[664.46 --> 667.76] So, basically, news is dead and this is the replacement. |
[668.44 --> 670.18] I mean, this is democratization of news. |
[670.26 --> 670.86] I mean, this is something... |
[670.86 --> 672.04] We did a piece a little while back. |
[672.12 --> 675.64] It was not a very successful piece where I made, like, a streaming backpack. |
[676.06 --> 676.20] Yeah. |
[676.30 --> 678.50] And I was like, this is the future of news. |
[678.82 --> 680.76] People just being somewhere and streaming. |
[680.90 --> 684.10] And, like, this is, like, what I would consider to be kind of a high-end... |
[684.10 --> 688.46] I think the reason why that didn't work that well was you were slightly too ahead of the curve. |
[688.76 --> 689.06] Maybe. |
[689.34 --> 690.52] And the setup was kind of janky. |
[690.52 --> 691.52] Well, yeah, but now... |
[692.14 --> 694.40] And things have gotten better to be able to make the setup better. |
[694.58 --> 694.78] Yeah. |
[695.18 --> 698.58] But now IRL streaming with backpacks is, like, a thing. |
[698.96 --> 700.00] And it wasn't really. |
[700.18 --> 700.94] When you made that. |
[701.00 --> 702.10] Well, whatever. |
[702.24 --> 702.90] I was trying. |
[703.66 --> 704.92] Thought it was a cool idea. |
[705.10 --> 705.96] So, I was like, okay. |
[706.06 --> 711.72] But a step above, you know, just having a phone out or whatever would be building yourself, |
[711.72 --> 717.92] like, a transmission processing backpack so that you can transcode to multiple destinations, |
[718.58 --> 722.20] so that you have failover for your multiple SIM cards. |
[722.42 --> 722.46] Yeah. |
[722.64 --> 728.34] A nice high-resolution and better audio quality camera so that the feed isn't potato level. |
[728.66 --> 729.36] Forward and back. |
[729.36 --> 732.32] And this is just sort of... |
[732.32 --> 741.20] It's just another branch down that same path where, ultimately, local news stations are dying. |
[741.42 --> 742.40] This is not debatable. |
[742.88 --> 743.74] It's not... |
[743.74 --> 744.30] You know what? |
[744.42 --> 745.88] ...stoppable, I don't think, at this point. |
[745.88 --> 746.42] This is... |
[746.42 --> 747.42] I'm just reading. |
[747.84 --> 748.88] There's one line here. |
[748.96 --> 752.48] People everywhere want to know what is going on in their backyard at a very local level, |
[752.56 --> 757.40] ranging from local bookstore readings to high school sporting events to information about local street closures. |
[757.40 --> 765.36] If this is curated well enough and sorted well enough, because there is so many things that I will not care about. |
[765.56 --> 765.78] Yep. |
[765.78 --> 770.74] But also, on, like, a Friday, I might be like, man... |
[770.74 --> 772.32] What is there to do right now? |
[772.32 --> 773.34] What am I going to do this weekend? |
[774.00 --> 774.60] So... |
[774.60 --> 777.16] And if I can do, like, events near me this weekend. |
[777.16 --> 784.80] I've been blown away by the number of things that go on in the community of Surrey. |
[785.40 --> 785.62] Yeah. |
[785.62 --> 794.98] So, for example, I was dropping my son off for preschool one morning, and I just saw, like, a sign in the foyer that was like, |
[794.98 --> 800.56] hey, we're doing a starry night movie night thing that's free. |
[800.82 --> 801.68] There's face painting. |
[802.60 --> 803.20] There's... |
[803.20 --> 806.38] I forget what else there was, but there was, like, some activities to do for kids. |
[806.90 --> 813.90] And then at dusk, they were going to bring out the big blow-up, you know, portable projector screen thing. |
[814.48 --> 815.66] And then they just had, like... |
[815.66 --> 819.14] It looked like one of the staff just, like, brought their projector from home and fired it at it. |
[819.14 --> 819.62] And it was fine. |
[819.66 --> 820.10] Like, it was cool. |
[820.14 --> 820.44] It was fun. |
[820.88 --> 822.02] They had speakers, which is good. |
[822.06 --> 822.48] That's a plus. |
[822.48 --> 825.06] And they played Sing. |
[825.52 --> 828.06] I'm sure they didn't have a license for it, but, you know, whatever. |
[828.22 --> 831.32] Because it's just a janky, stupid local event that nobody even knows about anyway. |
[831.78 --> 833.06] But that was the issue. |
[833.18 --> 834.02] Nobody knew about it. |
[834.10 --> 838.16] So it was actually reasonably well attended, given how difficult it was to find out about it. |
[838.22 --> 842.04] But then I started looking into it, and there's, like, tons of stuff like that. |
[842.18 --> 844.72] It would be cool, too, if they allowed... |
[844.72 --> 846.42] Because, like, Zane... |
[846.42 --> 851.98] I can't pronounce his last name, but Zane from Daily Hive Vancouver is a good curator of local stuff. |
[851.98 --> 852.46] Right. |
[852.62 --> 852.80] Okay. |
[852.88 --> 854.76] But, like, a lot of people don't even know that. |
[855.18 --> 855.38] Yeah. |
[855.50 --> 856.54] I would have no way of knowing that. |
[856.64 --> 856.84] Yeah. |
[857.10 --> 857.24] Yeah. |
[857.24 --> 861.86] So, like, if he can post his awesome articles that go to Daily Hive, and he manages people |
[861.86 --> 863.20] and stuff, I believe... |
[863.20 --> 864.38] Are we changing our mind about this? |
[864.38 --> 864.78] If he's able to post that here... |
[864.78 --> 865.18] A little bit. |
[865.20 --> 866.56] Because we were kind of hating on it at the beginning. |
[866.56 --> 866.68] Yeah. |
[866.82 --> 867.50] And now I'm down. |
[867.82 --> 868.12] Okay. |
[868.24 --> 868.60] Okay. |
[868.72 --> 869.78] If it's done properly. |
[869.94 --> 870.22] Okay. |
[870.38 --> 870.64] Okay. |
[870.64 --> 870.76] Okay. |
[870.76 --> 876.48] And, like, one thing that I would like, too, is if these are able to be sourced, and if the source |
[876.48 --> 877.78] can make money. |
[877.78 --> 878.34] Okay. |
[878.50 --> 882.06] So, it doesn't look like there's a monetization strategy, but this is interesting. |
[882.88 --> 888.18] Google is planning to work with local news organizations to help them find and potentially |
[888.18 --> 892.08] publish some of the stories as long as they give credit to the original authors. |
[892.34 --> 899.78] So, they've already got a strategy to sort of propagate awareness of the Bulletin app |
[899.78 --> 903.90] through the medium that it is ultimately going to replace. |
