Youtube app for ps3

Since I've discovered the youtube application on the ps3, I've been watching a lot more documentaries gaming videos and basically any of a video that I can think of. Everything that are use to watch on my ps3 with either downloaded or streamed. I use to have this little thing call play tv it would let me watch pars and record live tv right onto my ps3 hardrive. 4 months I knew that the weather youtube application for the ps3 it was in america only so me being in the uk I sell a little bit bummed out.

It's great I can parrot up with my iphone to my android device on my tablet and unable to run youtube videos on my phone and then direkt the youtube application to that video and it starts please. It's just like the chrome car but you can't stream play movies on netflix so it got its limitations. I was actually going to buy a conker but once I discovered the youtube application for the ps3 I don't see the point anymore.

When I'm watching videos at night I normally have a sleep timer on and if you don't touch any of the controls within an hour it will shut itself off so I don't have to worry about leaving the ps3 on all night. Plus my tv has a sleep timer too if it retries no signal to 5 minutes that shuts itself off as well.
So I've got it all worked out I can watch adventure time and not worry about falling asleep television on. If I wanted to watch any documentaries I would have to manually search them in and download them on and stream it from my computer of them on a portable hard drive and and coffee over to the ps3 now I can just type in the documentry that I want on youtube and it's that simple.

Mainly I've been watching documentaries on how the earth was created because of the sun layers of the song planet from hell and how the moon affects, which is what I came hear talk about. But I think I will just save it for another blog.

I think google have really hit the nail on the head dave come up with a little device it's very cheap and you're able to play getting into any hdmi tv. It cuts the need out of any smart tv period. Get yourself a netflix account which cost about 6 pounds a month and you're set for life you're able to stream every movie that's available on netflix and also the tv show music etc.

With the chrome cast it's not actually streaming any content if you use your phone from youtube or play movies. So you can start a youtube video connected up to the chrome cast on and turn the wifi off on your phone and it will still be playing on the chrome cast.

Paranoid android 4.4

For the past year, I've been using the galaxy nexus as my daily driver, and its one of the best phones I've ever had. Native android is the best experience you can have out of any android skin. Its simple, everything works the way its supposed to without any the manufactures bloatware on the device. Using the galaxy nexus, I rooted and flashed a paranoidandroid ROM onto the device. This gave me permission to change each application to either have the tablet UI, Phone UI or a phablet UI. And not just other the entire OS. I could set it to each application. Over the past few years, paranoidandroid have been leading the pack with features that no other ROM creators have intergrated into their system. Its two features that I really love on the galaxy nexus and that's the Halo feature and pie controls and something that I grew to a custom within days of using the controls. Swiping up from the bottom would reveal the back, home, menu, recent apps buttons. Therefore relieving the screen of the navigation bar at the bottom to give me more screen real estate to work with. I've always say this since the original native OS which implemented navigation bar as a basis for the OS. Obviously google won't integrate this feature into their OS because the majority of people won't know how to go back unless they get their son to show them. But if this was built into the settings where you could have pie controls in the developer options. It would be fantastic and therefore me not having to root or flash a paranoid android ROM onto the device.
The other feature is Halo, which is not based on the game. But in fact a way of displaying your notifications in a little bubble, there's no need for a notification bar. So you get the full experience of the app. Double tap halo, and you can move it around the screen. Hold down and reveals all your info on your phone such as signal. WiFi status, time etc.
Swiping right from the halo and keeping your finger on the screen will display your notifications one by one and then when you've found the notification you want to work on, lift up your finger and it will go to the app corresponding with the notification in a floating app mode, where it floats on top of your already running application.
