The Next Internet Millionaire’s first episode is available, and if you are interested in Internet Marketing, or if you like reality TV, especially “The Apprentice”, then I think you should check it out.

Although there wasn’t much of an introduction to the contestants, they were all very likable, and I didn’t really have a favorite. At least not yet.
One thing that was missing from the show, and I hope it stays MIA, is the childish clicks that form on most shows. I thought that all of the contestants were very nice to each other, and no one was calling anyone names.
The contestants were given a presentation about Simpleology from Mark Joyner, and then they had to design a web site for it. The teams only had 2 hours, so they didn’t have to code the site, it was just on paper. They also had to give a presentation to “sell” their ideas.
The show still had the normal “features” of most reality shows, contestants compete, losers get eliminated, and someone can earn “immunity”. The one thing that I really liked, is that those “targeted for elimination” go to the “sandbox”. Joel didn’t give the details, but he said that they can redeem themselves and get back in the competition.
I always hate it when someone is really good, or hasn’t had a chance to show their talents, and they get eliminated the first episode. Or when someone gets stabbed in the back, and never has a chance for revenge.
The immunity that the contestants can earn is sponsored by “Hacker Safe“, which I thought was a really good idea, especially since it is a web only show.
Joel Comm is much more likable than Donald Trump. I don’t think that anyone took offense to any of his criticism.
