SHOW #030 - INTERNET FOCUS: Introducing Hulu.com

In this episode of NerdBoyTV, Ryan Yee shares articles about drowning in a digital sea of content, high-definition videoclips on YouTube, a review of Guitar Hero III for the Nintendo DS coming this summer, and Ben Patterson's review of the new Hulu.com video website. Ryan also takes you on a quick tour of Hulu.




Drowning in a digital sea of content - Gadgets- msnbc.com: "When Western Digital Corp., which makes storage devices, released its My DVR Expander last fall, videophiles and video files breathed a sigh of relief. The device takes away the onus of having to erase and make room on overburdened digital video recorders, such as TiVo and other brands, that faithfully fill up 80- to 250-gigabyte hard drives with television programming."


YouTube videos now in higher quality, hack not required : Gina Hughes : Yahoo! Tech: "Last week I told you about a 'hack' that would allow you to watch high-resolution videos on YouTube. Well, you can scratch that because YouTube has finally announced all users have the option of watching some videos in higher quality."


Guitar Hero hits handhelds for first time - Guitar Hero On Tour - Yahoo! Games: "With over 64 million Nintendo DS owners in the world and a monster music game franchise like Guitar Hero (over 14 million games sold in the U.S.), it's no wonder Activision is giving living room rockers a chance to take their show on the road. Available this summer, Guitar Hero: On Tour brings the series' fret-burning fun exclusively to Nintendo portable game system."


Hulu: All-you-can-eat TV shows, movies - and ads : Ben Patterson : Yahoo! Tech: "After several months in private beta, Hulu-a portal to hundreds of free, streaming TV shows and scores of movies-is finally open to the public. But while you can watch and even embed clips from shows to your heart's content, you'll have to deal with ads aplenty."
