I first met Natalie at Demo when she was covering tech for PC Magazine. Shortly after Demo, she left Ziff Davis to join TechCrunch, replacing Marshall Kirkpatrick when he departed to join SplashCast.
After staying with TechCrunch for only a short while, Michael Arrington announced her departure through Crunchnotes, attributing the move to “brutal user comments.”
Well, their loss is Adam Curry’s (former MTV VJ) gain. Natalie Del Conte is alive and well over at PodShow and her new show, TeXtra is very bub.blicio.us
TeXtra is about real technology and how it affects real culture and real people. TeXtra has the news as it happens, and has an opinion about it. I have to say, I really enjoy it. Natalie not only covers the news, but also offers refreshing perspective and commentary at the end of each story.
I found Natalie’s new show because she recently attended Adriana’s Gascoigne’s (fellow bub.blicio.us reporter) Girls in Tech party in San Francisco recently and covered it on TeXtra – and even gave a shoutout to bub.blicio.us as well! Thanks Natalie!
TeXtra is not a chick-reads-tech-news show. It’s not a gadget show. And it’s not a gossip show. Host Natali Del Conte is an accomplished technology journalist, having written for PC Magazine , Variety Magazine , MarketWatch, TechCrunch, The San Francisco Examiner , The Oakland Tribune , among others.
She follows consumer and small business technology closely shooting several episodes per week. For more about Natali, please visit her producer page here . For more pictures, visit her gallery page here.
