Watching free television on line has occupied much of my time lately.
It's also vacation time for local school kids. There's a daily crowd around my pool and at the PlayStation. It's been so busy, I had to establish "NO VISITOR" days, just to have some quiet time.
What's taken up most of my time is a new GOOGLE service in their PICASA software.
Picasa (photo album) now has facial recognition.
I have spent countless hours adding names to all those faces.
I'm really horrible at remembering names. Thousands of pictures, lots of memories.
More about Television online
I've been avoiding pay services mostly because they don't tell you what you get before you pay. They offer thousands of stations, beyond that they are not very specific. I suspect lots of garbage.
There's plenty of free stuff.
Recently installed Rocket Torrents toolbar onto my web browser.
It offers multiple live TV services from the US, UK, Germany, Holland, Spain and Italy. Rocket Torrents also has plenty of movies that can be downloaded free.
To view live TV you must have a high speed connection
When you install new software BEWARE !
Most newly added software will install into your start-up folder. It slows down your computer and takes up memory. Empty out your start-up folder as much as possible. The only software in mine is virus and system maintenance software. Any other software I start as needed.
As most of you know I have switched my e-mail to gmail some time ago. They offer free services which other providers charge for. They also offer a multitude of other services.
I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of GOOGLE WAVE now in beta testing.
If you are interested in a free gmail account, drop me a note luanghans@gmail.com, I'll send you an invite.
