Interesting bit from Wired.com on the latest Apple-inspired i-music revolution as artists like Ingrid Michaelson (below) begin to realise the potential of the app store. (No, I have no idea who she is either, but it madde a cute pic for this post …)
If you’re a BBC fan but not resident in the UK, you’ll no doubt have been long frustrated at not being able to use the BBC’s brilliant iPlayer, which allows you to watch any BBC content from the last seven days as often as you want. Sure, there are complicated geeky ways of setting up proxy this and that but now My Private Network makes it really easy. It sets up a virtual private network tunnel that allows you not only unlimited access to iPlayer but also on-demand video and live TV content from other UK channels such as ITV, Channel Four, and Five. It costs about $8 a month but well worth it if you want to see good quality UK TV. It’s available for Windows, Mac and Linux and literally takes about 10 seconds to set up. You’ll never have to sit through those out of date BBC America re-runs again.
