Break a Leg in Wall Street Journal in Most Hilarious Way

Hey, guys.

So, Break a Leg is in the Wall Street Journal -- in what I think is the best way possible.

Somehow -- and we're grateful, WSJ guys, we really are -- my blog below about Break a Leg being on Bravia TVs made it up on their article about JumpTV. No, it's not an actual mention. It's a link at the bottom of their story, a related blog link.

Has our blog reached a place where a publication as big as the Wall Street Journal actual links to it? Let's hope so.

Or, better yet, let's hope whoever put that up is both Human and a fan. Drew (Jimmy Scotch) believes it's a robot -- ideally a robot who's a fan -- but either way, it's a fun little mention.

Now, WSJ -- all you have to do is interview us for an article titled: Internet TV Is Picking Up and Breaking Legs.

That's a freebie.

Also, don't forget to link this blog to your next article.

Thanks,

-Yuri

Break a Leg on Bravia TVs -- sort of.

Hey, guys.

Break a Leg is going to be available through a special service on Brava TVs (a service, that, unfortunately, you'd have to pay for.) I pasted the article below.

New Content From CondeNet, Sports Illustrated, blip.tv and Sony Pictures Added to Sony's BRAVIA Internet Video Link Service

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Sony Electronics today announced new content providers that will bring Internet video to BRAVIA high-definition televisions via the company's innovative BRAVIA Internet Video Link service.

New Internet channels will be coming from CondeNet, Sports Illustrated, blip.tv and Sony Pictures, which will add eight new Internet channels. The new content partners join a current roster of providers that include Yahoo!, AOL and Crackle, which have been live on the service since it launched in August.

The new content will include travel and lifestyle programming, original shorts, condensed broadcast sitcom episodes, and classic action/adventure shows. Current BRAVIA Internet Video Link users will see logos for the new content appear on their television menu system as they become available.

"The Internet has opened a completely new medium for viewers to access unique programs of their choosing," said Randy Waynick, senior vice president of the Home Products Division of Sony Electronics. "The BRAVIA Internet Video Link brings that programming directly to your living room TV for everyone in the family to enjoy."

CondeNet, an Internet unit of Conde Nast Publications, will deliver four new Internet channels later this month, offering award-winning fashion content from Style.com, lifestyle content from Men.Style.com, food/dining content from Epicurious.com, and travel content from Concierge.com.

Later this month, Sports Illustrated will bring the magazine's annual swimsuit issue to life on the BRAVIA service with videos from behind the scenes, interviews and other special coverage. Other sports content will also be featured on the video service at a later date.

The new blip.tv Internet channel, which goes live today, focuses on Internet-only content. Blip.tv, which was recently rated No. 1 in PC World's reader survey of best user-generated content sites, brings a number of the site's shows to the BRAVIA Internet Video Link service, including Rocketboom, Unleashed, Break a Leg, Alive in Baghdad, Goodnight Burbank and Geek Entertainment TV.

The BRAVIA Internet Video Link is a small module that attaches to the back of a majority of the company's 2007 BRAVIA television models, including all of the BRAVIA LCD flat-panel TVs, which began shipping to retail in June (excluding the BRAVIA M-series LCD models). The module links the television set directly to existing broadband Internet service providers via an Ethernet connection, allowing users to access Internet video programming, without the use of a personal computer.

Content is easily navigated with Sony's Technical Emmy(R) award-winning Xross Media Bar (XMB)(TM) user interface.

Once the TV and BRAVIA Internet Video Link module have been purchased, videos are available at no charge, bringing content to Sony televisions not found on network or cable/satellite TV stations.

Which, all in all, is fairly fun news.

Break a Leg almost hipper than the phrase --

Why am I writing a blog this late? Or early, I should say?

Well, partly because I just came home and partly because I just came home and, as per usual, googled myself.

That probably sounds dirty. What I meant to say was -- I googled Break a Leg and guess what? Break a Leg is now almost, ALMOST hipper than the actual phrase, "Break a Leg." That's right, we're second, SECOND out of 1,420,000 entries when googling Break a Leg.

Who's first? The wikipedia entry for the phrase. Can we hit first? We'll need other blogs and sites to mention us, as that's how Google works (so if you've got a site, feel absolutely free to throw us a link). But, either way, it's pretty cool!

Also, we're up to 230 subscribers. Do I hear 300?

Goodnight!
