Chromecast

During my lunchtime on Thursday last week I ordered a Google Chromecast dongle. It's a bit of kit that allows some apps to stream from a computer or tablet or phone to the TV.  My TV is an internet smart TV but there is no keyboard, making searching through YouTube a bit of a nightmare, for example. With Chromecast streaming video is really easy from YouTube. I suppose to be expected since both are owned by the same company. It will stream Netflix although I haven't tried that and I haven't tried WiFi only, my TV is connected to my router by a cable. The Google dongle is half the cost of a proprietary dongle for my Sony TV, I'll let you know how I get on.
