CBS on Joost

Posted in life at 5:48 am by mridley

This may not be news for anyone else (see these old annoucements that I missed here and here), but I just read in this Washington Post article that CBS has some of their shows available on Joost. I’ve been a Joost beta user for some time (earlier review), but initially I felt that their available programming was rather lackluster which lead me not to use the service much. Also their earlier clients were incredibly slow on my computer. The latest version of the Joost beta software has gotten a lot snappier and now that they have content I might actually watch I’m a lot more interested. I have been catching up on their series Moonlight (which really seems a lot like Forever Knight) and while I’m not sold on the show, the viewing experience is very workable.

    Let me start by apologizing for the "comment spam", but I'm trying to contact multiple friends (including you) and I don't have your most recent email address.

    As you might have realized, my "old" webserver (www.innospyre.com) died a hard death. The datacenter it was housed in (Sterling, VA) had issues a few months ago. Last Friday, the server died a hard death without any recent or complete backups. I was pissed, since I lost over 300MB of pictures, blogs, and data. Nearly 3 years of hard work is gone!

    I've since switched webhosting companies. I now have the premium plan with Bluehost, providing me Linux/Apache/Tomcat/SSH/MySQL/PostgreSQL/SMTP/FTP/HTTP/300GB HD/3Gbps in a 2-year contract. I've already written a cron job to back it up weekly to my SunBlade at home, which I will in-turn backup to DVD.

    Here's my new webserver and contact information:
    Lathe of Dreams (www.latheofdreams.com)
    ken.foreman@latheofdreams.com

    Again, sorry for "comment spam". I'll add you to my website under "Friends Link" this week. If you could please update your bookmarks and website links to my site, I'd appreciate it.

    - Ken
