That's What She Said -- The Office

Fri, 5 December 2008

Blog poster "Funtivities" brought up an interesting dilemma that is all too familiar to many foreign residents-- Hulu.com, NBC's great streaming service, only works to those who live within the United States. This blocking is accomplished by a simple check of your IP address-- if it's located in the US you're golden, and if not, NOT.

I ran across this on Digg.com a few days ago, and thought it might help-- full instructions on how anyone outside of the US can access Hulu.com.

Good luck!

Wow. Hey Matt! That worked perfectly on my macbook. I live here in Germany and have wished for a way to see The Office web content. Thanks to you it\'s now possible. I can also see all the other hulu stuff. AWESOME. You guys are great. A podcast with value added! I\'m a huge fan. Tim in Kandern, Germany

Ditto to what Tim said (except replace Germany with Australia), this just made my whole day :)

Thanks so much Matt! I live in Malaysia, and when I\'m back in the US over the summer, Hulu is awesome, but it\'s annoying when it doesn\'t work over here. Thanks a bunch :D
