Last night before I went to bed, I wrote a tweet saying I had an idea and it had something to do with Twitter and a projection. Well, you know those clocks that project the time onto a wall or a ceiling? Well what if their was a device that connects to your Twitter account and projects the feed of the people you are following onto the ceiling or the wall? Wouldn’t that be cool?
Though you would not be able to tweet from it, obviously, but you can at least see what’s going on in the Twitter world, you can view the tweets from the people you follow, you can have hash tag sets, so if someone write a hash tag for News or something. It would also show your mentions too. So you could just lay in bed and look at the ceiling and watch the Twitter would.
Well, I thought it was a neat idea anyways…
I been trying a bunch of programs, like Handbreak, Videora, WinFF, Media Coder, all that which will convert AVI files into a format the iPhone can read, well so far none of them are working. Every time I try to add the video to the phone, iTunes says this phone can’t play this video on this phone or something like that. The format is like .MOV, .M4V, .MPEG4. I tried all of these formats and I can’t get any of them work! I’ve tried tutorials online that tell me how to convert .AVI video files to a format that the iPhone can read and play, so far they don’t work.
Now I am starting to think that there may be either something wrong with the phone, or an setting. I had videos that I had converted with Videora before and they work just fine, but this was a while ago. I wanted to add another video and I used Videora to convert them, and yes, everything was done the exact same way as before, and it wont play on the phone! I have no idea what I am doing wrong.
Any ideas?
Did you download a audio file and/or a video in a format you may or may not have seen before? You try them, but they don’t work on your media players you have installed. Did you try VideoLan VLC Media Player? VLC Media Player is a free, open source that supports large number of codecs, sure I can list them all, but there is just way to many! But, the people at VideoLAN has created a page for you that lists them all that are supported by VLC. You can check that out here. I decided to create a little review about VLC, because I have asked a few people about VLC and they never heard of it, but they didn’t know that it can play just about every type of media format.
Did you just buy a really nice surround sound system? or even that new Plasma or LED TV? And what wondering how to set these up to give you the most optimal sound and video as possible? Well I gathered a couple great websites that will show you in detail and as well as many other features to set up your really wicked sweet new home theater you been wanting to install.
Yes you heard right, I’m going to be showing you a way to tweet from Google Talk and have your latest tweets show in your Google Talk status. Using Google Talk might be a really good way to tweet to Twitter if your at work or maybe just have that option available to you. You can also have Google Talk display your latest tweet in the status. How can you do this? TwiTalker & Twitter2gTalk
I recently started a weight loss plan and figured what could be a good way to keep track of your weight loss. I searched for websites that are based around this and while there are many of these sites, I decided to try Traineo, which helps you keep track of your weight lost as well as motivated. I enjoyed the site so much ,I decided to do a review.
Traineo is a free server, they do, however, have a paid version called “Plus” for $9.99/month and a “1to1” version for $49.99/month.
A few months ago, I wrote a post about Usernames being taken. I did forget to mention Knowem? Which is really an amazing user name check, they check over 350 sites. So Instead of added it to the old post, I decided to create a small review.
The first thing you see when you visit the site is the incredible easy and simple design that makes searching for your usernames a snap. They have over ten categories for checking your username, such as: microblogging, blogging, bookmarking, music, photos, etc. This is really awesome for checking to see if your username is taken from any of these websites.
