We really did it, guys: we made a show. On Monday night, Joshua, Nilay, and Paul gathered in front of a live, studio audience, and, frankly, blew minds. Special guest Matias Duarte sat down with Josh for an in-depth interview, along with a little game we like to call "Rate That Skin!" We also got to do a live demonstration of the Lytro light field camera, and Josh and the boys ran through their favorite "New Thing," with 15 seconds apiece to share their hearts. And that's just scratching the surface. Basically, we made TV... er, web magic, and we'd like to share it with you; please join us as we unveil season 1, episode 1, of On The Verge.
