Youtube Downloader

I have always wanted to download all the youtube videos from my favorite videos in Orkut so that I dont have to download them all the time to watch/listen it.  There is this nice free tool which doesn’t contain spy ware or crap ware and it does the work.

I have ripped most of the videos in to mp3 from my orkut videos so if you do need any of the song from my list just shoot an email I will send it to you.

Portable apps is gr8

I was looking around for a U3 drive to buy and I found out there is an open source portable application loader called Portableapps which is gr8 and has all my favorite applications running directly from the drive.

It can even run from my mobile…:) I’m on my way to order a non U3 drive…

Yahoo Power User

Today I got an email from the Yahoo messenger team stating that I have fallen in to the category of power user usin yahoo messenger which basically means I stay online more often then other users and annoy my friends :) .

As a way to thank me for using Yahoo messenger they are providing me with these new features which I’m happy to accept. You can also find the benefits of being a power user @ the following link.

  • 24/7 customer care. Not interested I’m already a premium user I pay for service so I better get 24/7.
  • Exclusive Online Indicators. Nice features and I have already added the online indicator to my sidebar. Check it out its nice. I will have to test this feature since I don’t want bots to IM me using the link. It would have been if they have given me an encrypted URL that hides my User ID.
  • Get exclusive icons and VIP recognition from friends. Not really fun but fine.
  • Access to Yahoo messenger closed beta programs before it goes public which again I get since I’m a premium Yahoo mail user. Not fun here as well.

Things that I would like to receive from Yahoo for being a power user/premium mail user which I have been asking for a long time.

  1. No more ads in my Yahoo messenger.
  2. No more ads in any email that I receive from my contacts who don’t have a premium mail account.
  3. No ads anywhere period.
  4. Online chat log storage similar to Gtalk. Well this should be available to all users.

Yahoo Message Archive Decoder (Yammy)

I have always wondered why Yahoo didn’t implement a message archiver that exports the message and a search interface to search the log which Gtalk has been doing it for a long time.

This has been nagging me for a long time and today I finally found a free ware called YAMMY that converts all the message logs to individual html file. It doesnt have the search feature but at least I could back my messages now.

Its a very simple future that everyone needs but Yahoo denies the end users small wishes.

Talking about this I just remembered; When will Microsoft add the future to delete multiple book marks in IE.

Do you see it Microsoft – Yahoo are made for each other both deny the end user their small wishes.

I guess this song will be an apt situation song.
