I looked at some stuff on Youtube but as many of you know, finding good stuff on there is hard. It has Dailymotion and Youtube but not Vimeo. My first internet TV was my Panasonic TV. ![]() Emails popping in, tweets etc…yes full screen helps but it’s just never an enveloping feeling like when watching stuff on a TV. ![]() It needs my undivided attention and when I’m at my computer getting my attention is hard. When I am at my computer, yes I could have it on whilst doing other stuff, but that’s not fair as I mentioned. I get sent a lot of requests to watch stuff, and it’s tough finding the time. On my large flat screen TV…and you know what? It’s about 100 times better watching something on my TV than on my laptop. When I watch a movie, it’s an all in one thing. So if I have a spare half hour and am sitting on my sofa these days having a bite to eat or just chilling, do I turn on my Sky box and watch TV or do I actually watch something more useful with my time? Sure there are loads of films I can watch but I do not watch them in chunks. Now, how many times have you sat on your sofa flicking through dross on your TV but given it way longer than 20-30 seconds before switching over? I have lost many a half hour to stuff I would never plan to watch, simply because I am comfortable on my sofa and my boredom tolerance is a lot higher. Not fair on the filmmaker but it is a pretty standard thing to happen. Or most likely, if it doesn’t grab you within 20-30 seconds, you are onto something else or skimming it. Watch something at your laptop or desktop computer, and you end up having it in smaller windows whilst you multitask. Our attention spans have gotten pretty short – mine certainly has. ![]() I just love the service! This may come across as a bit of blogvertorial but it isn’t! I am not currently sponsored by Vimeo or affiliated with them.
