IBNLive : Live Video Feeds!!!

IBNLive has a live video news feed thats comes in two options Low Res and High Res. If you are on a broadband the service is really good.

But what really takes the cake is that ibnlive is not charging you for this live video. Its absolutely free and is as good as watching the channel itself.

Not sure if this is intended to remain this way or its just an attempt to grab some eyeballs from sites like ndtv.com etc.

In fact while i was at it, just realised the number of sites offering video services.

I could name a few on the fly like google videos, youtube, videosift, Break. Im sure a search on google will get you plenty more. There are plenty of sites being built around these services. For example VideoDL is an excellent site that lets you download videos from google videos, youtube and break.

And the news is, that Amazon will be joining the fray soon with its unbox service. This would be a service based on windows media player and DRM, letting you purchase or rent videos from its site. The service will ofcourse need to compete with the likes of iTunes and indirectly with services like netflix and blockbuster.

Three weeks of solitude

The last few weeks in Brussels have been amazing. I have had nothing to do on the weekends. No work!!! no social engagements and no phone calls. Phew!!! Dont i sound like a busy man???
.. well i've been really busy doing nothing much in particular.
So i've been sleeping, watching TV and browsing the net in peace. The only work!!! i have to do is the laundry. But over the last 3 weeks, even this process has been audited and tuned, to maximize efficiency and minimise time and effort. Phew!! i can justify that management degree now..

So i've also had the time to catch up with whats been happening around me. There's plenty as usual. Almost overwhelming infact to digest all at once. But the good thing is i have started digging in.

Just noticed a few weeks back, that google has added their services to the top of your gmail account. Its a pretty kewl idea especially if they can integrate all their services and provide access to all of these through one's mail account. But they have indeed taken the right step forward yet again.

Hope to see u guys here more often now.

Cheerio..
