Ditching cable television.

This article hits right at home, it's about dropping cable television and using hdmi cables to connect to your television sets to stream videos, as well as using netflix hulu and others to watch cable series through these services.   I can relate to this article as I got rid of my cable this year because of the cost, they were showing the same movies and  programs each month. I was not worth it and I'm trying to get use to it after years of cable television.

These shutter shades are being developed to assist people with computer coding, these are developed in england, and are made of curcuit board and led, one can view text and watch videos and view moving images. This come in a kit called bright eyes.This is pretty cool, I would be uneasy with wearing these because I would be afraid to have the led lights so close to my eyes.   Pretty neat.
