The Transition from Cable to Internet TV

In about a week I will be moving up to Boston.  For the first time one of the calls I will not be making during this transition is to set up cable service.  We have decided to forgo paying for cable and just watch selected shows via the Internet.  Nowadays most prime-time shows are available within 24-48 hours on the major network sites.  There are also a bunch of other websites out there that stream TV content such as Hulu and Joost.  Sure, I won't be able to watch all of the shows I like to watch now but that's ok.

What I’ve Been Reading Lately

One of the things I love most about traveling is that it gives me a chance to read.  I love to read but don't take the time to do so when I'm at home but there are A LOT of books that I want to get through.  While traveling for CES last week I had the chance to read a few books.
