Social PVRs from PARC

"Indeed, in many ways, Social TV will be similar to the Instant Messenger you already use on your computer. Only it will be more dynamic: Social TV software, located on a device like TiVo or even your TV set, might notice that your and your buddy’s yacking has gone well past the commercial break. The software would conclude that you are no longer watching the show and, perhaps, pause the program until you are ready to resume, says Nic Ducheneaut, member of PARC research staff."

Social Software for Set-Top boxes...


Imagine a buddy-list on your television that you could bring onto your screen with the merest tap of a 'friends' key on your remote control. The buddy list would be the first stage of an interface that would let you add and remove friends, and see what your friends are watching in real-time - whether they be watching live television or something stored on their PVRs. Adding friends would be simple - you could enter letters on screen using your remote, or browse your existing friends' contact lists.

Two computers? Two iTunes libraries? No problem!


If you’re anything like we are, you’ve got umpteen music files spread willy-nilly across computers and platforms, and all too often the song you want to hear doesn’t live on the machine you happen to be closest to. Enter syncOtunes, an application built just for types like us, that will help you create one iTunes library to rule them all. It works by comparing the two libraries across your home network and mirroring the missing files from each system to the other. Then, just import the folder of merged tracks into iTunes via an AppleScript that will automagically trash any errant duplicates. Originally developed for the Mac, version 0.95 introduces a beta version for Windows. Oh — did we mention it’s free?
