How to download Youtube video tutorial

How to download youtube video (Click to enlarge the photo)

Its very easy to download youtube video. Just go the the website: http://keepvid.com/
At some point there will be a pop up that ask whether to trust this website. Tick yes.

1. Copy the url or website address from youtube
2. Paste it in the URL in the KeepVid website and click download
3. They will have around 4 options or more:
›› Download 3GP ‹‹ - Low Quality - 176x144
›› Download 3GP ‹‹ - Medium Quality - 176x144
›› Download FLV ‹‹ - Low Quality - 320x240
›› Download FLV ‹‹ - Medium Quality - 400x226
›› Download MP4 ‹‹ - High Quality - 480x360

I like this software because I can choose the video format and its very easy to use. I will usually choose the MP4 High Quality format. After that I will transfer the video to my HTC HD2 without converting the video. I use this method as I do not have any data plan in my phone and I only watch youtube directly when there is a wireless connection.

How to tilt the Samsung Syncmaster B2230 forward or backward tutorial

I read in their official website and from other users that this Samsung B2230 has a tilt function. However I was a little puzzled how to tilt the Samsung B2230. This is because the connector to the LCD look seamless and it does not look like it can budge. I tried pushing here and there but nothing move. On the first few attempts of pushing the lcd, it blink and there was no image. I could not find a solution on how does the other users manage to tilt the LCD. Was a little apprehensive that I will break the LCD after a few tries but in the end manage to tilt it. Enlarge the top photo to see the summary.

How to tilt the Samsung B2230.
-Stand in front of the LCD
-Right hand: Grip the Stand Connector (pink colour)
-Left hand: Grip the top of the lcd (green colour)
Stabilize the LCD by gripping the connector tightly with your right hand.
Using your left hand push the lcd backward bravely and carefully.

It look seamless like it wont budge. Picture shows that it tilt forward.

It wont budge if you tilt it incorrectly. Picture shows that it tilt backward.

Left picture shows that it tilt backward. Right picture shows that it tilt forward. Both shows the maximum view of tilting backward and forward.

HTC HD2 - Where to buy the casing and screen protector in Singapore

 HTC HD2 Barely There Cases. In the photo you notice that this casing protect the camera lense

I bought this HD2 case from Funan IT Mall. I couldnt find the casing in JB. Fearing that my new phone will get any scratches, I went into Singapore to find the casing. First destination is Funan IT Mall. There wasnt much choices there. They have those plastic/rubber type of casing which has a rectangular hole at the camera area. I notice that the camera of HD2 jut out a little and I was a little apprehensive getting those normal rubber/plastic texture casing. They cost about $12-15.

I then finally found this casing some where around the 1st or 2nd floor phone accessories shop. For your info there was a limited number of shops selling phone accessories at Funan IT Mall. In fact I notice that the business is monopolize by 1 or 2 shops.

In the shop they only have 2 choices of casing from Case Mate that also protect the camera lens. The price of the casing is really expensive at $42.90 (SGD) and there is strictly no discount. Compare to the official website of Case mate, they only cost $19.90 (USD).

I bought this expensive casing because its impact resistant, free screen protector and looks more reliable than the usual cheaper casing. However please note that the casing is very snug and hug tightly to the phone. This can be a problem if you wanted to change battery, reset the phone or take out the sd memory card. Just yesterday I have to force out the casing just to take out the battery when the phone hang.

Another reason I was at Funan IT Mall is because they have the original accessories of HD2. I did not buy their accessories as the design is rather disappointing. The authorize dealer of HD2 accessories only sell a normal transparent cover. However their leather case looks reliable.

 HTC HD2 Barely There Cases. You can also treat the casing as a mirror.

After buying the casing at Funan, I took the MRT and went to Toa Payoh for dinner. My heart sank when I see a few phone shops selling the HTC HD2 casing -those non branded rubber/plastic texture- for only $10 (SGD) with camera lense protection in various color. Conclusion is that if you do not mind getting those non branded casing with camera protection at cheap price, please proceed to Toa Payoh. But if you wanted something reliable then go for those casing with brand.

Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3000 Unboxing

While exploring Funan IT Mall in Singapore, I stumble on a Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3000 that I have wanted but which I did not purchase in Grex Multimedia shop in JB. I bought my Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3000 from Notebook.com Pte Ltd. They charge me $60 + 7% gov tax.

Previously I did not buy from Grex as it is price at RM195. If you do the maths, the one sold at Grex Multimedia is more expensive by approximately RM42. So i was happy at the good price that I get from Singapore. But beware although the keyboard is cheap (compare with Grex - other JB pc shop price might be cheaper), some of the accessories are still cheaper in Malaysia. For example challenger sold their 4gb SanDisk pendrive for $19 but in Malaysia its sold for RM30. So its best to do some home work if you have the time.

The front of the packaging

The description

It can support 30 foot range. The Blue track technology enable it to work on various surface.

Notice the white dot on the corner rite top side? It indicate when you need to change battery.

Both the keyboard and mouse is really beautiful. I also saw the Microsoft Wireless Desktop 5000. The shape and size is also fantastic. But since i have a budget, i stick with my Wireless Desktop 3000.


Both the keyboard and mouse each uses 2 battery size AA. In the packaging they have provided 4 Energizer batteries. The white color pendrive in the picture is the "Snap-in Mini-Transceiver" of the mouse and keyboard. I was told that the primary receiver of the keyboard is the mouse followed by the Transceiver. If you plan to be away and wanted to save battery then you can take out the transceiver and snap it into the mouse. There is also a battery symbol at the edge of the keyboard to indicate the battery level. So far I am happy with its performance. I like it that i can bring the mouse to my bed and I can control the computer at a distance.
