Today marks the day our website transitions fully from current.tv to current.com with a fancy new concept and design.
Leave your fond memories of current.tv here... we'll all miss you and your awkward .tv domain extension.

I WON'T miss the "Decending Rainbow Prism o' Navigation" between the 4 dots in the logo and the header navs. Mostly because It make it look like there was this weird inverted pink pyramid right above "TV Network" and "Watch & Vote"

I wont miss the two machines that ran the whole thing....
i will miss the days when 10k hits were enough to make us happy.
I wont miss the wonkiness of all those interconnections to cms
I will miss the small team that complained to ops about everything
I wont miss those 3 am calls and those last minute oh sh#$$#%$%^ts -

Goodbye current.tv
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend never did
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Current was 404 Not found
Goodbye current.tv
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than visual
More than just our website
*****adapted from Elton John's Candle In The Wind -
A pod-family wall is worth a thousand images.And makes sense to no one. -
Tiled-image headers...still love 'em. -
kitty pagehere's the old kitty page in all its glory -
I already miss the simplicity! Producer shoots pod, uploads pods, pod gets greenlights, pod gets on TV, producer gets paid! What a beautiful and exciting concept that was. Oh, the nostalgia.

You see joe, the whole site is now like a Hyphy Ice Cream Truck... no need for a focused promo.

I'm up at 6:30am to be on the stage, but here it is 1am. I wanted to say goodbye. That and I'm catching up on Family Guy in the hotel room.
Current.TV predates my career at Current, and even then, it was yet an earlier version of Current.TV. Goodbye Current.TV. Goodbye even earlier version of Current.TV.
And the Star Wars Family Guy is hilarious. -
Where are my uploaded video? Is anyone else having the same problem..hit me up

Could one of yu guys address the issues of upload problems with video egg. As a previous producer on the old site I'd like to put some new stuff up but can't get your new site to take my uploads. On the old site we had a community of producers, you've thrown us to the wolves for the general public. Is another YOU Tube what you really want? That's least common denominator quallity. I thought Current was going to be more.......

Hi bsundancer--we're in the midst of tracking down these upload issues, but in the meantime, if you have trouble uploading please send us an email at support@current.com so we can take care of it.

I'm trying to upload a 7 minute pod - everything went ok until the yello "uploading" bar filled up. Now it's stuck on the full uploading bar. Does that mean it's finished or should I wait for an "upload completed" sign of some sort?? How long does that normally take? It's been over an hour with a full uploading bar but nothing else...anyone know anything about his?
Thanks.
