Cable Needs to Watch Out


This post is not really geared towards fashion at all, but it deserves mention on this blog. I did do a concentration in Intellectual Property & TECHNOLOGY. The tech geek does surface onces in a while.
That is because the lovely folks of Boxee have identified a viable technology and created some genius software to allow individuals to bypass cable television. The software allows you to hook your computer to your television in order to view episodes that are available on the internet. This is worthy of mention because episodes from television are becoming readily available on the internet. Whether it is Tess of the D'Ubervilles from PBS' Masterpiece Theatre, the latest episode of Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, or The Real Housewives of Atlanta, all of it is accessible through the internet. AND they are available without as many intrusive commercials. It truly does seem like the new TiVo right?
Check out the article that the New York Times did on Boxee here:
