Hulu: American Gladiators Night 2

Did you miss night 2 of American Gladiators? Me too. Here you go:

I have to say, [[[Hulu]]] is pretty awesome. Full videos, ad-supported in the video itself so they don’t care if you embed it in your blog like I just did. Now the real question is: does their embed code break validation?

UPDATE: Yep, the Hulu embed code breaks validation. Fortunately, the workaround I figured out for YouTube and Google Video also works with Hulu. Also, good thing I tested this as I discovered that the updated code for the [[[Mahalo]]] WordPress plug-in we’re testing on this blog that was built by Chris Miller and which works great is, despite its wonderful functionality, also breaking the validation. Chris, if you see this post, remember to replace all & with & in the links generated in the plug-in code (I think that’s what’s doing it). I’ll hack at it myself some night when I’m not quite as tired as I am now. Also, your site was down when I was writing this post.

Yeah, I actually did miss that episode, thanks for embedding it… now I can watch it. Great quality, too, awesome!

And Hulu seems like a great site. I’ve entered my e-mail address to the waiting list so I can participate in the private beta. Hopefully.

Peace.

UPDATE: I just got into the private beta of Hulu.com and started scanning through all the shows.

I have to say that I am extremely impressed at all the new and old shows that are currently available in the library. Not to mention the quality, even at full screen is just amazing. I’m not sure what else to say. Wow.

One question remains though: Will Hulu.com, after going out of private beta, remain free or will it cost eventually? I hope not.
