Comcast compressing their HDTV streams and somebody noticed

Sunday, March 30th, 2008

You may find this funny, but no I don’t have comcast (charter here), nor do I have a tv that’s capable of hdtv output (yes, go ahead call me a luddite…) But… I’m starting to wonder if it’s even that big a deal. In a short time the cable carriers may make hd [...]

Friday, March 28th, 2008

I’m a big North Carolina Fan - have been for almost as long as I can remember. So, I was of course pleased to see cbs doing full coverage of the entire list of tournament games online. My first hesitation though is that so many online outlets give a proprietary windows only access [...]

Watch TV Online for Free - NCAA Tournament Coverage

Thursday, March 27th, 2008

I was really excited to see that CBS at their CBSSports.com page is allowing anyone to stream the NCAA Men’s Basketball tournament games for free.

It’s been about a week or so since I moved this site out of the averyjparker.com server space, but I did noticed a strange side-effect of the move for those of you viewing the RSS feed of the site through Google Reader. It essentially mixed the rss feed of this site and the averyjparker.com [...]

Podcasting With Wordpress

Thursday, March 6th, 2008

I don’t know if I’m quite ready to do a podcast on any of my sites yet, but I’ve been curious lately what it would take to make it happen. Yes, I know the first half is to get audio in a good format for the web. The zoom H4 records to wav [...]
