TV 2.0! Oh Ho

Have you heard of web 2.0? I am sure you have. If you have not, let me explain: broadly speaking this is the version of web, opposed to web 1.o where the users put the content. It is the user generated content. Easy, eh? provide a platform and watch the fun... Whereas in the first version you had to provide the platform as well as the content.
In this version what content are people adding? it could be anything really, but self expression in terms of blogs, podcasts, videos, groups etc etc are the man constituents.

It is expected with some justifiable and some way out expectations that such sites, driven by the primordial urge among men and women to be seen and heard, are set to rock... and ring in the cash soon... Be that as it may [or may not in the future] the purspose of this blog is not to expound the virtues and vices of web2.0.

It is to bring to your notice TV 2.0 [not to be mixed with TV 18 the famous TV company in India and by the name of it very futuristic too having gone upto 18 while we are still in version 2.0]

While the internet guys have been talking from rooftops about web2.0, TV 2.0 have slowly and securely cropped into our living rooms and is actually rocking.... Quite literally rocking all over the screen in all shapes and sizes.... Yes From Naach Baliye 2 to Jhalak Dikla Ja to MOMMY's Boogey Woogey to probably many more in the future. Not to forget the ever green The Great Indian Laughter Challenge Dwitiya [Second].
It all began really in poor taste many years back, kids dressed up in adult clothes, mouthing adult songs and gyrating like adults in Boogey Woogey.. It took some time to catch on and now it as spread like wild fire.... Every celebrity (?), every yongster, every mom and dad wants to dance on TV. TV companies are drawing new crowds and new ideas [inspirations from more foreign shows] coming up every day.
We now have several dance shows, several laughter shows and several, one reality show [Big Boss, the original english version had i think a it of sex too, this one in the true Indian tradition, only titilates without the real thing]....

TV has rediscovered itself folks... while the internet guys are still debating the relative virtues of web1.0 and web 2.0... By the time the debate is over, TV will reach version 18.....
