OPENhulu: Why wait for a Hulu invitation?

OPENhulu and Hulu
Want to check out the NBC Universal and News Corp's invite-only online video site Hulu, but haven't been able to get an invitation? No problem, just check out OPENhulu. You can much of the same content, streaming directly from Hulu's servers.

OPENhulu is the brainchild of Matt Schlicht, and while he insists that he isn't violating any of Hulu's rules, we can't imagine it'll take long for someone to send this guy a cease and desist notice.

Schlicht's idea is pretty simple. Hulu lets you embed most of the service's videos on your own website. Since the videos include advertisements, Hulu makes money no matter where you watch them. So Schlicht has begun to embed every video he can on his own site. The layout isn't quite as pretty as Hulu, and there's a whole bunch of advertising on every page.

Since Schlicht has to copy and paste the embed code one at a time, not every TV show, series, or movie is available yet. If you're looking for Doogie Houser M.D. episodes you're out of luck for now. But you can watch The A-Team, Bones, House, My Name is Earl and many other popular shows. Or you could visit NBC.com or Fox.com to find many of the same episodes.
