I stayed up until 2 AM again to watch the second WebbAlert show (embedded above). I stand by my words written twenty-four hours ago: this show is a winner.

Some will comment below that I’m only giving the show a thumbs up in the hope for TechCrunch mentions (there was one today for our Amazon/Webvan story, for example). They’re right, but for the wrong reasons. I’m genuinely excited to see what is being covered and, as I said yesterday, bloggers are going to see a mention on the show as a badge of honor and buzz about it. That’s a brilliant business decision.

Some people commented yesterday that the show should allow user comments around each episode. I agree, it’s a no brainer and I hope to see it soon.
