Yahoo’s new technology business video show, TechTicker, is set to go live soon (officially, in the next few weeks, but I’m hearing that some early stuff may come out as soon as next week).

The show will be hosted by Henry Blodget (Silicon Alley Insider), Sarah Lacy (Business Week columnist) and Paul Kedrosky and will have 10-20 original segments per week day, focusing on financial news and the CNBC crowd.

Screen shots are starting to leak, and we have this one with Lacy and Blodget just prior to locking into a passionate embrace, I’m sure. Stay tuned for more launch information. Meanwhile, keep watching Wallstrip.

I spoke to some one close to the deal who confirmed Jossip’s story. The deal is said to be focused on signing Lindsay Campbell. CBS was keen to have Campbell on board and a cast iron contract meant that acquiring WallStrip was the only way they could get to her.

WallStrip as a video blog/ show has previously met with mixed reviews. The dry topics and patchy scripting being pulled off only by the shining talent of Campbell. As a deal it has a sense of “What The?” about it. My source says the company has zero revenue. Campbell has talent but if this was the driving reason behind the buy, they’d better hope she can tap dance as well.

Update 5/22: the acquisition is now confirmed publicly by an investor. Price was not disclosed.
