Docubloggers

Yesterday evening the TV show ‘Docubloggers’ by KLRU, a local affiliate of PBS aired a great portrait of my wife Dana. This little clip tells part of her story and how she developed our business with me together. Enjoy!

A New Earth – Mainstream Media meets Online Video

Oprah and Eckhart Tolle started an online seminar together. It is based on his newest book ‘A New Earth’. The book itself is fascinating. Tolle describes and uncovers what he calls a shift in evolution.

In her online talk show Oprah asks Eckhart how she can apply his principles in all day life. She shares her experience what happened when she applied what she learned from the book. Her authenticity makes the show outstanding. It is not polished, she is not an untouchable star. You can see and feel her passion.

Eckhart Tolle is relaxed and honest. He answers all questions, sometimes surprising. Watch the iTunes download at time counter: 1:06:21. Oprah is supporting him, shares the stage with him. They are partners.

People call in via Skype video, emails, phone and ask questions. This is a new experience. A TV star and an expert on self help use the internet to share their message. Live video streaming through Oprah’s website makes it an interactive experience. You can also watch via download from iTunes on your iPod, iPhone, Apple TV, listen on your mp3 player whenever and wherever you want.

More than an hour long are two people talking, with audience participation from around the world. A lot is unscripted and uncontrolled. This could never be done on a TV network. Together with web 2.0 technology and the production quality of a TV studio, Oprah uses her TV fame to promote the show. Courageous! That is a new medium for learning and entertainment.

Oprah gives Eckhard Tolle a stage and audience. He gives her the content, his vision. She shows his brilliance to a world audience he cannot reach. A new mass medium is born. She lives her dream and moves the world.
