Revision3 Covers CES 2010

January 6th, 2010 at 11:53 by Ron Richards in Shows

Technology enthusiasts always look forward to the new year because that means it’s time for the biggest extravaganza of all things tech, the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, affectionately known as CES. Computers, home theater equipment, gadgets, you name it, it’s at CES waiting to be ooh’d and aah’d at by tech geeks around the world.

Of course Revision3 is your place for coverage of the latest and greatest tech, and just like last year, we’ve headed to Las Vegas to bring you all the great product reviews and previews and updates from the show floor. Tekzilla, HD Nation and Hak5 will be there in full force as the CES main event gets underway. We don’t want you to miss a single moment of the action so we’re going to be releasing videos throughout the rest of the week from Wednesday, January 6 to Saturday, January 9. Tune into revision3.com/ces to watch all the videos! And don’t forget to check out Tekzilla, HD Nation and Hak5 next week as they come back with full episodes of their CES coverage.

Our CES coverage is being brought to you by Roku, the easiest way to watch Revision3 shows, Netflix movies, and more on your TV. Go to revision3.com/roku to try one risk free for 30 days.

And a big thank you to our friends at NBC Universal, whom we’ve teamed up again this year at CES to shoot from their booth. Be sure to check out all their CES happenings a nbcuatces.com

We hope everyone at CES has a great time, and for those of you who can’t be in Vegas, we hope you enjoy our coverage of the massive amounts of tech products out there. Be sure to tell your friends, tweet about it and spread the word that the best CES coverage is here at Revision3!

Then later at 9:00 we’ll be for the first time experiencing Bar Golf, a VT tradition that the entire Hak5 gang would love to see you at.

Guess Who’s got an App on Boxee? Revision3!

August 26th, 2009 at 11:14 by Ron Richards in Announcements

As you know, one of our mottos here at Revision3 is “Anywhere, Anytime, Any Device, Any Application” and that’s evidenced by how we bend over backwards to make our content available on whatever platform you want to watch it on, be it iTunes, YouTube or TIVO. One of those platforms that were huge fans of is Boxee. If you haven’t heard about Boxee yet, you definitely should as it’s quickly becoming one of the coolest pieces of software for watching video around.

Basically, it’s a way to enjoy the best of Internet Television on your computer or television. Boxee is the first “social” media center, whose free, downloadable software is changing the way we experience home entertainment. On a computer or connected to an HDTV, boxee allows you a simple way to bring all their entertainment into one place including personal movies, TV shows, music and photos, as well as streaming content from websites like Netflix, MLB.TV, Comedy Central, Pandora, Last.fm, and flickr. You can also share information about what you’re watching so friends can enjoy it too through legal sources online. It’s pretty darn cool and I’ve been using it for the majority of my Internet TV watching.

So, when the gang over at Boxee called us up and offered to create a Revision3 app for Boxee, we jumped at the opportunity! Any chance to make it easy for you, our audience, to watch Revision3 on your big screen TV (or any size, really) is definitely something we want to provide. Avner Ronan, Boxee’s CEO said, “”From Tekzilla to the Digg Reel to Co-Op, HD Nation, and Hak5 – Rev3 makes great shows that are available around the globe, on demand. They’re a great fit for Boxee, and we’re excited about the new interface we’ve created with them to encourage more people to watch Rev3 on their big screen.” Avner’s a great guy and so nice of him to say such kind words about Revision3!

If you’re looking for a new and cool way to watch Revision3, we strongly suggest you check out Boxee and install the Revision3 app. I can’t stop playing with it, it’s so cool. Just hook up your media center PC or your laptop to your TV, load up Revision3 on Boxee and then you’re on your way to hours of Revision3 fueled entertainment!

So head over to Boxee’s website, download the client and check it out for yourself.

Here’s what the Revision3 App on Boxee looks like:

Imagine browsing Revision3 with your remote control on your couch! Not bad, eh?

Huge thanks to our friends over at Boxee for putting the app together and helping us make it easier and better for you to watch Revision3 on Boxee!

Let us know what you think of the Revision3 app on Boxee!
