YouTube Blog: Surf video all day long on TV and the Web, then tell your friends about it

As you could probably guess, we're really excited about the imminent launch of Google TV. You can learn more about this initiative here, but it’s basically a new way to watch TV by seamlessly integrating the Web and TV into one incredible viewing experience. Soon, you’ll be able to watch a lot more of those beautiful hi-def YouTube videos on your beautiful, hi-def TV.

Google TV will initially be available on devices manufactured by Sony and Logitech in the fall, with more partners to be announced later. Logitech has just come up with a nifty idea to publicize their device, the Logitech Revue with Google TV™ -- a contest to find the 'Host with the Most' in one of three fabulous cities within the U.S.

Check out this site for more details of ‘Host with the Most,’ but the gist is simple: if you can prove that you are a true social influencer with a passion for the new universe of TV and video that Google TV will offer, Logitech may select you to become a Logitech host and pay you to spend time in one of their lofts in New York, Los Angeles or San Francisco. Your mission will be to host a bunch of parties, show off the technology, and spread the word through your social circles. (See Logitech's OFFICIAL RULES for eligibility requirements and complete details.) Since nothing goes together better than YouTube and Google TV – and no group is more socially connected than the YouTube community – we thought we’d encourage you all to nominate yourselves for the role. We look forward to seeing what cool things the winning hosts will do with the Logitech loft experience – and maybe one of them will be you!

*NEITHER GOOGLE NOR YOUTUBE IS A SPONSOR OF OR AFFILIATED WITH THE LOGITECH 'HOST WITH THE MOST' CONTEST IN ANY WAY. EMPLOYEES OF GOOGLE AND YOUTUBE NOT ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE.

Welcome to the Official TWiT Wiki!
2,985 articles of TWiT goodness so far.

This is where you'll find pages for all the TWiT shows, a FAQ with basic information about the network, pages about our community, and more. The content here is generated both by TWiT Staff and the TWiT community. Please help us make this site more useful! Anyone can modify the site - look for an edit button and dig right in!

Working on a wiki is a little different from creating other web pages. Before creating or editing pages make sure to read the Editing help page and the Editing FAQ. You might also want to print out the Quick Reference card. For more information about MediaWiki, the software running this site, consult the User's Guide. But don't worry too much about formatting - the most important job is to load the wiki up with content. There are plenty of experienced wiki hands around who can shape your text into standard form.

The wiki only works if the community supports it, so work the wiki! And thanks so much for your help and support. TWiT is its community.
