ZDTV | Television About Computing
The dotcom boom had everything. Startups. IPOs. Browser wars. Overnight millionaires. What it clearly needed was its own TV channel.So in 1998, Ziff-Davis launched ZDTV, a 24-hour cable network devoted entirely to computers, technology and the Internet. Programming included The Screen Savers, Call for Help, Fresh Gear, Internet Tonight, Silicon Spin and The Money Machine—news, reviews, advice and entertainment for a world just beginning to discover that technology was about to change pretty much everything.
