TV Channels On Line Invented - TVCOL.TV
TV Channels On Line Invented - TVCOL.TV
March 13, 2010 - Lauren Traub Teton, internet entrepreneur claims she has invented the perfect TV channel format for the Internet. The new TV channel software created by Ms. Teton is called TVCOL.TV for "TV Channel OnLine." Teton says "TV is new again. Three minutes is the new 30- minute show and 5 minutes is the new one-hour show. Telephones are the new TVs. And real people shown in video using products they really use is the new advertising, instead of paid actors pretending to use products they've never used."
"We need this TV Channel template for the internet now! Anyone who has over 9 videos posted on YouTube understands that they need an inviting attractive way to offer viewers their content in categories. Youtube serves the viewer by offering related content by other producers, but that will distract the viewer away from the target videos. We work WITH Youtube so your viewers have the option of also easily seeing what YOU have to offer on YOUR channel."
Teton and her tech partners have created TV Channels Online in an easy-to use format that let's the owner of the channel, group together videos or even text articles of their choosing from anywhere on the net, and categorize them to offer the viewing public on one site. Once a video is posted online, it takes 3 minutes to add it to your channel, and can be done from any computer that's online. See examples of TVCOL.TV at Twifties.TV and SnowboardSecrets.TV.
"The format is simple to use and available for licensing so that any person or business can now have their own TV channel on the internet virtually overnight" says Teton. "You bring the URL, we bring the software and get you started. We've been waiting for someone to figure out the progression of TV onto the internet. Original content and ease of use is it. Rehashing network TV shows from the 80's is not it."
Ms. Teton is the creator of: Twifties, SnowboardSecrets, Name One,TakingNames.com, Flexmeters.com, SnowboardEventsCalendar.com, SnowboardRegistry.com, SnowboardProfiles.com, realpeoplemarketing.com, OneTakeVideo.TV, and more.
For more info and to get your TV Channel Online up and running, contact Lauren@SnowboardSecrets.com and put "TVCOL.TV" in the subject line.
Ms. Teton has posted over 100 video vignettes on Youtube in 1 year and has received over 100,000 views. She has several "hit" videos that have gotten over 1000 views a day. And she has figured out a way to monetize her videos.
All this and she still has time to run 3 businesses and snowboard 30 days a year. She teaches her easy quick method of One Take Video that allows users to make and upload a video vignette in an hour or less. No expensive equipment or previous training or experience is needed to make videos this way. To learn Lauren's method for fast "no waste" video production contact Lauren@SnowboardSecrets.com and put "One Take Video" in the subject line.

Twifties Winter Games and Fashion February 23 at Ski Sundown for Sportsters Age 50 and Up
Racing on snow for people age 50 and up happens February 23 at Ski Sundown resort in New Hartford, CT. Race, have fun, and model your best snow gear of all time.
New Hartford, CT, February 16, 2010 --Ski Sundown resort in New Hartford, CT is the hot spot on Tuesday, February 23 when the Twifties Winter Games will be held for older snowsports enthusiasts. Winter sports enthusiasts who are age 50 or better by 12/31/2010 at all levels of skill are invited to compete. Events at the games are racing in the Giant Slalom and Downhill for skiers and snowboarders. Cross Country and Snow Shoe Races with snow shoes provided round out the race roster. The price is $35 to compete. The Connecticut Ski Council is organizing the event with Ski Sundown. A hot lunch is offered during the award ceremonies for $22 subject to availability.
This year “Twifties” is the title sponsor. Twifties are the fun people around and above age 50. The Twifties concept was created by Lauren Traub Teton, age 53, who is a competitive amateur snowboarder and professional product namer. “Fifty is the new twenty” says Ms. Teton. “This will be a fantastic Twifties event. Anyone who is out on snow age 50 and up is automatically a fun person. See what Twifties are doing to have fun on www.Twifties.TV.”
Attendees are encouraged to wear their best snow fashions from the cedar closet at the Twifties Winter Games. Prizes will be awarded for best fashions and most duct tape. Registration is from 8 to 9:00 am.

Twifties are invited to come and watch the events and meet fun people even if not competing.
About Twifties
Twifties is a movement of the people in their late 40s and up. People over 50 control 50% of consumer spending in the US, yet few “fun” products are marketed to this group. Lauren Traub Teton combined the words “fifty” and “twenty” to create “Twifty” as a handle for the lively enthusiastic people who are the target of the bullseye of older consumers, and envisions Twifties people meeting for more fun events like this one, Twifties dance parties all across the country and the world. And select Twifties approved products. Meet Twifties and see how they have fun on www.Twifties.TV.

Who is the most important person in your life?
Who is the most important person in your life?
by Lauren Traub Teton
When Beyonce Knowles was asked this question on 60 Minutes last night, her answer surprised me. She replied "I guess I am." Brava Beyonce for your focus and candor! And that policy seems to really be working for her. Last year she earned around $80 million and employed hundreds of people. She brought joy and light and beauty and fun to millions of her fans on tour and through recordings. She is living the life she always wanted and envisioned from the time she was a child.
Yet many of us think that society subtly discourages allowing ourselves to be the focus of our lives. Words like "selfish" and "self-centered" may be directed to people who focus on their lives first. "Selfless" shows up as a synonym for "unselfish" in the dictionary, but scratch below the surface and you will find that people who can help others must be sound and centered first."Selfless" is a misnomer and a wrong concept. If you are wanting and in need you don't have much to give others.
We should all follow Beyonce's beautiful lead and be the most important persons in our life.Not being the most important person in your life has down sides. Of course parents of small children and guardians of people who need help would do well to fill up their glass and then share. The airlines tell you to put on your own oxygen mask first. You can't help others if you are not thriving. Not being the center of your life is like driving down the highway at 65 mph while eating, talking, and shaving! It is safer and more beneficial to all if you focus on the task of driving, or the task of running your life.
If people strive to thrive in their own lives first, they will have plenty of goodness and abundance to share with others. Beyonce is a wonderful role model.

Zestra vs. Astroglide
by Lauren Traub Teton
Just a few quick off the cuff observations:
Zestra is an oily product, and is scented. Astroglide seems to be more water-based and is unscented, disappearing when it dries, instead of leaving a residue.
Zestra comes in packets, vs. Astroglide in a bottle with a reclosable top.

Hot Tuna Review, Ridgefield Playhouse, Nov. 2009
Hot Tuna Review, Ridgefield Playhouse, November 29, 2009
by Lauren Traub Teton
What an awesome show! From the getgo, the three musicians were sitting onstage ready to go at 8:05 pm and played through til after 11, with one intermission. It seemed like they were chomping at the bit to play because they have such a darned good time! Barry Mitterhof was the third musician for this acoustic evening. He plays with Jorma a lot and has been touring with the Tuna, namely Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady since 2004. Did you know that Jorma and Jack have been playing together since they were teens (shout out to Charismatic Megafauna) And of course they both played with the Jefferson Airplane. That factoid is thrown in for my younger readers.
The music was heavenly, as if channeled to them by angels. I usually slip out of the Ridgefield Playhouse before the encore to beat the traffic (though there's never much of a wait at this wonderful intimate local venue.) Tonight I stayed through 'til the end, and even got a front row seat for the last song, a polka where Jorma says his (now ex) girlfriend called him "Old Santy Clause." Called "Just Because." Watching them communicate telepathically as one can do up close added a whole new dimension to the show. No video from me tonight, I am taking a night off. But you can see how much fun the shows are at the Ridgefield Playhouse by checking out my Dark Star Orchestra vid (meet some Twifties at the show!) and the Boz Scaggs Gala.
Jorma always keeps it fresh with some new material, but played the one song I HAD to hear - "Genesis." Also an extended jam on "Good Shepherd." I elect this band as Super Twifties! They look like they're really having fun when they play, and they've gotten better over time. They stand as an inspiring example to Twifties everywhere - the FUN people!!
