It's been awhile since I've worked on my "things". Isn't it amazing how busy life is now? All of the social networking, email, web surfing, etc makes me feel even more that life is racing past me and I will never be able to take it all in - or even a fraction of it. I feel pressed to define my relationship to all of this input so it won't consume me. I still want time in my life to... I can finish the sentence with any number of things!
So, OK. I now have my own YouTube Channel. I 'searched' for Regions videos and happened to choose a "Take me to Regions" where Sharice mistakes Regions for a hotel. I have to admit it was humorous and entertaining! Now I need to find a video worthy of uploading to my blog. This could be a tough one! Check back to learn my choice!
Here it is! Susan Boyle on 'Britians Got Talent'. One reason I chose this video is because it was so amazing the first time I saw it. It's a true Cinderella story. But the primary reason was because I was familiar with it and didn't want to get sucked into the YouTube vortex! Yes, I've been there and as this looks like a rather lengthy "Thing" I thought I would excercise some time management initiative. Kudos, right?
I have not personally streamed video/TV content to my computer but I did watch TV shows my husband accessed through HULU while traveling overseas. I've added the cable needed to connect my computer to the TV to my shopping list. What is it called? I don't remember the article referring to it by a 'name'. They just said 'a cable'. What should I ask for? I am very concerned with the amount of time it might take to become really savy at this. It sounds simple but so often there are snags along the way and you end up in tech limbo.
I did subscribe to a podcast! I have to say I'm excited about this because it was simple and is something I think I will use often. I choose to subscribe to the podcast sermons from a church we visited on Sunday. The message was fabulous but it was the end of a series so now I can catch the first ones via podcast!
I think I spent well more than 2 hours on this thing. I'm finding that I have to limit myself or I could follow rabbit trails for hours!

Wow - you did a lot! Sorry we don't know the type of cable you need. Podcasts are a wonderful thing. They allow you to recieve information when you want it. We use it to listen to radio programs. You are right about YouTube. It is a vortex. (Confession - We love Hulu!)
