How about... Three Things Friday?

What I'm excited about:

1) Consistent 70 degree (yet rainy) weather is coming all next week. Seventy. Hellz yes.

2) This is my 400th blog post (go ahead, count them). Expect my next celebration when I hit 500 later this year.

3) Orb. This is something I've just discovered yesterday, but it has already made me extremely excited about its potential.

Here is the jist of Orb: a server program is installed on your home computer and is directed to all of your media files, which may include music, video, pictures, or documents. File format support is very broad, and thus far everything I've thrown at it has worked (iTunes FairPlay, however, does not work to the best of my knowledge).

From any web-connected PC, by pointing a browser (I've tested with IE and Firefox; thumbs up so far) to http://mycast.orb.com and entering your user ID, you can gain access to all the media and document files that you shared from your home PC. For me, this means that over 21 GB of music, movies, music videos, and access to all my personal Word and Excel documents is available from any PC on campus...

I find this amazing, and intend to use it regularly. If you find yourself on the road quite a bit, are connected, and want very easy access to your media files, I highly recommend Orb as the middle man for now. The service is thus-far free, displays minimal advertising, and uses a fairly modern AJAX web browswer interface for the "client" PC that is being streamed to.

Out.
