Kevin Rose

An American Internet entrepreneur who co-founded Revision3, Digg, Pownce, and Milk


He also served as production assistant and temporary co-host at TechTV's The Screen Savers.

Television
Rose was hired as a production assistant for The Screen Savers. He began appearing on-air, most notably in "Dark Tip" segments, and on Unscrewed with Martin Sargent where he provided information on developing computing activities. He became a regular co-host when Leo Laporte left TechTV on March 31, 2004. On March 25, 2004, Comcast's G4 gaming channel announced a merger with TechTV which resulted in a round of layoffs. Rose moved to Los Angeles to stay with G4. On May 22, 2005, Rose was laid off from G4 and went on to create Revision3 producing podcasts.

Podcasting
Rose began podcasting on July 24, 2003, with the release of the first episode of thebroken while he was still working on The Screen Savers at TechTV. Rose founded Revision3 in Los Angeles, California with Jay Adelson and David Prager in April 2005. On July 1, 2005, Rose and Alex Albrecht started the weekly podcast, Diggnation, which summarizes top stories submitted by Digg users.

Digg
In 2004, Rose, Owen Byrne, Ron Gorodetzky, and Jay Adelson formed Digg, a technology news website. The website was publicly launched on December 5, 2004. On September 1, 2010, Rose was replaced as CEO by Matt Williams, a former general manager of consumer payments at Amazon. On March 18, 2011, Rose resigned from his position at Digg.

Pownce
On June 27, 2007, Rose launched a micro-blogging site named Pownce which was closed down in less than a year.

Milk
In April 2011, the technology blog TechCrunch reported on the funding of "Milk".
