Spreety TV Online announces a fun way to integrate online TV with your web site.

Los Angeles,

When Microsoft architected Windows Communication Foundation, little did they know it would be this much fun.

The flexibility of WCF enabled Spreety TV Online to cost effectively implement the Open Spreety project. Spreety tracks the legal places to watch TV, news, sports, and movies online, and the Open Spreety project shares the links with everyone via services for reuse into their web sites and blogs.

While Spreety utilized WCF, other web sites can use a variety of service technologies, including WCF, Web Services, and Javascript, giving people the empowerment for best fit opportunities.

For example, a web site about the 1950’s could spice up their site with links to 1950’s TV shows. The same is true for genre web sites, like western, science fiction, home & garden, sports, mystery, and more.

Fan sites of TV shows would enjoy the zero maintenance aspect of the online TV links. For example, ABC, NBC, and FOX recently changed their links for watching TV shows, and the Spreety database kept in synch. Certain shows switched from one place to another, like Pushing Daisies (ABC to WB) and Medium (NBC to CBS), and the Spreety database kept in synch.

“When I learned service oriented architecture (SOA), the available examples were boring”, according to Spreety co-founder Ron Laughton. “Working with online TV via services is much more fun. I would encourage programmers everywhere to try out the Web Services and WCF with Spreety.”

Wouldn’t it be great if most web sites included relevant links to TV shows online? Now there is an easy way to add legal links to top TV shows with Spreety TV Online.

Spreety TV Online is pleased to announce the Open Spreety project, which empowers web sites to include dynamically updating links from the Spreety database into their web sites with a simple script.

The Spreety code generator builds custom scripts for quick insertion into a web site’s html. The code generator can deliver visual links via many categories, including Search, Movies, New & Recently Added, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, Action & Adventure, Art & Entertainment, Business, Comedy, Crime, Documentary, Drama & Thriller, Family, Games & Competitions, History, Home & Garden, Horror & Suspense, Kids, Medical, Music & Radio, Mystery, News & Commentary, Reality, Religion & Spirituality, Romance, SciFi & Fantasy, Science, Shopping, Soap Operas, Sports, Superheroes, Talk Shows, Variety, Western, and Youth TV shows.

Display formats are in two sizes: the 670 pixel wide format with show details, and the 93 pixel wide graphic only format to conserve space.

For example, a web site about the 1960’s could spice up their site with links to 1960’s TV shows. The same is true for genre web sites, like western, science fiction, home & garden, sports, mystery, and more.

Fan sites of TV shows would enjoy the zero maintenance aspect of the online TV links. For example, ABC, NBC, and FOX recently changed their links for watching TV shows, and the Spreety database kept in synch. Certain shows switched from one place to another, like Pushing Daisies (ABC to WB) and Medium (NBC to CBS), and the Spreety database kept in synch.

“This is a win-win for everyone involved”, according to Spreety co-founder Ron Laughton. “We created Spreety to educate people about the legal places to watch free TV online, and now we can share through top notch technology.”

Los Angeles, CA

Have you ever wanted to enhance or replace your TV with the latest technology? Would you like to know how?

The founders of Spreety’s Guide to Watch TV Shows Online, who replaced their TV with a PC in 2007, have posted a free e-book titled, “The Entertainment PC: A How To Guide”.

The visually appealing e-book is on the Spreety.com site, and was written in five sections. The “Introduction” section explains why many TV shows and movies are legally available online for free. The “What’s Online” section discusses the best places to watch TV online. The “What to Buy” section discusses the hardware to fully enjoy high definition online TV. The “How to Configure” section discusses the optimal viewing configuration for a Windows Vista machine. The “Usage Tips” section wraps up the document with miscellaneous viewing advice.

“I enjoy our entertainment PC,” says Ron Laughton, co-founder of Spreety. “We use it for TV shows, sports, movies, music, home videos, video games, and photo slideshows. Our new e-book empowers those who are interested in doing the same with their entertainment center.”

As the case for watching TV online becomes stronger, incorporating a PC into the entertainment center may become more common. For those with a taste for the new, the free Spreety e-book is worth a look.

With Hollywood, knowing the talk is part of walking the walk.

Los Angeles, CA

With Hollywood, knowing the talk is part of walking the walk. So where can you learn the dynamic terminology of such a trendy industry?

Enter Hollywords, an encyclopedic dictionary of thousands of entertainment terms. Hollywords has been meticulously compiled since 2002, and a three thousand term subset is available on Spreety.com.

The terms span the sophisticated (i.e. avant-garde), to the technical (i.e. variable bit-rate encoding), to the pop-culture (chick flick). Everyone from a casual fan to a chiseled industry expert will find something new to learn.

“At Spreety, we were looking for a quality glossary to compliment our free Entertainment PC e-book. The Hollywords knowledge and depth far exceeded our expectations”, Ron Laughton, co-founder of Spreety’s Guide to Watch TV Shows Online.

“People often use slang and technical jargon to exclude the uninitiated from the inner circle. Hollywords breaks down these barriers and Spreety is an ideal platform to help us spread the word”, Richard W. Kroon, founder of Hollywords.

One question remains: will a word like Spreety ever make the Hollywords list? Only time will tell.
