What this blog is about?

This blog is about streaming videos from web to TV. Most cable companies and telecommunication companies behave like monopolies. The prices are too steep and the content too steeped with advertisements.

If you have internet connection, most relevant information is available on web. Today any media company can't just live without providing content on the web. There is plethora of video content available on the web.

The great unbundling
The RSS, Atom, Podcasts, Videocasts are driving us in a world where in we have capability to subscribe and access only the content that interests us. We can subscribe to only feeds that interests us, we search and filter content which we are interested in. The technology has driven us into silos, where we create a wall around ourselves with only relevant contents and never get exposed to things not of our interest. The internet has segmented and nurtured the human behavior in unfathomable ways. But this unbundling has not yet peculated in video services in our living room. This is a blog about one individual's struggle to consolidate the information on how to do it.

Video Services
What we need is a tool that facilitates bringing these video services on the web together on your big screen. I will try to discuss the tools and technologies that can facilitate this. So keep tuned.
