ABOUT ZEITGEIST

Willie Geist has maintained since 1996 that the Internet, like the automobile and the television before it, is a fad. He gets his information from microfiche at the public library and communicates with friends through the good old-fashioned United States Postal Service, thank you very much.

So then why is he blogging? Two words: community service. After an ugly incident at his weekly Sudoku game, Willie was sentenced to speak to young people about anger management. He heard that "young people" looked at the Internet, so the blog became his punishment. It's Willie's way of giving back.

In Zeitgeist, you'll find the kind of expert analysis of news and pop culture that has made Willie one of the most beloved figures in American life today (you can look it up). You'll also get raw, behind-the-scenes footage from MSNBC. You'll even get to talk back to Willie. So give the blog a try and catch the Internet fad before it's gone for good.



Boyz in the 'Wood

I made a promise to myself a long time ago that I would never let obscure cable news fame go to my head. In that spirit, I sat down to be interviewed for the slick new website that serves my hometown of Ridgewood, New Jersey. I no longer talk to most of my childhood friends because I find they can't relate to my celebrity lifestyle, so I thought this would be a good way to get in touch with them. You can see the interview at http://ridgewoodtv.com/. When you inevitably get sick of listening to me, check out the profile of my friend and celebrity chef Frank DeMarco and watch the highlights of Ridgewood High School's dramatic, last-second Thanksgiving Day win over Paramus.
