In less than a month, when we host our third-annual NewTeeVee Live conference, I will have the pleasure of interviewing Quincy Smith, chief executive of CBS Interactive, onstage. It will be a freewheeling interview about everything from his company’s TV.com to Hulu to TV Everywhere.

Smith was one of the two keynote speakers at our inaugural NewTeeVee Live conference in 2007, and he was prescient and entertaining in his presentation. I would expect more fireworks from the man during our fireside chat.

NewTeeVee Live is being held on Nov. 12 in San Francisco; you can buy your ticket now at a special rate of $395 through Friday. Our line-up this year includes Reed Hastings of Netflix, Amy Banse of Comcast and our Next Big Thing sessions that will center around the most promising startups in the space.
