How to Turn your Computer to an Internet-TV

I love films and I guess you too. However it is difficult for me in Singapore to afford a TV with cable. Recently I found a software named XBMC which is able to turn computers to Internet-TVs. Now I will show you how to install and use it.

1. Download XBMC and install it.
2. Import Media to XBMC. You can add photo, music, video to XBMC and play them.
3. The most interesting thing of XBMC is we can watch many high-res video from Movies, TV Shows from it. Just install Video add-on to watch. Below is the list of Video add-on I highly recommend:

• 1Channel: many movies and TV Shows.
• allscience: hundreds of videos about science
• Discovery Channel: famous Discovery program
• TED Talks: Watching TED talks from XBMC
• TubePlus: good to follow latest aired TV Shows like British Got Talent, The Voice US/UK...

Note that some video add-on are included in XBMC. Some good add-on like 1Channel, you need to install later. You can visit XBMC Blog to know how to install.
4. If you are using iPhone, Android Phone, remember to download the XBMC app to control your new internet-TV :) iPhone app can be download at AppStore

Enjoy!

Send your particulars faster to others

It is around 2 years since my last post. Recently I feel I have many thoughts and want to share with you. So today I decide to write blog again :)

Today I want to share one of my tips in using iPhone efficiently. In daily life, you are often asked to send or input to some website your full name, address, bank account, passport number, your email address, many to count.

Instead of typing them again and again, I find a way to type them faster by creating shortcut in iPhone. You can go Settings - General - Keyboard - Shortcuts and add new shortcut. For example, I add a shortcut "myemail" to "truongkhanhit@gmail.com" and later whenever I type myemail, iPhone will suggest "truongkhanhit@gmail.com". Remember to choose the shortcut special and not frequently appear in your text.
