ThePirateBay might be blocked in the US

I was looking around on Google and thought I just for giggles check out the Piratebay complaints. I tried going to the site and here's what Popups:

notauthorized

[ad#ad2-right]I tried on OpenVPN and my Local ISP, It keeps saying that. I then tried on my Cricket Modem and it tells me the connection has been interrupted, like something stops the connection in the first place. I can ping it and I can Tracert the Site but I can't even view it. I would like to know if Anyone else is having this problem also. Although I've not checked Thepiratebay.org complaints for quite some time because I've been so busy with my website. If you want to watch your favorite shows check out these sites like Hulu, CBS, NBC, ABC, ABC FAMILY and TNT.TV for free. I am just curious as to what happened and does this have anything to do with Net Neutrality?   Anyway I wanted to talk about this and see what people are saying.  Anyone know what is going on?  Let's talk about this and help everyone by saying what you know.   I don't know if Thepiratebay.org is down but I do wonder if someone is preventing people from getting to the website.   I'll update when I have more information.

CBS Confirms the Axe of Layoffs for CNET

CBS throws the gauntlet and says in a statement :


CBS Interactive continues its integration process, which now calls for the further combination of several portions of the division into unified groups oriented around similar content. This important move allows us to better align our premium content for our audiences and our advertisers, and also results in reduction in certain areas that are now duplicated in the new organization structure. We believe these moves are necessary to continue building CBS Interactive into the most creative, most efficient, most profitable and fastest growing Internet company in the media business.”


[ad#ad2-right]Now I can Only guess as to what they will re-organized but if it is anything like Jeff Gerstmann and how we heard people might resign over that little fiasco. I'd give the likely hood of several people from Gamespot and Probably even more people from C-NET. I don't know who they will lay off but I do know they are going to re-organization. You will probably have to pay for content from them in one way or the other. This is somewhat not un-expected due to the Economic Stress we are currently in and Probably will be for some time.


If I hear what happens I'll will update my post and all.  If you want to check out the other lay offs in the technology industry please feel free and click here.   I am sure to have more in the coming months.   Time is the only constant and will always be moving forward.

HD Ware in Downloads!

Although, I think HD is the same thing as Blu-ray.  Most people now a days are looking into the the download section instead of having a DVD.  So here is what I think they missed.  Some things you might be missing is that Hulu has decided to take on the cause and start publishing the HD videos.

Having seen, the devastation of the format war. Engadget talked about this same little thing.   Either way I think we only begun to see the relevance and cost of downloading.  We've got two different formats trying to get on the bandwidth of your local ISP.  Here's where it get hard.  Which of the two would you rather download, a 8 gig or a 20 gig file.  Then you have to think of how much time it will take to download the file so you could watch it.

As you can see it gets so hard to download all these types of files when you could stream it.  Yes you could download it but downloading it takes time.  Why not watch it in relatively short time, like 10 minutes or so!! So I thought I throw out a few ideas on stream this HD without having to download it.

Hulu




As with Anyhting else, You can have standard definition videos and High Def Videos come from this little site.  It takes so little time going to site that you to can find some really good videos at this.  This show That I used as an example.


Hulu HD


CBS




Having been using CBS for all my standard def and high def experiences.  I've found that this site is also just as good as Hulu.  Although I think Hulu is the best there is, this is definitely second on my list!!





NBC




NBC has so many shows coming to there fall line up, I actually have them on my list also for third.  Although they will never compete with Hulu due to the fact they have server and lag issues they have been really nice to go to when I need to find a program that I've missed or wanted to watch.


ABC Family


ABC Family has so many good shows on that are original and also very nice to watch.  Most of these others that I've listed. The one that I like is:


KyleXY



Fancast


This is the the last one.  It's called fancast.  They actually have like a variety of networks linked into this little site.  They have NBC, CBS, and Hulu which is really good.  I like to go here to find some of the ones that others don't have.  Let me show you one  of them that you can only watch at fancast.


Farscape



I am sure there are others that you can only watch there on Fancast but that one is the one that I've found that I can only watch there.  You can even watch trailers there to.  If you know something that I've missed please leave a comment.  I want to find out more free streaming sites.

CBS buys tech news website CNET

CBS buys tech news website CNET.jpg

Television company CBS has agreed to buy technology news and entertainment website CNET for about $1.75bn (£900m).

CBS said that the purchase of CNET, which owns sites such as ZDNet and Gamespot, would help to boost its online presence.

CBS has offered $11.50 a share in cash, which is 45% more than CNET's closing price on Wednesday.

The companies said the combined group would have "significant additional exposure" to online advertising.

The deal will make CBS "one of the 10 most popular Internet companies in the United States", with 54 million US users and 200 million worldwide, CBS said in a statement.

The deal is subject to approval by regulators and CNET shareholders.

Other CNET sites include News.com, TV.com, Mp3.com and MySimon.

CBS will combine them with its own websites such as CBSSports.com and CBSNews.com.

Well that is a surprise! Is anyone a little happy a big name bought CNET? I am wondering if they will start putting Cnet on the TV or are they going to do something different. I hope it comes out to be a much needed improvement.
