I know we have all been there, you have a folder full of files and you need to add something after the name of each of them. This is a task that most people choose to do the hard way, by renaming each file individually. However if you want a progr...

Welcome to the Site

This is a very central point for me. In other words here is where I try to put all of my media in one place. I hope to set up my own website at some point that will allow me to accomplish this better with a really good theme for video blogging (might be custom designed by me) and a page for Social Media. The while site will run off of a very modded version of wicket pixie. Stay tuned for more this summer. Also look for the twitter feed in the left side bar and the posts that are below are the same posts that are posted on my main site. I think this is a great place to gather your feeds into one and I love what Chris has done with it.

Pimp Out Safari Using Glims

I use Safari as my main web browser, with Firefox as a backup. Now I have nothing ageist Firefox at all, as a matter of fact I have it on my mac as a backup and for uploading youtube videos (the uploader crashes Safari). But, one thing I do wish Safari had is add-ons. Now, in this tutorial, I am going to be showing you how you can somewhat achieve this. I am going to be showing you who to use a program called Glims. Now, Glims is not going to give you add-ons like Firefox ha, but it will atlas o… Continue

Renaming Multiple Files at Once in OS X

I know we have all been there, you have a folder full of files and you need to add something after the name of each of them. This is a task that most people choose to do the hard way, by renaming each file individually. However if you want a program to rename all of the files for you, then you might have invested in some software that can do that kind of stuff. What I bet you didn't know though, is that you can do this for free on any installation of OS X. The application you will be using is ca… Continue

Translating Things for Free

Problem: you are surfing the internet and you come across a site that has the information you need, but it is in a language that you can't read.

Solution: Google Translator

In the video below I show you how you can take advantage of the free Google Translator, and its abilities to translate… well just about everything. You can translate text, or even enter the URL to an entire website and it will translate it all for free. Enjoy.

How to Download Youtube Videos

Have you ever wanted to download youtube videos to watch on your computer or ipod? Well it is a simple process that can easily be done a ton of different ways. However, for this video I am going to show you two and tell you about one.
The first tool I would like to mention is KeepVid. KeepVid is a very simple website that allows you to paste in a link to a youtube video and it will give you a link to download in either .mp4 or .flv format.
The next two that I am going to tell you about are MPEG… Continue

Hey... Glad you got teamviewer to work with the big file. Let me know if you need help with CSS, since I'm also learning that along with VB and C#. I'm a Programmer, by the way. Good luck! I also have teamviewer and I own the group for it on this forum, in case you want to join it.
