After reading this post, you'll probably think I made it up, but I didn't: NBC is going to make its nightly newscast available on its website starting Nov. 7.

How do they come up with ideas like that?

"Many of our viewers tell me they often miss the broadcast because they're not at home or tending to their busy lives and families," anchor Brian Williams said. "This new service reflects the fact that the pace of our lives has changed."

There will be a three-hour delay between the end of the broadcast and when the online video will be available -- plenty o' time to attend to the demands of those busy lives.

Honestly, it just never occurred to me that in 2005, you could use the web in that way: Putting up video for people to see at their leisure.

This old world just keeps on changing.
