Oscars

Despite finding a television complete with remote and rabbit ears, we have yet to hook it up. Even if we did I doubt we would be able to see the Oscars and it would be when I would leave for work.

So with that in mind, I waited around 18 hours after the ceremony, checked my favorite Chinese website, and got download links for the whole program including red carpet talks and after party stuff. The site also said which movies had won awards and then provided links for those movies to be downloaded as well. Ah the power of the internet.

Hi Richard,

I used to think of the Oscars as an American event. From your post you really clarify how the Oscars are now an international event. The best part is that in a foreign (Korea) country you use the internet to go to a second foreign country (China) to get an American show.

The internet is linking the world together.
