Beginning today (Monday), CNBC is relaunching its web site, so that you can watch the programming from your computer — and it’s adding hours of live video not available until now.
To see all there is, go to the site and click on the various tabs. The company took us through a feature demonstration last week, and it’s extensive. CNBC has hired 55 more reporters and others editors for this; they’ll be posting 75 new videos each day.
It features between three and eight hours a live programming in a box at the top left hand side (see screen shot below). There’s a video player that you can place on your desktop to watch the live video. In the video player lower down (bottom right), there will be featured video news clips, and on other pages the video player will show clips relevant to accompanying stories.
The new CNBC will also feature a live newscast “Market in a Minute” at the top and bottom of each hour. The site will carry extensive blogging. A monthly subscription of $9.95 a month to “CNBC Plus” will provide three commericial-free live streams: CNBC U.S., CNBC Asia Pacific, and CNBC Europe.

Melissa Lee is probably one of the best “Wall St. Beat” reporters available on TV, or anywhere for that matter. Why doesn’t CNBC use her more, perhaps as an anchor? You have a lot of “horses” (M. Haines & Co.), who bring a somewhat worn-out attitude towards the extremely edgy world of equity deals, trading and M&A, as well as the ramifications of the technical side of market happenings. Ms. Lee brings insight, intelligence and the upbeat attitude of someone who truly understands the fundamental movements of the markets she covers. CNBC should give her her own program! TK

[...] Hello Readers. The internet’s ability to produce entertainment celebrity is no secret. Dane Cook’s Myspace ascendance, Amanda Congdon’s explosion from Rocketboom to ABC, Lonely Island short films finding company on SNL. Already abundant examples of internet spawned stars received a further boost with recent delclarations of revamped online portals from CNBC and CBS. Television network entrance into the digital realm will likely result in a transformation of entertainment industry logistics and job positions. The holiday season is always littered with premonitions, so here are a few Angelos inspired predictions for online video 2007: - Television networks attempting to build online notoriety will recruit proven talent from existing, experienced start-ups. Be prepared tech entrepreneurs! - Busta Rhymes will pioneer a hip-hop flavored portal sponsored by a beverage company. Whooo HA! - An increasing pool of talent will a attract an increasing number of agents and third party services. Until these third party services reach a saturation point (something which will probably happen quickly) expect an explosion of free, high quality content. - Investors will benefit from developing film, television, and even theatrical cast-aways, a practice already demonstrated by IndieVest. Indievest is a collection of private investors responsible for cultivating independent films for movie theatre distribution. Many independent films fail to acheive widespread success until DVD circulation, but Indievest hopes to capitalize on the once primary, now intermediary theatre market. - Hair treatments will finally produce a mustache, allowing me to groom a beautiful beard, surpassing the trendy Honest Abe look I often adorn during the winter months.
