I know Kevin Rose co-founded Revision3, a while ago. But since the Rev3 site redesign, as well as since the only thing Kevin is part of is diggnation and the occasional guest appearance or co-hosting spot, it seems as if Kevin is not part of Revision3. Or at least its administration.
So tell me Rev3 forum members, is Kevin a part of Revision 3?

The Diggnation page says he's a member of the board, but I don't really know what that means.
I wonder if he even owns a part of Rev3.

Yes he owns part of it. And no, he doesn't run day to day operations. That's what Jim and Prager and Sarah and a few other higher-ups do. Kevin is more involved in his other company, digg.

Kevin stated on 2 or 3 occasions he and Alex are in no way affiliated with Rev3. The only one I can remember is when they were talking about Diggnation becoming a free video podcast, they mentioned something about having nothing to do with Rev3.

That means, he had a few great ideas, implimented them and is now partying going to interesting conferences and events and chilling while other people run it for him.

I know this. I am as obsessed with Rev3 and TechTV with you guys. I'm just repeating what Kevin & Alex said the one time in that episode.

Well you ain't quotin'. Saying he has no affiliation, and nothing to do with the company isn't the same as saying, "we don't make decisions at rev3", which is what they said.
