Watch TV for Free

by Chris Gilmer Aug 21st 2006

FreeTube lets you watch TV without cable, satellite, or any other transmission devices or paid subscriptions. Their online service provides anyone that cares to watch, free TV service.

FreeTube has 12 different channel categories ranging from News, Business, Music, Sports, and Movies, each with a dropdown of different stations. The videos start streaming when the channels are clicked on, with some stations can be a little slow and buggy--I had my browser freeze a few times when trying to view. I'm not too sure where they are getting a lot of their streams from, most likely from online streams, nonetheless, FreeTube is a pretty cool idea that is a little rough around the edges.

Civiballs is a beautiful, soothing physics puzzle Time Waster

I have an absolute weakness for physics games, and while Civiballs isn't the strongest physics-based game, what it lacks in the physics department it makes up for a few times over in style and fun.

In Civiballs, you are presented with a few colored balls, and your goal is to get those balls into the same-colored urn on the level. The "civi" part of Civiballs is that there are 3 sets of levels to play, each representing a different civilization. While the civilization doesn't affect gameplay, the artwork for each level is beautifully themed to it's appropriate era.

To play the game, you are given only one tool - a sword with which to cut the chains that are holding the balls. The puzzle part of the game is in figuring out what order, and with what timing to cut each chain. Do it right, and all the right balls end up in the right urns, with no stray balls entering an urn (a no-no). Do it wrong, and you get to start over again.

Civiballs is not terribly deep on gameplay; the entire game can be completed in about 15 minutes. But if you enjoy this type of game, it will be a very enjoyable 15 minutes.
