See the irony? This inspired me to call Comcast. It’s been rough, but oh so fun.

Around 80% of what most Americans watch on TV can be had for free. Scandal!

Dear Cable:

Before I say anything else: It’s not you. It’s me.

I’ve changed over the years. I’m hardly at home. And when I am, it’s not live television I’m watching. It’s stuff that’s been queued up on my DVR for weeks. But mostly, when I’m on my couch with a remote in my hand, I’ve been…streaming. I know how wrong that must sound. But everyone’s getting their shows and movies through the Internet these days. I’m sorry. It’s just the reality of things.

I’m quitting you, cable.

Mog is Free! Mog is now free. Last I knew it was ten bucks a month. Screw Spotify! Well, maybe not. So many choices for music on the web.

Not only a cord cutter, in my spare time I am a social media participant and observer. We spend a lot of time defining what that means. Here’s a stab at that.

Social Media Explained (with donuts)

Tumblr: This is a really beautiful photo of a high end donut.

Reddit: There is a conspiracy in the donut industry

4Chan: Donut. Hole. LOL. 

It’s not that hard people. Oh sure I needed medication the first few weeks to get over loosing wall to wall sports channels. But did you know you can still view them without cable? They maybe funky and grainy but the images and sound are solid and as long as Tom Brady doesn’t spill the beans again. <Nice game tonight Tom!>

So hit that follow button and ride the guide to freedom.
