FEELING nostalgic? Head on over to the Minisode Network, which is part of MySpace TV.
The site offers free streaming video of vintage shows owned by Sony Pictures Television such as “Charlie’s Angels,” “The Facts of Life” and “Starsky and Hutch.” The “Charlie’s Angels” photo I used here is courtesy of Associated Press.
These episodes are compressed so that you can watch the whole show over the Internet, which explains why they’re called minisodes. (Well, not exactly the whole show, because they’re edited so that they’re shorter, but you can still get the gist of the full episode. Watch them and see if they still make sense, heh.)
The great thing about these minisodes is that, like the short clips you can upload to sites like MySpace TV, YouTube and Yahoo! Video, these videos can be embedded on your blog or social networking profile.
Check out some of these blasts from the past.
