Handpicked Software

I don’t watch television, but this slick new HBO Widget offers up a selection of free teasers and trailers, as well as the complete schedule for HBO and Cinemax channels. Watch clips from Bill Maher and Inside the NFL, interviews with the cast of the Sopranos, previews of documentaries and special features, and The Buzz. Video plays right inside the widget—it’s a little TV—and if you flip it over you’ll find links to HBO’s full schedule and free HBO podcasts available from iTunes. There’s even an Easter Egg. I’m almost tempted to get HBO, just so I can watch Big Love.

Bottom Line: You don’t need a TV to enjoy this little HBO widget.
