DID YOU KNOW?DID YOU KNOW?

Some of the best HD is FREE

Well, you’ll likely need to buy an antenna, but once it’s hooked up, you’ll discover that the picture quality of over-the-air HD is amazing. Sure, it’s mostly local channels, but hey, free is free.

You can watch hoops at work

Enjoy the college basketball tournament from the (dis)comfort of your cube. Here’s a link to get FREE, live streaming of all the games on your computer. Just remember, keep one eye on the ball and the other on the location of your boss.

Online news beats paper news

When it comes to getting your news, the Interwebs are more popular than paper, now. Or radio. But TV still reigns supreme. And what’s the number one news topic across the board? Click here to find out.

Pop culture guilt can be cured

It’s just like carbon trading: Every hour spent watching PBS earns you the right to watch one episode of Jersey Shore. It’s a scientifrical fact, bro. Now let’s hit the hot tub.

Your HDTV can go wireless

Rocketfish makes an adapter that can wirelessly send HD signals up to 32-7/8’. (They tried SO HARD for that extra 1/8-inch.) Now you can mount your TV far away from your Blu-ray Player. (Far = 32-7/8’)

The Internet has a speedometer

Speed matters when downloading movies on your Internet connectable TV. Geek Squad recommends at least 1.5 Mbps for standard def video and 4 Mbps for HD. Don’t know your Mbps from your NSFWs? Here’s a free speed test.

YouTube began with elephants

The first video ever posted on YouTube starred two elephants and a German. "Me at the zoo" was uploaded on April 23rd, 2005 by Jawed Karim, one of the site’s founders. The video lasts only 19 seconds.

You can play Sudoku on your TV

All you need is a love of integers and an Internet connectable TV that can access Yahoo! Widgets. Remember, that’s Sudoku (the puzzle game), not Sodoku (the infection from rats).

Soon we’ll all have bionic eyes

At least that’s what the founder and Chief Inspector of the Geek Squad thinks. Don’t believe us? Click here. Do believe us? Still click here.
