I'm not sure how useful this is to the list members but if you come
across a
YouTube video and would like to download it to your hard drive, then
this is
an easy way to do it:

Simply select the video to download and insert the word 'kiss' in the
URL.
For example, the URL for the YouTube Guided Tour is
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcZ-bAZtC34&feature=dir 

To download the video type 'kiss' immediately before Youtube, similar to
this: http://www.kissyoutube.com/watch?v=dcZ-bAZtC34&feature=dir  

When the download page appears scroll down to the bottom of the page and
you
will see the download link. 

If you want to convert the FLV file to another format visit
http://vixy.net/
a free online converter. Bingo! No need to download third part software.

 Regards

Craig

We are slowly looking to caption youtube videos via Overstream

fed into our AT elearning resources at www.abilitynettraining.org
