Clicker.com is a free online search engine that indexes TV and movies on the Web.
On this week's All Tech Considered, we return to a subject we first discussed in January: the state of TV on the Web and watching Internet content on your HDTV.
Over the last week, there's been a string of announcements, including the launch of search engine Clicker.com, a piece of hardware due out from Boxee, YouTube's introduction of 1080p-quality Web video and Dell's new Zino HD PC, which seems squarely aimed at living room Web viewing.
A few more bits related to our piece:
- TV Guide also has a service, My DVR for keeping track of online episodes of your favorite shows. TV critic Dale Roe tipped me off to the site.
- Will sites like Hulu keep the free ride going forever? It's not likely. Also: get ready for dual revenue streams and internal turf wars over Hulu ad rates.
- Internet-enabled TVs were the talk of January's Consumer Electronics Show, but we're just starting to see them roll into showrooms.
- One of many tutorials on how to hook up your computer to a television set.
- Rumors of an iTunes all-you-can-eat TV subscription service.
