Discovery Channel in Canada has a feature called Planet You in which
particular web sites are featured. Tonight they will be covering my site,
which is created on, uploaded from and entirely viewable on a Commodore
64.

It will likely be less than one minute.

Discovery.ca will archive the programme, and in a few days separately
archive the feature.

I cannot see Canadian TV from Sweden (or can I?). Could you send a link
when the program is available on-line.

Thanks for that.

It won't load here with Firefox but does with IE, in case anyone is having
problems viewing the video.

Nice clip.

Odd, because I've watched videos on that site before using Firefox. What
version are you running?

Other than that the host's fingers were covering up most of the photograph
she was holding up. Perhaps the OP could post them online and share the URL
with everyone.
