YouTube Tool

Recently, I create a video and uploaded it to YouTube (Envision’s very own Jobst Elster competing in the Ironman Florida competition!) but then somehow managed to lose the original file in an unfortunate laptop incident.  YouTube does not allow you to download the root file again – even as the editor of the video.  In a moment of desperation, I found a really neat site - ConvertYouTube.com - that does just that and it couldn’t be easier to use.  You enter the URL for the YouTube video you want and then select the file type you would like to download it as.  You can choose between Windows, Mac, iPod, Mobile, MP3, and Flash.  What a great idea…

Contribute to Charity while you IM

There are many ways to give back, but some rare opportunities require absolutely no effort and therefore fall in the “no-brainer” category.  One way is through Windows Live Messenger i’m Initiative.  Almost everyone has a Messenger IM account with Windows and you can earn money for one of the social organizations on their list every time you initiate a conversation on Messenger.  It only takes a few seconds to sign up and it makes it very easy to do your good deed for the day!
