TiVo Lets Users Share Photos and Videos

TiVo is shaking things up again this week with a new free feature that lets you share photos and videos with other TiVo users. You need a Series 2 or Series 3 TiVo box connected to the Internet to view the shared media (creating the slideshows can be done from any PC), and it took me a few seconds to set up a free account and upload some pics of my new dog Fred. The service has some decent tools for creating slideshows and photo albums.
Final verdict: Nice, but nothing you can’t do online. If your family is TiVoed up and all over the place, this is a nice way to broadcast your own content on their TV sets. Why did this take so long? Source: OneTrueMedia.com
