Im November 1998 um 15 Uhr begann ein Stück deutsche Internet- und TV-Geschichte: NBC GIGA ging an den Start. In einer fünfstündigen Live-Sendung erzählten junge Journalistinnen und Journalisten darüber, was im Internet passiert. Sie analysierten Memes, sie zockten Games, sie stellten Webseiten vor, reagierten auf Nachrichten und interagierten mit Fans im Live-Chat. Kurz: Sie haben all das gemacht, was heute ganz selbstverständlich war. Damals war das revolutionär. Und es konnte nicht für immer weitergehen. Wir erzählen euch die Geschichte vom wichtigsten Internet-Format des deutschen Fernsehens und hören dafür von einem der Hosts von damals: Tom Westerholt (heute: Deutschlandfunk Nova uvm.) Unterstützt uns auf ⁠⁠Steady⁠⁠, damit es uns weiterhin gibt: ⁠⁠https://steady.page/de/browserhistory/about ⁠⁠ Unsere wichtigsten Quellen:⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Interview mit Tom Westerholt Rückblick auf 7 Jahre GIGA von der Fansite Giga Search DWDL über 15 Jahre GIGA Die NYT über die Fernsehrevolution von GIGA Spiegel über GIGA anno 1999 Clips dieser Folge: NBC GIGA 1999 Flashback 1.

Rural Alberta is not backing down. In recent town halls, long-time farmers and landowners jeered senior UCP political staffers pitching the government's plan for cleaning up decades of oil and gas well problems. They see broken trust — and they're demanding real accountability. In this episode, we're joined by Drew Anderson of The Narwhal (3:00), who's been in the thick of this coverage. He'll help us make sense of the divide: the Alberta of tight-knit rural communities, and the Alberta of big-oil power brokers.

Veterans Affairs has quietly rolled out major changes to its coverage of shockwave therapy, a non-invasive treatment many vets say has been the only thing that's actually kept them moving, working, and out of chronic pain. Echelon Wellness CEO Igor Gimelshtein tells us why he thinks VAC is making a mistake.  1:15:45 | Cam in a Pizzeria says public debates about minimum wage are missing major details, Coreen and Robert have thoughts on our Nov. 12 Brian Lilley interview, Jason has a theory about MP Matt Jeneroux's early retirement, Chris has a message for would-be homebuyers, and Laura says she's willing to go to jail to fight for workers' rights.

Etsy's new CEO, Kruti Patel Goyal, just revealed her first major vision for the platform—and this could reshape how sellers grow, get traffic, and use AI on Etsy. I'm unpacking all the key takeaways, what they really mean for sellers, and what to expect next.   Here's what I cover:  • The leadership shift and what Kruti's past role tells us about Etsy's next phase  • Etsy's plan to use AI to amplify human creativity, not replace it  • How traffic and discovery are evolving (and how offsite ads + ChatGPT integration play in)  • The truth about SEO changes—why shorter titles might help or hurt  • The new enforcement push on handmade vs. AI-generated art  • Fixes coming for seller support, international shipping, and multiple shop management  • Etsy's roadmap for personalization features, analytics, and even in-person markets  • My thoughts on whether these updates will help or hurt long-time sellers   This is the breakdown every Etsy seller needs to stay ahead in 2025. #EtsyUpdate #EtsySellers #EtsySEO #EtsyGrowth #AIandEtsy     Grow faster than 99% of Etsy shops
