Tune in to CNET Live today

Hosts Tom Merritt and Brian Cooley have struck gold with their new Live streaming program on CNET TV. With a hot live guest every week and an opportunity for viewers to call in to get their personal tech queries answered, it's the best thing to do on a Thursday afternoon...since afternoon cartoons!

Past guests include Justin Kan of JustinTV and James Kao at Green Citizen, who shed some wisdom on earth-friendly tech. Last week, Biz Stone from Twitter.com joined CNET Live to talk about the future of mini-blogging. Tom and Brian also took a number of calls, many having to do with iTunes, Apple, and the best new version of Linux. Tom craved a mini-lightsaber, a perfect addition to his newly acquired box of Star Wars toys.

This week's show features CEO and President of Kyte TV, Daniel Graf (read CNET's Webware review). Not only is Brian going to chat with him about the burgeoning new instant video blog, but he's also going to get a live demo. Later in the show, Brian will reveal his pick for this week's Best of the Web, while Tom is going to talk to Zach Wilson, the winner of the Cellflix Festival Video Contest. And as always, Tom and Brian will be putting on their thinking caps to answer questions from CNET Live viewers. Want to talk to the Cooley-Merritt super duo directly? Call 1-888-900-CNET today during the show!

If that's not enough, there will also be a First Look at the new Xbox 360 Elite. Is it back in black and worth the cash or totally overrated? Find out on this week's edition of CNET Live today, at 1 p.m. Pacific/ 4 p.m. Eastern on CNET TV.
