Canadian television for free, online.

With most major networks putting up their programming online, no one really needs to pay for overpriced cable television (specially considering you can't even choose your own channels for some stupid suck-you-for-all-your-money type reason). Pretty much every major television network in the USA have their entire programming line up for free streaming - however they're usually locked based on location. But Canadian networks are starting to follow this trend. Now you can get pretty much every Canadian based show, streamed over the internet, for free. Not only is it free, but usually includes very minimal commercials (usually only a single 30-second-commercial in place of the normal 2-minute-commercials on regular Television).

So here's the (small) list of networks that offer their television line ups online (for free):
- CBC
- CTV
- CityTV
- Comedy Network
- Showcase
- GlobalTV
- Discovery
- MuchMusic
- MTV Canada
- SpikeTV

So there you have it! I tried to stick with Canadian networks. Some American (or international for that matter) may also be available to us Canadians, however the market is constantly changing with copyright claims and international market rights. At least we can say for certain as long as our Canadian networks exist they will provide us with these services. So please send it any more if you have it and use these resources.

I actually still use this place.

I know I haven't posted in forever. But I am in fact making progress on the internets. However I do need to post now in order to test a few things I've been working on so I've decided to continue to not actually say anything by posting about my social network of items.

So lets begin.

First and foremost we obviously have this place. Which is dandy. Also notice Facebook, Twitter, and my Google Reader stream where I post wonderful interesting news I find. Flickr is for all my photography stuff I do (when I find time) and you can see my photo stream on my profile page (along with the rest of these links). There's also that big Xbox Live badge for my Live Profile which I believe you need to sign in to your Live/MSN passport account to view.

And that is it.

welcome.

So this is this. My internet web site. Serious Business. Right now it's just in form of Blogger, nothing amazing but hey it's simple and easy to start with. And since all I really want to do is rant about shit I read on the internet and my general life, hey why not.

So I don't really have much to say here right now, I still have lots of things to think about and work out, but none the less, here it all is!
