After the success of it’s browser in the browser market, Google has come up with a new update. Now you can add themes to your Google Chrome browser. If you don’t have Google Chrome, download it here. I am using it since it was launched and I find it very convenient and no nonsense browser though it has a few bugging bugs.

Downloads :

Google Chrome

Google Chrome Themes

What is it? : There are many sites that allow users to download YouTube videos. But there is one common complaint among all, the downloaded video is saved in an FLV format. Then in order to convert the video to play on a Media Player, you need to buy a software by paying big bucks. I just found an amazing site that downloads the video in WMV format or MP3 format (audio) so that you don’t have to shell out your hard earned money on softwares. This service is a bit on the slower side than others because it first downloads the video to it’s servers and then converts it into the format you have requested.

How To Use : It’s as simple as learning ABC. Just go to this site http://www.kissyoutube.com/watch?v=*****

Replace the *** with the video number.

Eg : Suppose you want to see Samsung Mobile Phones video, just replace the *** with fXtoi7igt8k.

Done, now enjoy your videos in the format you need. Enjoy! Do keep your comments flowing in.

The basic thing needed for running Internet are browsers. Internet and browsers are a team, like Romeo and Juliet. When you go for a PC, you get Internet Explorer added, from the Microsoft’s stable. If you go for a Mac, you get Safari. People start using it and get accustomed to it very soon. Then, they seldom change the browsers. In fact, some people don’t even update them for the fear of losing their control over the browser. Today, in this small post, I will tell you which browsers you can opt for just in case you are looking for a ‘change’.

1. Mozilla Firefox

Intro : Since the so called “Browser Wars” came to an end, Firefox (FF) is on the top of the charts of alternate browsers. The flagship product of Mozilla has been liked by all the users who switched to it. One of the best things of FF is that you can customize the way you want. Add a few themes, change the icons, throw in some GreaseMonkey scripts and voila!, you just got a new browser. FF traces its lineage back to the original Netscape browser. Firefox was designed for simplicity, security and the feature to make it customizable as there are thousands of extensions available. It also has its own mail, the Mozilla Thunderbird. All these applications are open source.

Features: Own Google based search, RSS headlines, Email via Thunderbird, Skinnable, Phishing Filter, Extremely Customizable.

Import: All settings, bookmarks and preferences from Internet Explorer, Opera, Netscape and Chrome.

2. Opera

Intro : Opera is another browser that has managed to weather the “Browser Wars” since its release in 1996. This browser should get credits for its constant innovation which has evolved this into a mighty powerhouse. Users prefer Opera because of its fast response time and amazing speed. This browser is now a full-fledged internet suite with e-mail, web, news and with a treasure box full of features for basic as well as experienced ones. Opera has now started attracting the mobile users by launching Opera Mini. It can be used on any phone that supports Java. The good thing is that nowadays the basic phones support Java.
