RSS TV

So, if you can read your news the second it is posted while sipping your coffee in the morning before work, why not watch it. Heck, why not watch the new episode of Family Guy while your at it. In fact…i want to watch every show i missed this whole quarter because i was too busy studding. Well, im in luck and so are you. RSS feeds have made they’re way to broadcasting and in a big way.

If you own a mac, you in luck because im going to hook you up. First you need a video RSS aggrogater(sp).  A program called Democracy is now called Miro and you can find it here:

Nxt you need some feeds, and to do that you need to go to a site that has all your convient RSS video feed listings. To do so, go here:

Now your ready to go…but not before you get a little more insight into how this works. If you know anything about BitTorrents, you know it is the new way to download programs and music. The way a BitTorrent works is, you select a file to download, and that file is found amongst many different users from all over. The file is then cut into a % and download from all users online who current house the file. This makes downloading the file faster, and uses less of the host(s) bandwidth. Miro works the same way, it download the file you are watching, from multiple users.

Now your on your way to watching all your favorite programs for free from your laptop….who needs cable now. Oh, and remeber…if it doesn’t work, you’ve always got www.tv-links.co.uk !!
