<p>The future is here (again) and for once it didn't come from California, which can only bring us men marrying men these days, harumph! ...just kidding! As soon as I get my airplane suit I'm jetting out west and coming back with a husband. For maximum gayness, we'll be holding hands as we swoop back over the Rockies.</p>

“I’d say that maybe 3 out of 10 nights of numbering,we have some success,” Fahad explained.

<p>“You mean that 3 out of 10 nights you get a girl to talk to you?” I asked.</p>

<p>“No, no,” Fahad laughed. “Maybe 3 out of 10 nights we get one phone number. Getting a girl to actually talk to you on the phone is much rarer. But it happens, so we’re always hoping.” <br />

<p>The site <a href="http://www.hulu.com/">Hulu</a>, just out of Beta, offers the concept you've been waiting for. A free, centralized, high quality dumping ground (& viewing area) for current TV shows (old bits and some movies). They have some kinks to work out, but I'm digging it. </p>

<p>As you may have noted, YouTube has become too unspecialised to even confront it. And on Hulu, sound and image quality are great.</p>

<p>The name is not very clever - Sort of, let's put "TiVo" and "YouTube" in a blender and see what we get!<br />
