Zeus of the ‘NetReviews of the Coolest Sites on the Net

If you love watching animals doing funny or silly things, or crazy tricks, this YouTube-esque site is the place to go.  Showing only pet videos, PetTube has something for all of the pet lovers of the world.  The site is pretty self-explanatory with the various categories running along the top.  Some of the Sub Categories include ‘Most Recent’, ‘Most Viewed’, and ‘Top Rated’.  This site is unique compared to the many other video sites out there on the web in that they host all of the videos themselves (just like YouTube).  So since people love their pets I thought this would be a nice niche site to share where you can not only watch funny videos but can let your own little scruffy indulge in his fifteen minutes too.

If you never thought it was possible, Hulu.com is out to prove you wrong. With hundreds of commercial free TV shows from networks such as NBC and Comedy Central, as well as hundreds of full length movies, Hulu is set to challenge YouTube’s reign as online video king.

A very modern looking and easy to use site, Hulu was launched in March 2008 as a joint venture between NBC Universal and News Corp. That backing gives the site a competitive advantage over most other online video sites that have run into legal issues by displaying copyrighted material. Hulu shows uninterrupted ad-supported programs including such TV shows as Saturday Night Live, and Jon Stewart’s The Daily Show.

There are also thousands of movie titles to choose from on Hulu, although only about 200 or so full length movies to date, which include such box office hits as: Men in Black, Jerry Maguire, and The Fifth Element, to more recent hits like, Underworld: Evolution and When a Stranger Calls. The only caveat being, before you can watch any movie, you have to first create an account (which takes all of about 5 seconds).

This free to use site is poised for rapid growth and is sure to be bookmarked by the thousands (although hulu.com is pretty easy to remember). Hulu is just one more option that brings us a step closer towards the inevitable decline of cable and satellite TV. With Hulu leading the way, the future of watching TV shows, movies, and video clips online looks much brighter.
