Check out the pic to the side. Seems Microsoft has released this handy-dandy web based plug in for you Media Center PC or Xbox 360 that will let you schedule and record your favorite programs from anywhere. Yup, anywhere. Office, phone, Starbucks, you name it. If you can get to the internet, you can get to the site to schedule (and watch) recording of any program you wish.
WebGuide bills itself as the ultimate remote viewing and scheduling add-on for Media Center.
WebGuide allows you to remotely view live and recorded TV programs and to remotely schedule and manage your recorded television programs, music, pictures and videos on your Media Center or Windows Vista PC. Install WebGuide on your Media Center PC and access it from any machine that has a web browser, including your cell phone or mobile device.
This doesn't seem to be such a bad idea. I haven't used Slingbox but the added features seem to make this worth while. Plus, the biggie for me - it's completely free.
I just love free apps :S
