Category : how to, tools

Yes, we have done quite a few YouTube downloading how-tos in the past. Some of them still work, some don’t. The one which continues to work is the ever-updating awesome tool – KeepVid.com. But remember the good ol’ days of the javascript bookmarklet which used to make life so much easier. Well, the bookmarklet is back again.

And it’s called – PwnYouTube. Go drag and drop it on your bookmarks bar just as I did.

PwnYouTube Bookmarklet

Now when you visit a YouTube video, on the page, when you hit the bookmarklet, the menu option appears on top of the screen. Its on a yellow background, so I don’t think you’ll miss it. For your convenience, it looks like this.

Right click, and save as shown. Voila! Easy peasy!

Else, there is another alternative. Just append ‘pwn’ before the youtube video URL.

e.g. To download video:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66TuSJo4dZM, enter

http://www.pwnyoutube.com/watch?v=66TuSJo4dZM

You’ll be redirected to deturl.com, and there, you’ll find options to download it from SaveVid, YouDDL and KeepVid.

So there you go, happy downloading YouTube videos.

Google Image Hack

Google Image search is one of the most visited search engines. Be it searching for normal images we want for a project, or something we want to grace our desktop/laptop as a wallpaper. And more often than not, it is the latter. So, it is quite cumbersome when it comes to searching on Google Images for the appropriate sized – or in other words, wallpaper sized images from the huge list of thumbnails. It is a further pain to sort out by clicking on each of them to verify if they are indeed good looking images in the full size, and if they are not pixelised.

The solution: a Google Image Search hack which allows Full size image results, no thumbnails whatsoever, for your full viewing pleasure. [ as shown in the pic above]

The link is here:

Google Image Ripper » Dear Computer,.

Enter your search keyword, choose your size – which ranges from icon to xxlarge to huge. Press “Rip Google” and voila. Just be prepared to be hit by a massive wall of wallpapers. And just for your viewing pleasure, I’ll attach a massive High Definition wallpaper of Inception. Of course, this one’s a thumbnail, so do click on it to enjoy it in full HD glory.
