We’ve been working on a number of interesting new projects here at Revision3 over the past few months, and one of them debuts tonight, in beta form. It’s our new Deals FTW show, and it’s a bit of a departure for us.

I’ve been a big fan of Woot! for years, and I’ve been captivated by home shopping shows as well. I’ve always thought there would be a way to mash-up internet video, shopping, product demonstrations and a bit of an edge. Tonight, here at Revision3, we’re going to take a first stab at a live product / shopping experience, using our live player, Meebo-based chat, and our test partners at HP.

When you tune in, you’ll see me, joined by a number of Revision3 employees and friends, showing off four very different HP notebooks. From the page, in turn, you can link over to HPs site to explore, customize and price out, and buy these notebooks.

But that’s not all. You’ll also see the debut of our new Revision3 store, and a sneak peek at some of the awesome new shirts, hats and other branded gear we’ve been developing.

Why do a shopping show? Because we think there’s an opportunity to introduce you to some cool new products, and make money at the same time. To be clear, we teamed up with HP for two reasons – one because they make some pretty nice products. But primarily because it’s a way to bring more money into Revision3, and to help pay for the shows that we produce, and give away for free.

So if you like what we do at Revision3, come support us. Check out www.revision3.com/dealsftw, watch what we’re doing, and comment in the chat room. And let us know what you think. We’re going to work to incorporate your comments in the next version of DealsFTW. Thanks for watching, and don’t remember to click on our Check Prices link and buy stuff from our stores!
