Thursday 3 – sneak peeks

Posted: 07:26 PM ET

Our weekly glimpse into what's been coming across our desks here at "News To Me." This week we're going to give you a sneak peek into what is coming up on future shows. Without giving too much away of course. Let's just say that these three sites and the people behind them are all scheduled to appear on "News To Me" soon! Some sooner than others!

The Scary City:
This experience was created by the woman behind the Executive Producer of "LonelyGirl15." That viral hit was a low budget flash in the pan compared to "The Scary City." It's a $5.2 million dollar multimedia thrill ride designed to engage, involve and scare the crap out of you!

SixDegrees.org:
This holiday season you can give a gift card... or you can give a GOOD card! SixDegrees.org is a foundation created by a guy you know really well. It's a site that links you to over a million charities worldwide. Through the "Good Card" program sixdegrees.org is enabling you to give the gift of giving. Explore the site today and then meet its founder on "News To Me," Saturday December 20th.

Ideas by Chuck:
Hungry after kicking around the footbag with your friends? Crack open your Hacky Snack! – Tired of brushing? Chew some toothpaste gum! – Hate everything on prime time TV? Maybe an episode of "Chuck Dickens, Illiterate Trucker" will turn you around. Those are all ideas thought up by Chuck. Chuck doesn't have the time, the funds or the energy to turn his ideas into reality... so he's giving them away on his blog! Chuck is going to join us on "News To Me" early next year... that is, if someone hasn't already taken one of his ideas and made him a millionaire!

...so there are three little teases to let you know what were working on for future "News To Me" episodes. See you this weekend!

This drives me crazy. The woman who created "The Scary City" is not "the woman behind Lonelygirl15." She worked on the series for a few short weeks. I have never seen someone milk something quite like this woman has.

Lara... As "AC" might say, Thanks for keeping us honest. I've tweaked the post to reflect your correction.

Thanks!
