The Today Show Today
Friday, April 18, 2008 at 10:48AM
In case you missed it, click here to watch my segment on today's episode of The Today Show.
I had prepared to talk about ten Web sites that can save you time but the segment only allowed for three. A few of my other choices that didn't make the cut: Mint, FlightStats, NEXTbus, Read Later, and FriendFeed.
Going on The Today Show was a great way to kick off my weekend. Well, that and the egg and cheese breakfast wrap that I took from the green room to eat at my desk with my vanilla chai! I'm going to guest host The 404 podcast now. Tune in or watch live if you can!
Have a great weekend blogosphere!

They really don't leave any time for segments with any detail. It requires you to throw something out there without qualifying it. Example - OpenID is a great new option, but the reality is that very few sites use it right now. But if you brought that up, the segment wouldn't see so "positive". People might spend more than 30 minutes figuring out that one of their sites does not support OpenID! Good work, given the constraints you were working under!
Natali,
Great segment on Today. I definitely am going to look into Mint.com a little bit further. Anyhow great segment not enough Natali though. lol You looked great, hair, styling, make-up, bam!!
Thanks again for the great info and it teases us just enough where we go and do our own research and enough where we keep tuning into see more Natali!

Natali,
Just watched your segment over here, it 5:13am Sat morning. We get Today delayed down under but at least we get it..
It was great to see you in High Def on the big screen tv...suh...weet!
You sure know how to fit a lot into the short amount of time that you get.
Just want to say thanks too, for the heads up on these segments so that we can catch you on the TV and not just on "Loaded".
You do great stuff, keep it up!!

Great job again. You have been getting such great national news coverage lately. Keep up the great work.
Enjoyed the segment. My main takeaway is that they really need to tape Loaded at a higher resolution. Nat looked great on HDTV :).
Girl, your are hitting the big time! And fast!
A complete pleasure to watch.
Natali, you did extremely well in a challenging format. I still can't get over it.
I'm thinking Natali could have pulled off each of those segments...
organize your life by keeping tabs on your keys, mail, and laundry
helpful websites
time-saving gadgets
fast fitness with jump rope and combo-moves
go-to meals (really? chicken and meatloaf?)
Take a breath, celebrate, and then shock the world with the answer to "what's next."
Congratulations!
Holy crap those guys race through everything. Next time I'll record it with MythTV and use the variable speed playback to slow it down to a less frantic pace.
Natali, I thought you were great in this segment! Thank you for mentioning OpenTable. I never heard of it until now.
Natali, I was pleasantly surprised to see you on CNBC as I was coming back from lunch. I generally avoid watching the segments, but yours actually kept me engaged - it was nice to see another perspective for a change and a much needed break from the insanity that is busy season at work. Thanks!
