Zune.net Podcast Directory Goes Web Based … Fascinating

Tuesday, March 3 Paul Colligan

So, quietly, the Zune.net Podcast Directory went web based (or at least has a web-based option). I wish I could tell you I got this content through some executive briefing that gives me hope for the future but … I read about this change in the Zune Insider as a sub-point of content (relating to…Read More »

Boxee.TV – 7 Things I’d Change

Tuesday, November 11 Paul Colligan

I am a HUGE fan of Boxee.TV right now. It has changed the face of my home entertainment center and my strategy for 2009 in some pretty major ways, but that isn’t what I want to talk about here. As I mentioned in the last Blog post, I bought a new MacBook Pro yesterday (and…Read More »

My Roku Box Obsession

A Cautionary Tale From Revision3

Thursday, May 29 Paul Colligan

Before you go any further, read this post from Jim Louderback from Revision3 on how he spent his weekend. There is no “simple” way to spin this – “new media” was attacked by an “old media” guardian. A very sloppy guardian none the less, but, as they say, consider the source. There is a battle…Read More »
