Here’s an interesting read for anybody who owns a TiVo and is a parent. The article talks about how DVRs and other technology have changed the way in which our children perceive the world. Interesting if you are into that kind of thing…

In Sam’s world, whatever he wants to watch is at his — or, rather, his parents’ — fingertips. We have TiVo, and we’ve amassed a sizable collection of his favorite shows. He never has to wait for The Wiggles to come on; he asks and he receives. I feel bad when we can’t show him something because we didn’t think to record it the first time we watched it.

Back in September of 05 TiVo announced that they were looking for somebody who could represent the company as a TiVo ambassador. Just today TiVo announced Matt Ward of San Diego was selected to be the ambassador. Matt has already started blogging on the official TiVo blog. More information on Matt as well as a link to the winning video submission and his essay submission can be found here.
I truly look forward to reading what Matt has to say.

We all know that I’ve been a little criticial of the blog before so I hope that Matt provides the site with some interesting content and discussion. In any case, I’d like to congratulate Matt!
