Cranky Geeks with iPhone 3G and more...

I made another appearance on Cranky Geeks in the hot (yeah right) July summer of San Francisco, on episode 125. We spoke about the iPhone and its revolutionary app store; which is the real story of the 3G iPhone, not the 3G which brings talk time from 10 hours to 5 hours. The worlds oldest blogger at 108 years old (someone else typed for her) passed away and newsgroup sites are having a problem with porn images.

But that's enough about the episode, click here to watch it then click the iPhone image in the next window!

Because boxee is a new type of software program, unlike traditional software as it utilizes a 10-foot user interface like a TiVo but with social capabilities, I put together a 4 and a half minute walk-through video. This shows you how navigate through the interface (by the way, we launched the Linux version today at boxee.tv!) You don't use a mouse with boxee, just your keyboard if you are on a laptop, or remote control (the Apple remote or Media Center version on Windows boxes works great) to navigate around. This makes things much easier than "pointing and clicking" from across the room and as a bonus, it gets rid of that annoying mouse arrow on top of your media. This software is best used is when you connect a computer to your wide-screen TV and enjoy media from your couch!

Check out the video below to see how to get the most out of boxee. Now this isn't the "teaser video" as to why you would want to use boxee, as that is coming later... This is something for our alpha users to view while they are downloading the application, to get a little more educated on how to use it once installed...
