What’s a kid to do when I’m stuck on campus between classes with nothing to do?  I’m too far away from any of my friends to hang out and there probably isn’t enough time anyways.  I guess I could listen to music on my ipod, but who just sits there and listens to music?  Definitely not living sexy.  I could put some movies on my ipod, but that takes forever and between my music and movies, my ipod’s not big enough for the two of them.  Well, I found a solution and it is excellent.  My solution to boredom is a program called Orb and I use it constantly.

Orb is a program you download to your computer that streams your media files to the internet when you want it.  So, if I have a movie o my computer I just navigate to orb on my phones browser and I can watch the movies anywhere.  It really is great for boredom.

But wait, there’s more.  If you’re in the car and you forgot your ipod or didn’t upload those last few songs you downloaded and you’re itching to jam out, you can stream your music too.  So if you have a headphone jack on your phone (iphones or my LG dare) you can plug it into one of those tapes with the wires or into an fm transmitter and listen to that song right the and there.

I’m not done yet.  Maybe you have some ebooks in pdf, yeah, you can stream those too.  Photos? Of course.

It gets even handier when you have an xbox360, wii or ps3.  Use the internet browser in there to stream anythig to your tv and if you’ve got it, you’re speaker system.  So good.  So easy.  There’s even an iphone app for it.
