Commons.TV (What is aprigliano doing?)

A while back, I posted my immediate thoughts on TVU and how I was going to run it through a packet filter to take a closer look as to what is going on behind the scenes. Well, from what I could tell there was nothing bad going on. TVU is good and not evil. Then I noticed that they have they put out broadcasting software for the public to use. Oh? O.K. I took a look at it. It is very beta, but they are working on it and it semes pretty stable (well, the part that transmits the stream is stable, the video view crashes on me - don't care - it does not interrupt the stream and I'm not watching the video.)

O.K. here is the point of all this. I've started a new TVU Channel called "Commons.TV" - channel 60752. I scour the web look for creative commons licensed material then post it. And since I make no money, that is a lot of material. You would be surprised as to what is out there and how good it can be. And I hope you are surprised.

If you would like to watch, either download the TVU application (Windows only) or go to this page on Viidoo (again Windows only, grrrr) and type in channel 60752 and give it a whirl.

The website Commons.TV is up and as soon as I get over some technical hurtles then I am going to give the site the attention it deserves.

Turn on, tune in and copyleft.
