Do you Hulu?

It seems that Hulu is taking over as the newest internet brain child. Following behind the many new entertainment websites. Each of the new sites brings something new to the internet such as Youtube letting everyone share viral videos with the whole world. Hulu, however is the first to step into the realm of TV. I have been using hulu for a very long time now and it is a wonderful thing. The most significant thing it offers me is it frees up my schedule instead of planning time to watch a tv show the first time it airs. If you have yet to experience the joy that the website offers, Hulu is a site that streams full episodes from many different channels of your favorite shows. Not only that they have a database of older shows, to catch up on the ones you might have missed, or the classic show that you want to watch again. The streams also only have three 30 second commercials per episode, for all those who hate to watch commercials. Now though Hulu has gone onto TV itself, with commercials with Alec Baldwin and the newest one includes Eliza Dushku.
"Because we're aliens, its kinda our thing."
Hulu's adds are just playing on the "theory" that when someone watches tv their brain turns to much. Their commercials are very effient in this sense and its their technology of putting all of the shows on to the internet that intices users. From the commercials not many people know what the website is and from the oddity of it they would look at the website and see what it is all about. In the end the website is a savior of time, no more saying no to plans becuase you have to stay home and watch a show. They even have HD shows and movies that you can watch, and most likely as a college student your tv is much worse than your computer.
