Current TV - remember, we reported on it, the new youth channel from Al Gore - has announced a new alliance with social networking site Bebo through which the channel hopes to find new talent. The first joint venture between the two companies will be the Your Shout! Weekend in which Bebo users will be offered the chance to get in front of the camera as presenters of Current TV for a day. This is what Bebo President, International Joanna Shields has to say about it all: "We are at the forefront of a true revolution of personal expression and, like Current, Bebo provides a unique platform for people to communicate and collaborate with other people anywhere in the world on the Web. This relationship with Current TV is our first strategic partnership with a TV network and delivers the most appropriate international television platform: Current's fresh and different perspective is a perfect match for the Bebo ethos, as they provide the means for young people to share their passion and creativity".
