The YBOT Boys chat about the latest news in the world of technology and the internet in their fun tech series Your Brain on Tech. Its good humor and short five-minute format is very appealing, but the sporadic episodes are a bit disappointing. While the creators boast weekly episodes, we've been waiting since the end of July for the next one. The world of technology moves far too fast for that!

Americans Andrew Hawkins and Hiroki Matsuuchi deal with the culture shock of their new Japanese homes through their lighthearted news channel Bad Communication. While the lads look at the news from Japan, it's not really a program designed to inform. Instead it's there to illicit a few laughs, and the natural chemistry between the hosts ensures it does this week after week.

If you believe the Bollywood movies, India is a colorful and cheery place where people sing and dance in the street. The team from Video Volunteers tells a very different story with their local news channel IndiaUnheard. As its name suggests the webseries puts cameras into the hands of marginalized people and encourages them to reveal the true India.
