AI, Mobile, and Eveything Around the Cloud

You've likely read or heard about Hulu working on an iPhone app.  Well, it's a killer app if there is one.  While Apple might tolerate a Hulu app (it has allowed TV.com and a few others to offer apps that stream videos), ATT will never go for it.  ATT sucks bit time.  There, I said it.   Back to the subject at hand. Point your mobile browser here:   NBC Mobile .  You can watch many videos including full episodes.  It was a sweet discovery and I'm glad to be sharing it with you. For other mobile sites that offer videos for your iPhone or G1, go to  Onxo Mobile Tips .  

Hulu's developing an app for the iPhone and iPod Touch. This is according to Business Insider. This is more concrete than rumors because of what we're seeing being approved by Apple for the app store.

Sling submitted their app around the same time Skype did theirs and Skype was approved within days. I’m betting Sling will get their app r...

So, what does the future hold? A month down the line? Six months? A year from now? Frankly, both of these apps surprise me. Not the apps themselves but the fact that Apple allowed them to be released into the wild just blew me away. First, the TV.com app. CBS, by offering albeit limited quantities of full episodes of videos to be stream free to iPhone and iPod Touch users, therefore, potentially bypassing the iTunes stores for some of its offerings was "okayed" by Apple's store sentries. Recall not long ago, the biggest news was that Apple was rejecting ap...
