolled around [...]

Celebration or Cause for Concern and Black Friday

I hope everyone had a happy and restful Thanksgiving.  Now … let the shopping begin!
Milestone
Today marks the 200th post to Living the Justopian Life. While it’s very gratifying in some sense, it is extremely disturbing in another.
Since April 27th, I have posted every day with less than a handful of exceptions. That means [...]

Thanksgiving Approaches and Some Channel News

Holidays
Thanksgiving is upon us and the pumpkin cheesecake is done and in the fridge chilling. Tonight was a Breakfast for Dinner night and although it was simple fare of an omelet, bacon and toast with Wegman’s Triple Berry Jam, it was DEElicious and just what I was in the mood for after a long [...]

Worthwhile Viewing

Art
I came home from work and tuned into JTV and saw a new face on the top bar — Postmodern ArtistTV. Natasha paints colorful, fun pieces that I would like to own. I watched her finish a piece this evening and the photograph it and put it up for auction. You can [...]

Vying for Votes

Endings?
I thought about the contest all day.  Let me rephrase that.  I was so busy today that I didn’t actually have time to think about it all day, but it had my attention whenever I didn’t need to be thinking about pots and pans and coffee makers and such.  The numbers are pretty wonky.  I [...]

In My Backyard

Awards

I know we are anxiously awaiting the announcement of the winners of the Justin.tv Broadcaster Highlight Awards, but I have discovered a live awards show right in my own back yard. I have just returned from a crazy-busy day at work and launched JTV. In the number 1 place on the Top Bar [...]

Contest or Protest? You Decide

Statistics

-
So, explain this to me please. Does winning a competition by stacking the odds feel good? In the end does it feel like an accomplishment? I don’t know, I suppose we have a President we can ask, but that’s yesterday’s news — ALMOST.
On JTV this week we have seen vote tampering and now major [...]

Helping Hands a Viewer Birthday Celebration and A Night of JTV Channel Bar Drama

Community

Osso Buco, Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Spinach with Kalamata Olives
It’s great to have JTV blogs and other resources to gather information about what is going on.
I knew ECV said he was going to stop his broadcast on Tuesday night and spend time in Justopia.com for the big launch, but I was up to my elbows [...]

Talent on JTV

What is Normal Anyway?

Thai Steak, Fried Rice, Fried Wontons and Steamed Broccoli– DEElicious!
I was out looking for something to jump-start my right brain, something that would be the trigger I needed to put words on paper. I have only had a few creative bursts in the last few weeks and the blog has shown [...]

The Day After Thanksgiving and Justin Makes an Appearance on ECV

Tired

Turkey tostadas, Beans with Feta and Olives
I’m exhausted! Making two Thanksgiving dinners is no easy feat, especially in a small kitchen, but staying up writing a blog post and hanging out in ECV’s room until 6am is the real culprit. I have no self control and would probably stay up all day every [...]
