I actually think it's just fine the way it is, John. I'd love to see some unscripted one-on-ones between Brian and some reporters maybe, but apart from that I'd say keep on doing what you're doing.

Mathew and Rich,

Thanks for the kind early reviews. (We're big fans of Rocketboom, so that comparison made me smile.) We're going to keep plugging away at this and see where it takes us. If you have ideas to improve it, we're all ears.

Cheers,
John

Kinda reminds me of a more-serious Rocketboom.
Interesting concept. And I agree, well executed. I think it does a great job of teasing up the day's news -- which would make me keep checking back for more updates and full write-throughs of those stories.
And, I like the casual style as well as the inside access to the newsroom perspective.
I wonder if it'll catch on elsewhere, and -- just as important -- if they'll be able to find a sponsor for it.
