As many of my friends know, I’m a big fan of “Morning Joe”, a politically based show on MSNBC, starting at 5 a.m. local time.
If you’ve watched it, it’s conversation based, with people sitting around a table, or checking in on monitors throughout the show. People move in an out. And, mostly, people have time to present a point of view. It’s not a sound bite show
.
Well, I decided I liked it so much, I bought a Slingbox so I could watch it while I traveled. A Slingbox is a device that puts your cable TV on the internet by some gizmo box, allowing you to watch your TV shows on your computer. It’s pretty slick.
But, that wasn’t enough, so I decided to get an application (app) for my phone so I could watch my TV shows at the airport, and other areas where pulling out a computer wouldn’t be practical.
Of course, my office is about a two hour drive from my home, and that drive hits right, smack dab in the middle of “Morning Joe”. So, I was thinking I’d like to have “Morning Joe” on while I drive, so I bought a car with Bluetooth technology.
So, now I’ve got “Morning Joe” on my cable, streaming through the internet, to my cell phone, and through the speakers of my car via Bluetooth.
How cool is that?
