About Leo Laporte the TWiT Journalist

Helge: I 'm listening to Leo Laporte show. Jason Calacanis is on the show. I've seen the man on Twitter but this is the first time I can match voice, blog, Twitter and the TWiT.tv.

About: "Hello! My name is Leo Laporte. I’m a technology journalist and broadcaster, traditional and Internet-based, and this is my blog.

Helge: The net is a learning environment... I hope it's right to use the About information to get into details. I know I'm decorating my blog with some of his content.

I have a number of other sites including Leoville.com, my home page, TWiT.tv, my netcast site, and TechGuyLabs.com, my radio show site. I also maintain microblogs at Pownce and Jaiku.

Helge: It's funny to listen to people who don't have a face but a very well known voice. First time I connect Leo's various Internet presence identities. People can exist on the net as textual realities. A picture doesn't have a voice. Those who have webcasts on their shows might not be known for their writings.

I host a national radio technology talk show every Saturday and Sunday from 2–5p Eastern on the Premiere Radio Networks including XM Channel 152, and The Lab With Leo, a daily hour-long television show produced in Vancouver, BC and aired in Canada on G4TechTV, and Australia on the HOW-TO Channel.

Helge: They talk about Alibaba. What is Google and Yahoo doing in China? I know Calacanis, his voice, twits and his Mahaloo. There is a man on the show (Gerry) that speak about "if you are in the slave trade market"... referring to Google introducing Android and Open Social.

I also host and produce online technology shows including this WEEK in TECH, Security Now!, net@nite, The Daily Giz Wiz, Windows Weekly, MacBreak Weekly, and Jumping Monkeys under the TWiT.tv banner.

Helge: They talk about Fan sites and copyright issues.

I live in Northern California with my wife, Jennifer, my two teenagers, Abby and Henry, my little Papillon dog, Ozzy, and cats Dusty and Chester.
