Jobs and Gates: Cats and dogs livin' together

Last night Steve Jobs and Bill Gates sat on the same stage together and had a virtual love-in over their competing product lines... full coverage here... nothing earth-shattering to report, however. Earlier in the day Jobs revealed that the Apple TV will soon sport a new source of content... some fly by night operation called YouTube. Yeah, like THAT'LL work...

(sarcasm off)

Hooking up with Google for the iPhone seems to be paying off in other ways... YouTube, as you may recall is owned by Google. This new option gives every Apple TV owner a whole new universe of content... some good, some not. It also firmly entrenches the video podcaster as a major contributor to Apple TV entertainment since many (if not most) video podcasts have a home on YouTube as well. Ninjas and Tiki Bars for everyone!
