8 Online Tools To Download And Convert Youtube Videos

There are dozens of tools to convert and download videos from YouTube, but it's quite hard to pick the best one. This is because each of them has its pluses and minuses. I did a research and found some websites that did the job and made a list of them.

Here goes the list:

1. CatchYouTube.com enables you to convert YouTube videos into any number of different video and audio formats and then to download these to your computer. You just have to copy & paste the Youtube web address (URL) and start converting. The videos can be converted to MPG, MOV (Mac), DVD, MP4 (iPod, PSP, iPhone), 3GP, MP3, WAV or FLV format.

2. Zamzar is a free universal online converter, which means you can convert any files without using any software. It is not only good at doing the Youtube conversion but it also supports the conversion of 72 images, videos, musics and documents formats. Learn more about this website by watching this tutorial video by Zamzar. I strongly recommend that you bookmark this website as I believe it will benefit you in the future. This is also my favorite.

3. Anjo.to lets you download Youtube videos in normal flv format or convert them to the 3GP, MP3, AVI, MOV, or MP4 (iPod, PSP, iPhone) formats. Anjo is also different from the rest because it has multi load feature, where you can submit up to 10 videos in a single time. The videos links will later be sent to your email. You can do everything in one go.

4. Vixy typically has the same features as Anjo, except it only allows one conversion at a time. The videos can be converted to 3GP, MP3, AVI, MOV, or MP4 formats.

5. KCoolOnline currently works for over 231 streaming video sites, and more are being added every week. It's recommended to people who are seeking for simplicity.

6. Media Converter produces good video conversion. The tool is not limited to video conversion; it also supports hundreds of audio and document formats and is in the same league as Zamzar.

7. KeepVid is quite easy to use. In addition to that, it also supports other website such as Google video, IFilm, Break and many more. The file downloaded is in the flv format.

8. Vid2pc is also quite easy to use. It supports FLV, MP4 (iPod, PSP, iPhone) or 3GP format.

P.S. I believe there are plenty more websites out there that I've missed out, so if you have any in mind or is one of your favorite, please share it. I hope this list benefits you. =)

Susan Boyle - Overnight Stardom from Britains Got Talent 2009

This is crazy! While I was watching the news, they showed a video of Susan Boyle singing on Britains Got Talent. Next I see my dad watching this on Youtube. What a BUZZ this is. This person's name - Susan Boyle from Blackburn, Scotland, keeps popping up on news, blogs and on Youtube.

Can you believe that one of the video has over 12 Million views from only a few days. If you add up all the videos relating to her, I believe there will be around 20 Millions views! This event just happened recently on April 11 2009 and overnight, Susan Boyle is famous all around the world.

Now she even has a fan site at www.susan-boyle.com, which you can check out all the buzz going around there.

Still don't know what I'm talking about, watch the video below.

I couldn't find a way to embed the video on this page because all the embedding was disabled by request. Don't worry, just click on the link and it will open in a new tab/window. Just remember to come back to my blog to finish reading the rest of the post. =)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lp0IWv8QZY

After watching this video, what do you think? What I can say is "Never judge a book by its cover". That's what many of us do. Just look at the face and reactions of the judges - Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan. They were totally stunned. Even the crowd was wowed by Susan Boyle's singing.

She Even got interviewed by news stations. Watch this video of Susan Boyle being interviewed by BBC Reporting Scotland of her feelings about the reaction to her amazing performance on Britains Got Talent.



That's all for the BUZZ.

If you have something to say or comment about, please feel free to.

Have a great day ahead of you.

I am an Analytical Thinker

A few days ago while I was chatting online, suddenly Ivan ask me to go try out this personality test thing, so I took the test to see how accurate the test is. After taking the test I told Melvin about it too. You can check out Melvin's results here.

Oh yea before I forget, you can check out my results below.

Analytical Thinkers are reserved, quiet persons. They like to get to the bottom of things - curiosity is one of their strongest motives. They want to know what holds the world together deep down inside. They do not really need much more to be happy because they are modest persons. Many mathematicians, philosophers and scientists belong to this type. Analytical Thinkers loathe contradictions and illogicalness; with their sharp intellect, they quickly and comprehensively grasp patterns, principles and structures. They are particularly interested in the fundamental nature of things and theoretical findings; for them, it is not necessarily a question of translating these into practical acts or in sharing their considerations with others. Analytical Thinkers like to work alone; their ability to concentrate is more marked than that of all other personality types. They are open for and interested in new information.

Analytical Thinkers have little interest in everyday concerns - they are always a little like an “absent-minded professor” whose home and workplace are chaotic and who only concerns himself with banalities such as bodily needs when it becomes absolutely unavoidable. The acknowledgement of their work by others does not play a great role for them; in general,they are quite independent of social relationships and very self-reliant. Analytical Thinkers therefore often give others the impression that they are arrogant or snobby - especially because they do not hesitate to speak their mind with their often harsh (even if justified) criticism and their imperturbable self-confidence. Incompetent contemporaries do not have it easy with them. But whoever succeeds in winning their respect and interest has a witty and very intelligent person to talk to. A partner who amazes one with his excellent powers of observation and his very dry humour.

It takes some time before Analytical Thinkers make friends, but then they are mostly friends for life. They only need very few people around them. Their most important ability is to be a match for them and thus give them inspiration. Constant social obligations quickly get on their nerves; they need a lot of time alone and often withdraw from others. Their partner must respect this and understand that this is not due to the lack of affection. Once they have decided in favour of a person, Analytical Thinkers are loyal and reliable partners. However, one cannot expect romance and effusive expressions of feelings from them and they will definitely forget their wedding anniversary. But they are always up to a night spent with stimulating discussions and a good glass of wine!

Adjectives which describe your type
introverted, theoretical, logical, spontaneous, rational, analytical, intellectual, sceptical, pensive, critical, quiet, precise, independent, creative, inventive, abstract, eccentric, curious, reserved, self-involved, imaginative, unsociable, determined, modest, careful, incommunicative, witty

These subjects could interest you
literature, science fiction, philosophy, psychology, mathematics, Internet, drawing/painting, astrology, spiritual things, meditation, music, writing, strategy games, politics

So for those of you that knows me, what do you think after reading my personality test results? Is the results accurate or not? I want to hear your opinions. If you can please write me your opinions in the comment box below.

Don't forget to take the test for yourself at the link below:
http://www.ipersonic.com/test.html

After taking the test you can also post your results in my comment box to share with others.

That's all for today. Enjoy yourself and have a great day!

Express your inner artist with Sketchfu

Do you still remember the post I made about Sketchcast? If not you can check it out here. Today I'll be sharing with you about Sketchfu. Sketchfu can be considered as an alternative to Sketchcast.

Just from the name itself, I think you already can roughly guess what can you do with them. What you can do on Sketchfu is... you can draw, doodle, and create your own sketches, or edit drawings of others. There are dozens of colors for you to choose from and brush sizes range from tiny to the "BIG" size which is the biggest.

Every brush stroke you make while creating your sketch of masterpiece is captured and turned into a so called movie which shows step-by-step how your drawing came to life. Cool isn't it? You can also share your finished drawing via email, StumbleUpon, Facebook, MySpace and even a few popular blogging platforms.

What Sketchfu lag of is the ability to record your own voice while creating your masterpiece. This might be useful if you want to explain to someone how your created your masterpiece.

Go try it out now and let me know what do you think about it okay. Enjoy!

3 Effective Ways To Speed Up Your Computer

If you don’t take care of your computer, no matter how good the configuration of your Windows computer may be, it is bound to slow down soon. Just like all other appliances you own, it is essential for you to perform regular preventive maintenance of your computer.

Later on in the post I'll also recommend a few softwares for you to download.

The following are 3 simple and effective methods to fix your slow computer problems and ensure yourself an efficient and high performance computer.

Check and Remove Malware Infections

Most sudden and dramatic slow downs are caused by malicious program such as Trojans, adware, virus, or spyware infecting your computer system. Usually these programs creep quietly on to your system via infected external media, such as CDs, pen drives, and external hard disks. Many malicious programs, especially spyware and adware come bundled with freeware software, such as games, music, and computer utilities. These malicious programs spread quickly once they are on the system.

They not only cause slow computer problems, but may also generate several computer errors. To stop and remove these malicious infections, you need to regularly scan your system and clean it with the help of reliable antivirus and anti spyware tools. To ensure that your system is protected against the latest malware, you must keep these programs updated with the latest definitions released by their manufacturers.

The problem is that they not only cause your computer to slow down, but they may also generate several computer errors. In order to stop and remove these malicious infections, you need to scan your system and clean it with the help of reliable antivirus and anti spyware tools regularly. Make sure you keep these programs updated with the latest definitions released by their manufacturers to ensure that your system is being protected against the latest malwares.

Clean your Hard Disk

The most vital components of your Windows computer is the hard disk. This is due to the simple reason that it comprises all of your data. Over time, the hard disk gets cluttered with unwanted files and folders. If you frequently install and uninstall programs from your PC, then your hard disk may also get filled up with orphan information left behind when you remove these programs. Some of the methods that you can use to maintain a healthy hard disk are:

• Keep your system free from unwanted programs. You may use the Add or Remove Programs utility to remove these programs from the system.
  
• Use a registry cleaner tool to remove any orphan entries left behind in the registry after you have uninstalled a program.
• Use the Disk Cleanup tool to clean up unwanted data, such as Temporary Internet Files, old program setup files, and obsolete system restore points from the hard disk.
• Use the Disk Defragmenter to consolidate the fragmented files on the system and thus speed up data access time from the hard disk.

Clean Your Registry

A lot of information are added and removed from the registry as you work on your computer. Many times, information that is no longer required gets left behind and causes registry bloating. It is essential that you regularly scan and clean your registry with the help of a reliable registry cleaner tool in order to prevent your Windows XP and Windows Vista registry problems and also to speed up your computer system.

Recommended Softwares to Download

1) Revo Uninstaller - You can read more about the features at RevoUninstaller.com.

Download Revo Uninstaller

2) CCleaner - You can read about a post I did about CCleaner at Clean The Crap Out Of Your Computer System.

3) Sandboxie - Read my review about Sandboxie at Sandboxie...The Sandbox On Your Computer.

Read my other computer related post here

P.S: Remember, you must take good care of your computer and perform regular preventive maintenance to keep it free from errors. At the end of the day, you will have a healthy and fast computer.

Google Chrome - Google's New Web Browser

Download Google Chrome

Have you heard that Google just launched a new web browser called Google Chrome on the 2nd September 2008?

I've downloaded it a few days back and have been testing it on different various sites and I’m quite impressed with it but... what I can is it's not as fast as I expected it to be. =)

You can watch the video below to hear and learn more about the story behind Google Chrome from the development team on the thinking and features behind Google Chrome.




After watching the video above, you can roughly get the idea what's this Google Chrome all about. If you still don't, you can also check out Google Chrome's own comic book by Scott McCloud here.

According to Google, they say Google Chrome is a browser that combines a minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier.

Check Out The Features of Google Chrome Here

The disadvantage for now is that they do not have the add-ons which I normally use on Mozilla Firefox. What you expect huh? They just launched not long ago and I don't think this will be a big problem for Google. Oh yea, they won't be calling it add-ons for Google Chrome but it's called "Google Gears". So for now, I have to be a little patient for the developers to come out with the Google Gears. =)

Currently I have 5 web browsers on my laptop and with Google Chrome, it will be the latest addition to my family of web browsers I'm using. Hehe

If you have already tried Google Chrome, you can leave your comments telling me what you think about it or any feedbacks.

How To Open A .Lit File

*Updates: Alternative for Microsoft Reader (Read Here)

Referring to your question:
Question 1:

Before this, I have not come across any .lit files or extensions before, but after I "Googled" around, I came to know what is it all about. By the way, thanks for bringing this up. =)

So basically, the file that you received is obviously a .lit file. You will need to download Microsoft Reader. Download the file to My Documents or somewhere else, then open the reader and select your book.

Download Microsoft Reader

IMPORTANT DOWNLOAD INSTRUCTIONS


1) Click the download link.


2) In the File Download box, select Save this program to disk.


3) Save the file named "msreadersetup.exe" to your hard drive.


4) When the download is completed, locate msreadersetup.exe on your hard drive and double-click the file to begin installation.

Note: If you are running Internet Explorer 5.0 or later, a dialog box will appear when the download is completed, and you will be prompted to begin installation.


5) You'll be prompted to activate your copy of Microsoft Reader. This important step is required to purchase premium eBook titles that have been encrypted for distribution through the activation process.

Note: If you currently have an activated version of Microsoft Reader 1.5 or 1.51 on your laptop or desktop computer, make sure that you use the same Passport or Hotmail account to re-activate the new version after downloading it. (You must use the same account information to open and read the Owner Exclusive content that you have already purchased.)


6) When installation is complete, you may be prompted to restart your PC. After the restart, the installation will continue. We strongly recommend activating your device at time of installation so you can purchase and open the Owner Exclusive premium content you may already have.

Go over here to learn more on E-Book formats and readers to use.

Question 2:


I think you mean a .rar format is referring to a file being compressed or zipped. The file holds 1 or more files in it. I'm not sure is this what you're asking for. =)


The most common softwares to use are WinZip 7-Zip or WinRAR. Just choose one.

Download WinZip (13.03 MB)
Download 7-Zip (857 KB)


or

Download WinRAR (1.15 MB)

For me, I only have experience using WinRAR.


Here is some tutorial how to unzip the file:


If you still have problem using either of the unzipping software, just go and Google it up.


The software to read a .PDF is Foxit PDF Reader or Adobe Acrobat Reader. You can read my previous recommendation on PDF Readers.




P.S: To Carmen - if I didn't answered your question just let me know in the Comments box. So if it was what you're asking for and it solve your problem, just write me a testimonial Comment. =)


P.P.S: If I missed something in this post, feel free to add them in the Comment box. Thanks a lot.

Sandboxie...The Sandbox On Your Computer

*This will be quite a long post, but it's worth reading if you want to have a better security system for your computer. Enjoy reading !!

Have you ever installed a program, then suddenly wished you hadn’t? Some programs screw up your settings and you have to reset them again. Will you be happy with it? - No I wouldn't be!

Are you tired of dealing with rogue software, spyware and malware? or tired of spending countless hours removing unsolicited software? Fear not because Sandboxie is here for the rescue!

Description: Sandboxie is a program that can create a 'Sandboxed' environment on your PC within - which you can install and/or run programs or browse the net. Any data writing operations that the Sandboxed applications perform can then be rolled back and/or eliminated.

The net effect of this is to create a kind of undo mechanism that can be used to test out programs without damaging the system or surf the web without risk of infecting the system with any kind of malware.

The Sandbox defined: a Sandbox is a virtual environment that captures all disk-writing operations. For example, if you run your browser through Sandboxie and surf the net, all of the cookies, cached files, and downloaded files (including any malware that may sneak in), or even any entries written to the registry will actually be made within the Sandbox. Note that these files will also appear in your file system as well (for example, if you download a zip file to the desktop during a Sandboxed browser session it will appear on the desktop where you normally would expect it). However, in fact this zip file is only there virtually, and once you shut Sandboxie down (or empty the contents of the Sandbox) the file will no longer show on the desktop.

How To Use Sandboxie?

1) After installing Sandboxie, go to your start menu, then find for the Sandboxie program. Later on click on 'Sandboxie Control'. The program will then run on your system tray. The logo is like this:

2) Go to he system tray and right-click on it.



This will show up. Then go to 'DefaultBox'.

Then.... this menu bar will show up.
- Click 'Run Web Browser' and it'll launch your default web browser.

- Click 'Run Email Reader' and it will launch either Outlook Express or Thunderbird or any other email programs that you use.

- Click 'Run Any Program' and you can choose what program you want to run on Sandboxie.

- Click 'Run From Start Menu' and you can run any program from inside your Start Menu.

- Click 'Run Windows Explorer' and your windows explorer will run. (Btw, not Internet Explorer ok) It's your My Documents or My Computer... you got it? Great

So after using Sandboxie, you have to click on 'Terminate Programs'... but you have to always remember to Recover the things that you want before Deleting the contents!! (Take Note).

If you still don't know how to use Sandboxie, just GOOGLE it up or you can just ask me.

You can download the trial version for 30Days. After the trial period, a pop-up box will always remind you that your trial period for 30Days are over. So just wait for 5seconds and you are good to go again. =)

*It's only 0.96MB, so don't worry about it taking up a big junk of your memory space.

Download Sandboxie Now

Have you downloaded Sandboxie yet? If yes, you can now go and uninstall all your anti-virus, anti-spyware and or of those software!! LoL

Hey, I'm just joking ok. You'll will still need those softwares for security purposes.


P.S: Hope this software recommendation from me will help you experience a better and tighter security for your computer and save you some money on repairs?

P.P.S: If this software helped you out a lot, in return, I'll appreciate if could write me a Comment or Testimonial. =)

Foxit PDF Reader Alternative To Adobe Acrobat Reader

At some point, we've sure stumbled across a .PDF (Portable Document File) on the Internet or from anywhere else for our work or assignments and most of us will use Adobe Acrobat Reader to read this files.

As for me, you too are tired of Adobe Acrobat Reader taking up almost 23 MB of disc space, always asking for updates and not providing the swift performance?

I would like to introduce to you - Foxit PDF Reader, a product from foxitsoftware.com.

What I like about Foxit PDF Reader is that the download size is only 2.55 MB which is a fraction of Adobe Acrobat Reader 23 MB size. It's breezing-fast when comes to launching the software without any delay. You are not forced to an annoying splash window displaying the company logo, author names, etc.

Benefits:

• Supports all the standard documents.
• Create snapshots from a selected portion of the page.
• Fill interactive form.
• Import/Export forms.
• Save the PDF forms you fill out.
  
• Easily adding bookmarks (providing the PDF's security settings allow it).
• Draw graphics.
• Highlight Texts.
• Build-in Tabs to view multiple PDFs.
• Type text and make notes on a PDF document and then print out or save the annotated document.
• Text converter: You may convert the whole PDF document into a simple text file.
• High security and privacy: Foxit Reader highly respects the security and privacy of users and will never connect to the Internet without users' permission while other PDF readers often silently connect.

The new Version 2.3 build 2825 now even supports many media formats including audio and video.

What are you waiting for?? Download Foxit PDF Reader


P.S: Hope you make a smart choice and switch to Foxit PDF Reader rather then the bulky Adobe Acrobat Reader. =)

P.P.S: If this recommendation was usefull to you, I would appreciate it if you could leave me a Comment.

Reviews On Web Browsers I Personally Use

Here are the web browsers I personally use or used before...

1. Flock Browser
Flock integrates social networking and media services including Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Flickr, Blogger, and a lot more. When you log into any of the supported social services, Flock will automatically activate these services within its features.

Flock contains functionality that advises when friends have updated their profile, uploaded photos or other published items relevant to the user. Flock allows media sharing via drag and drop, photo uploading, and a built-in blog editor for posting from anywhere on the web.

I have not used all the functions that are available in Flock but I enjoy using it a lot.

The Flock browser is available as a free download, and supports Windows, Mac and Linux platforms.

You can go HERE to download Flock Browser or to get more info.

To get some guide using Flock Browser, click HERE.

2. Mozilla Firefox 2
I've been using Firefox for almost 3 years now and I don't really have any complains, except the memory leakage when you leave in on for some time. I will have to restart the browser again to settle the problem.

I can also customize firefox to my own liking and how I want it to look like.

Firefox is my main web browser and I use a lot of the addons that are available.

Download Firefox 2.

3. Mozilla Firefox 3 beta 5 (Portable Version)
I have nothing much to say much about this as it is still in beta and I haven't faced any problems using it. It's faster then Firefox 2 and there are quite a lot of new features.

I'm using the portable version is because most of the addons that I normally use are not compatible yet. So I use the portable version, which doesn't require installation.

Download Mozilla Firefox 3 beta 5 (Portable Version).

4. Opera 9.2
I only use this browser for fast browsing. I like the way the graphics are being displayed on Opera compared to any other browsers. This is due to their rendering engine - Presto.

Opera has a lot of built-in features. See it HERE.

Download Opera 9.2.

5. Internet Explorer 7
If you're using IE 6, please upgrade it now to IE 7 !!! IE 6 is really OUTDATED.

For Internet Explorer, I don't have much to say as I'm not a fan of it. So no review here. Hahaha... It's very slow.

Download Internet Explorer 7.

6. Safari 3.1
Safari is a Mac-based web browser. I only used Safari for around 2 weeks then I uninstalled it. This is because it lacks of flexibility to customize it as I like. Even Mac users prefer using Firefox to Safari. LOL

Although it looks good and fast, but it comes in a very large file - 18.62MB !!!

Download Safari 3.1.


So for your info, I currently have 5 web browsers on my laptop but I'm only using 4 of them. Guess which one I'm not using. =)


P.S: I hope the reviews of web browsers are usefull to you.

P.P.S: Don't forget to write down your answer on which web browser I'm not using in the Comment box. =)

New Blog Makeover

Hey guys, finally I've finish with my blog makeover.

There are still some functions that are not in use yet and I need more time to finish it so just be patience la. For example the links on the far top right hand corner - the RSS Feed link I didn't add the full link yet.

I also added a HOME navigation tab at the top, so it'll be easier for people to get back to my home page rather then clicking the back button or entering my home URL again.

One thing I noticed is that the title for the post is a bit out la and I have no clue how to fix it. You'll notice the problem when my title is too long and goes into the second line. It's not very obvious la and it didn't overlap one another, so I'll just let it be la.

If you guys scroll down till the bottom of the page, you'll see Copyright 2008 | .......... Cool right?!?!

And as u guys can see, I've add a chat box so you guys can chat in there or do whatever you want in there... but please no spamming !! =)
