Chromecast is Google’s cheap streaming stick helping you cut
cords with cable providers, and make the most of your Netflix subscription.
The Chromecast will allow you to “cast” content such as
Netflix or YouTube directly to your TV. There are a range of apps that can be
downloaded to your phone that will work with the Chromecast, including a
variety of games. This means that any TV
can become a “smart” internet connected TV.

| The Chromecast is a very small dongle to fit into the back of a TV. |
Chromecast also has the option of streaming content in a web
browser. This means that any video that
can be watched in Google Chrome on the computer can be seamlessly streamed,
whether or not the specific webpage supports it or not (such as Echo360). This also works for pages in full screen.
The Chromecast can plug into the back of any TV with an HDMI
port. You then control it with your Android
phone or tablet, iPhone/iPad, or PC/Mac.

| The Chromecast's main screen dynamically scrolls through spectacular photos from the internet or from your personal collection. |
The Chromecast retails for $50 which I believe to be an
absolute bargain considering how useful it is and how well it works.
The Chromecast’s ease of use, its simplicity in setting up,
its reliability and its cheap asking price makes it a great little gadget to
have. Because it is relatively cheap, it also makes a great gift.
