I like Hulu, but does everyone need to be on it? What if Hulu is slow, has problems, etc. I'd like multiple sites. It's fine for them to be on Hulu if they have their own video site too (fox.com vs. hulu.com for the same videos on different servers).
ESPN360.com is available at no charge to fans who receive their high-speed internet connection from an ESPN360.com affiliated internet service provider. ESPN360.com is also available to fans that access the internet from U.S. college campuses and U.S. military bases.

Is there something else I am missing? I do not have its cable TV.
I remember back in the 90s, there was a DOS virus called Stealth or something. Back then, 3.5" disks autorun did not exist. However, if you access 3.5" disks infected, then the memory and HDD get infected. Uninfected writeable 3.5" disks would also get infected even if user only type A: and that's it. I don't seee how disabling autorun for today's devices would help.
Before I got broadband service, I had a dedicated phone line to be on dial-up (only 3 KB/sec even on 56k modems -- crappy phone lines here) for long time. EarthLink (ELN) said unlimited for $19.95/$21.95, but its TOS/AUP never said anything about every 24 hours straight there is a disconnection. I asked in public on their newsgroups/forums, why the disconnections. People talked about this and were annoyed. Even one support guy, said I should get a life. Umm, I am not always at the keyboard. I have to download and upload big files too (remember, 3 KB/sec)! Then, other members and I noticed later on that ELN added this to mention it. Recently, I noticed they disconnect dialup users who are on 12 hours straight. Sheesh.
Over the air (OTA) has been around forever. You could had done that long ago.:) I haven't had cable since the mid 80s (back when the transmitters were way too far).
It was in a college/university computer lab (not CS') with an old/. member from our college days. He showed me Linux (Red Hat? Slackware?) and telnet (no SSH yet). I fell in love with the text mode programs like Tin (still use it and test some builds for Urs, the maintainer). I also used Pine, SLiRP, TIA, FTP, etc. on a production machine for school's e-mail services on 14.4k - 56k (only up to 28.8k) dial-up (useful for text modes!).
I did not run Linux on my own computers until 486 DX2/66. Then, I got stuck with the Red Hat Linux v6.1(?)'s Disk Druid because I didn't know about disk partitioning and stuff. I was scared too. Finally, I got through it with a dual boot setup. Then, I didn't do much. Got bored and frustrated. Then, came v7.1(?) and loved it. Had an extra box for it to be run it for 227 days of uptime because no more Kernel updates and stuff. Then, came Debian which was even better and still use it today.
I noticed I like all computers and OS': Apple and its Mac OS X, PC with Windows, DOS, and Linux.
I wished I got to see the moon landing live in the old days. I was hoping it would happen for Mars, but at this rate many of us and I will be dead when a human finally lands on Mars. Building a base on Moon would be cool too since we already landed there in the past. Someone frakkin please get going to space exploration in person.

I am OK with legal immigrants, but not with illegally. If they want to come to U.S. to have a better life, then do it the legal ways.

What if we have to wait for a download, buffering, etc. in other tabs?

Dude, post some videos (not you in the shower though).
I know Adelphia used to have it before it went away. :(
Premium makes you pay for that? Yuck. I thought it was going to be free. And I don't care about baseball/softball. :)
I have TWC RR, and I get this:

I tried that in the past, and cable companies said that was confidential. :(
Hulu should spawn localized ones for other countries. Hulu could make $$$ with localized ads. and getting rights too.

http://archive.org/ still has copies of old GeoCities' areas I used to hang out. :)
No, get Chloe from 24. She can totally handle it.
Indiana Jones, is that you? :P
For now... It ain't over. I am sure it will be back later.
Come on, spell his right character name or his real name!
Is there a bigger one? It is making me sad (from CA). :P
I thought MB busted this myth.
Oh well, have fun with frustrated customers/clients who can't use your Web sites and your company losing money.
