Boulders Internet TV News & Newspaper
This is Boulder Channel 1s news channel and newspaper with local news stories posted through out the day. We have TV news casts and community feature stories. All local All Boulder. Ron Baird News editor; Dan Culberson movies; Bill Allen, housing market and business. TV news stories by Jenn Conner and Heather Loser. Friday city news feature from Channel 8 and more from Jann Scott.
We also have separate video with print stories posted. But rather than thinking of us as a bunch of independent bloggers, we are not. We operate as a traditional news organization with both TV news and a newspaper all right here. Having said that, we will on occasion, post blogs that are news worthy to Boulder. We serve Boulder exclusively and have been since 1999 when we posted our first TV news cast on Tripod using University of Colorado servers.
In 1997 we live stream cast one of the first weekly TV shows in the world from CATV 54 at the Dairy center for performing arts. In 2005 we moved all of our streams to Boulder channel 1. In 2006 we launched The world Channel 1 networks building TV channel in every city in the world. In 2009 we launched Channel One Networks. 2010 we began the arduous process of moving all 100,000 plus pages to word press. And now in 2011 we are launching Boulder channel 1 into a new updated site. So keep looking for changes. If you are interested in our progress you can subscribe to a daily news feed over on the left hand side.
’30-year Mortgage Rates Fall Below 4% for the First Time’

These drastic savings are why NOW is the most affordable homes have ever been. If you look at it this way, for every 1% drop in interest rates, it will decrease your monthly payment by almost 10%. Average that 10% drop over 30 years and that’s a substantial savings. Take the example above. If you bought a home for $300,000, you would most likely put $50,000 or more down on the house, leaving a $250,000 mortgage. If you could like in todays rate over the previous 4.6% your savings in payment over the 30 year life of your mortgage would total nearly $35,000.
If you have been thinking about buying a home or re-financing, I would like to hear from the public how the low mortgage rates have affected you. Comments?
