I really enjoy watching Hulu on my computer and was wondering if it works with the iPad? Does it? Unfortunately, at this time Hulu will not work on the iPad. Hulu is a service that lets viewers watch popular television shows and movies in a streaming format. It uses Flash to do this, which the iPad does not currently support. Have some patience, though, as Hulu might become available for the iPad in the future. There is some speculation that it will be a pay service and you will have to get a subscription for it, however. Hopefully it will be compatible with the iPad sooner than later, and it will remain free. A friend just got me hooked on the video sharing site called Vimeo. Will it work on my iPad? Yes, Vimeo will work on the iPad so you can view its large catalog of video clips submitted by users. There is one condition, though. To view the Vimeo clips, you have to be on their website, and not on another site where the clip is embedded. The reason for this is that Vimeo's website offers a HTML5 video player that is iPad friendly. I'm a YouTube fiend and need my daily fix of its video clips. I want to run it on my iPad but watch it on a larger screen. Will this setup work? Yes, friendly fiend, you can get your daily YouTube fix projected to a bigger screen. To do this, you will need to purchase the iPad Dock Connector to VGA Adapter, Apple's Component AV Cable, or the Apple Composite AV Cable. I feel that newspapers are a thing of the past and love watching news videos from my favorite sites on the web. My television got repossessed for late payments too. What are some news websites whose videos are compatible with the iPad? Well, first of all, congratulations on ruining your credit. Now onto the question. You can view videos from a plethora of popular news providers on the iPad. Among them are Fox News, MSNBC, Time, Reuters, the New York Times, CNN, and many more. All of these sites have HTML5 video players that are compatible with the iPad. Now, go get your iPad and catch up on your current events!
