I got a tivo a couple years ago and it’s changed the way that I watch TV. the only thing I ever watch live is the Sharks, and previously I almost never watched anything on TV – now there’s a bunch of shows that I like to tape and watch. It’s kind of taken over the way that I think about lots of things. A couple weeks ago in the car I was on my way to work and listening to AM radio (AM 740, Traffic every 10 minutes) and they did some news clip that I kind of missed. Then I
looked at it and wanted to rewind and listen to it. I need a Tivo for my radio. THEN tonight, while I was watching the sharks game, I was watching the fire (our new house has a fireplace! RAWKS!) and I threw a log on (hehe, logon) and was sitting and thinking “Wow, that fire looks really good. I actually reached for the tivo remote to PAUSE THE FIRE so that Kelly could come see it. Then I caught myself and realized what I was doing. then, not 2 minutes later, I did the exact SAME THING! I’m losing it.
PS: There needs to be a grouping mechanism for tivo, like when you pick a program to record, you can tag it or put it in a folder type thing. THEN there needs to be a ‘shuffle’ – like TiVo Shuffle for that folder.
