Superbowl - wow what a game...and thanks Hulu





Anybody who actually watched the game - and the terrific halftime show - had to admit this was one of the best SuperBowls ever. The first half ended with a bang and so did the end of the game. And The Boss commanded viewers to "put down your chicken wings" and watch his 12 minute show.

As always, there were many great commercials as well. Many TiVo fans - but not the sport fan variety - were actually using the FF function in reverse: fast forwarding past the game to watch the commercials. Ironically, one of the best commercials - and there were so many to choose from - was from on-line video firm Hulu. That is, you would go to their site to re-play high quality versions of the commercials. And if watching the commercials was not enough, the playback of the commercials was sponsored by Coke and others. Several on-line job hunting websites had ads as well reflecting some strength in that market as well as a sign of the times.

After all, "you're not going to turn of your television and computer at the same time"
