Perfect for chicks who read Wired and Real Simple – who would flip channels between Discovery and the DIY Network – Revision3 launched a spunky female-oriented talk show called popSiren, which will include everything from DIY projects to interviews to science experiments.
popSiren is hosted by Sarah Lane and Jessica Corbin, two pretty and intelligent ladies – lest you think beauty and brains can’t co-exist within a single woman – who navigate the show through cute banter, on-location segments, in-house interviews, Mr. Wizard-type demonstrations and the term of the day.
(Episode 1’s term of the day, by the way, is an acronym from UrbanDictionary.com – "ACB" – which translates into “Air Conditioner Booty,” the phenomenon by which a woman’s posterior protrudes not unlike an air conditioner window unit. It also happens to be a feature which co-host Corbin is to proud to demonstrate on her own person.)
I suppose a comparable format has worked for Diggnation, but I don’t see Lane and Corbin amassing Rose-like, rockstar following any time soon. Unless you’re crowned King Geek by a horde of social news contributors, its hard to command a significant audience with all the other fun distractions online. (Wanting to check out a Website featured on the show itself, for example, may send viewers off on a clicking tangent.)
Still, popSiren is a fantastic concept and the show whizzes along as it illuminates the need for more female-skewed programming online. Just remember: we ladies have short attention spans too.
