Yawning cats relegated to computers? Not anymore

TiVoTube:  Tivo/YouTube
Your TV just came another step closer to your computer. TiVo has partnered with YouTube to bring its content to broadband-connected subscribers with the Series 3 and HD set-top boxes. This means you’ll no longer have to drag the laptop downstairs or force everybody to huddle around the tiny screen of your iPhone at parties to show your guests the latest pratfalls. Just flick on your TV and you’re set.

If you have a YouTube account, you’ll be able to access it along with your playlists and favorites. No details forthcoming yet on whether the interface will give you the limited accessibility of an old WebTV screen or if you’ll have full reign over all of YouTube’s content. If the iPhone’s YouTube screens are any indication, it’ll likely be a curated selection, but not the whole enchilada.
