Media Matters

So, I'm assuming we all watched a bit of TV yesterday....whether it was the Super Bowl, or any of the anti-Super Bowl offerings. Anyhow, it got me thinking about TVs in general.

So far, I've not been very successful...

We have a flat screen, but unless you've got one professionally installed and wired through your wall, you still have to deal with the limitations of all those connections. Since I'm always on the lookout for nice and/or clever solutions to these media matters....here's a few that have come across my radar...
