It is illegal to download copyrighted materials.

Graboid

I don't know if you're like me but I love checking out videos online. There are several good places to share videos of movies and TV shows but I recently discovered a program that lets you download videos for free. It's called graboid http://www.graboid.com/ and it is very easy to use. You have to have windows though no problem for this Apple user as I like to run WinXP Pro virtually via Fusion. Anyway just download graboid and install. It will ask you to setup a new account (free) and you have to enter your email. I like to set up free extra email accounts at mail.com for this purpose. Then after you log on search for the video you want and download it. It downloads very fast. Like downloading a Veoh video. Once it is downloaded, click on it to locate the video. Then you can move it where you want. There are two problems with Graboid. 1. You only get 4GB a month to download what if you want more you have to pay them. You can work around this by creating new accounts, though that would be dishonest. 2. At the free level you can only download videos that are smaller than 2GB at a time. This means you can not download some of the HD movies. And I just figured out a new feature: you can watch the video by streaming it before you download it. That way if you don't like the quality or you just want to watch it on you PC you can maintain your download allotment by not downloading the video.

Downloading copyrighted material is illegal.

Wow a whole new frontier

I am experimenting with commercializing my daughter's blog. I just want to see what happens if we ad ads. I am going to do that to this site as well.

Long lost video found!

When I was a kid they used to show this enlightening commercial for CoffeeMate non-dairy creamer. I thought this guy was cool. He was visiting his friend in California who let stay in his apartment. What a jet setter! Notice he can speak without opening his mouth. His most inner thoughts can be heard. "Carnation makes it... Worth a try!"
