Y2K Diary [ 18.04.00 ] 109. e-mania Channel 4 is Britain's fourth national TV network.  State-owned and successfully run.  It has a cable and satellite film network, FilmFour and is planning to launch a whole list of digital channels before the end of the year. Channel 4 has always been the home of talent discovery of the most ingenious and groundbreaking.  Nevertheless, Britain's networks like so many of their American and European counterparts have lacked true innovation.  With only a few producing 21st century output such as truly interactive programmes, with a content diving into the e-fever. Well this is about to change with the e-millionaire show! "Have you got a fantastic idea for a website?  We've got millions to invest!  Be an investor capitalist." The show will be launched in May and if it matches its partners such as the giant Andersen Consulting and new comers Resolve Media, presenting here the extent of non-content, graphic-free and worthless colours with media Mook in a seamlessly bland and gruesome fashion, the show promises to be very ghastly indeed.
