This Site Can Turn Your Browser Into a Wall of TVs

You know how, on old TV shows, important people will have a wall of televisions so they can keep track of everything going on in the world? It's a ridiculous concept and totally impractical. It's also something you can do.

TV Wall is a free website that shows nine random TV news stations from around the world. This could be useful during an election or other unfolding international event, allowing you to see how news organizations in different countries are covering things. But I'm not going to pretend this is a practical tool. It's mostly just kind of fun to play around with.

Head to the site and you'll be presented with nine channels arranged in a three-by-three grid. A panel on the left side lets you customize the size of the grid, if you want, and you can also turn off the weird Matrix-style framing around all the TVs. A shuffle button allows you to see all new channels or you can scroll down in the left side panel to filter the channels by language or country.

Scroll further down and you'll find the point to unmute feature, which will unmute whatever channel is currently under your mouse cursor—this makes it easy to quickly keep track of what's being said on all channels. Or, if you want to be more passive, you can have the audio randomly jump from channel to channel.

You can also manually change the channels—just hover over a video to see a top bar. You can use the drop down to choose a specific channel. You can also unmute the audio or make the current channel full screen.

The actual channels offered are all ones you could stream legally on the web if you wanted. This includes the BBC, Bloomberg, Australia's ABC, and a number of U.S. network TV channels. What this site offers is the ability to monitor a bunch of these channels at the same time.

I find it fascinating how easy it has become to watch TV on the web, for free. If you're looking for similar sites, I recommend checking out our list of TV channels you can stream for free or our roundup of retro TV sites. You'll never be bored again.
