A Digital Lifestyle State of Mind

"These are the days of miracle and wonder, this is the long distance call..."

From The Heart Of Telecom Beach...™
On The Air...On the Web.™

Today, we have more incredible ways to communicate with each other than ever before. Email, voicemail, sophisticated pagers and wireless phones, laptop computers, ATM cards - even radio and television. Contacting anyone, anywhere at anytime is instant, but perhaps not spontaneous.

"...the way the camera follows us in slo-mo, the way we look to us all .oh yeah..."

The person who accepts and understands all the techno-tools of the day,and uses them to be a more effective communicator will be a leader in business, and in personal life, using the power of what we call the Digital Lifestyle.

"...these are the days of miracle and wonder, so don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry..." -Paul Simon


 It's All About Solutions

Talking about the future is a thing of the past.Living a digital lifestyle catapults us to a new level of interactive fun with an age-old method for success: more effective personal communication.

The quiet riot of the interactive revolution is upon us, but it's all in our heads. It is the mind that has wandered into virgin territory. All of a sudden, the necessity to comprehend the power of technology is being transformed into the desire to embrace its potential and enrich our lives.

The T Channel has chosen to educate, enlighten, inform and entertain by interpreting the impact of technology on all of us in a conversational way. Using that same technology to create a bridge to understanding, redefining the language of how to find and use today's most influential global currency: information.

"I prefer to look on the future as something which is not written in stone."
- Jean-Luc Picard,
Star Trek: The Next Generation

The T Channel is an innovative media company dedicated to promoting the digital lifestyle, a place where imagination seems to linger, thinking up new realities for interpreting technology that empower the global community, to live in a new way, integrating today's technology effectively into our everyday lives.


Gene Roddenberry Slept Here

The T Channel is located in Gene Roddenberry's hometown, the San Diego-Baja Region, an area widely recognized as a world-class producer of technological solutions for the digital age. (We have our share of interesting luminaries and cutting edge thinkers, too). Poised for the millennium, we are in the heart of what is fast becoming known as:

"San Diego is really a natural nexus and even a fulcrum for leveraging the new technology to the rest of the world."
-Robert Plotkin, World Trade Center

Business are faced with the problem of how to reach their audience with the right message in the right medium at the right time; time after time with positive results. How we do business is by building relationships within the San Diego/Baja Region, with visionary companies, with the world, and with every single human being who struggles to understand, and yearns to learn. The link to these relationships is the T Channel.


The T Channel @ A Glance

At the heart of the digital lifestyle is the revolutionary T Channel (Technology Channel). Through a unique "multicasting" of entertainment programs that bring to life the technological twist on all aspects of daily activities, the T Channel has the ability to reach the global audience, dramatically affecting the balance of power in today's traditional media marketplace, where advertisers spend their media dollars.

Another opportunity exists for the T Channel to help people live the digital lifestyle: acting as a network for technology-based companies to sell their products and service interactively.

"We should be using the power of television in a transforming way to change everything we do."
-John Egar


Now, Smart Programming Has A Whole New Meaning.

The T Channel programming attracts and builds a loyal audience by offering a brand that gives great value in three different ways:

First, practical guides and tips for using new technologies and devices for solving everyday problems.

Second, programming for every member of the family, Mom, Dad, children, teens and young adults, each with their unique interests and needs.

Third - and most importantly, each program has its own web site, where the audience can get a wealth of related information, print out instructions, get links to other related sites, even see video clips from previous shows.

The television programming will drive the audience to our web sites for an interactive experience...in turn; the web sites will drive web surfers - the audience-- to our television programming. This is an extremely powerful technique for building large, loyal audiences.

All the web sites for all the DTTV programs are linked together under one brand: The T Channel on the Web. With its unique practicalinformation, it will attract millions of web surfers the on-line audience. By providing sites on the Web that are a single place to go to get all the information you need on a particular subject, we offer the kind of values that surfers are looking for. The T Channel will be where the search engines - such as Yahoo and Infoseek - will send people to find what they need.

Because we will be the definitive place to go for practical, useful and badly needed information, our branding will become the logo that consumer electronics firms will want to put on their boxes and literature. The T channel programming, on television and on the web, will answer the needs of the consumer, the technology companies and the consumer electronics companies.
