You know what, I think I just found the perfect online shopping website. I was surfing the net for a digital camera and stumbled upon this website and guess what I found? A list of various online retail store that has a different price tags on the same products that you want to buy. Now you can compare prices and think twice before you spend some extra cash that you can actually save for your gas or whatever.

    If you are thinking about buying a Dvd recorder then I strongly encourage you not to buy this Dvd Recorder. It cost me around 150$ and its been only 2 months I bought it. Only two months already the damn thing started to act like an idiot. The problem with this dvd recorder is that its not strong enough to record everyday programs. Few days ago I was recording a 20 min show manually and this error messeage popped up saying "There is an ERROR on the Dvd Program" and then the DVD player gets shut down. I lost my frigging video clips instantly. This problem didn't happen once but four times in one week. I am really pissed that a 150$ DVD recorder can go down so quickly. The battery and the remote control that comes with this recorder sucks big time. Please keep my word and don't buy this recorder if you are doing daily recording whether manually or timer.

    Firefox Plugins: Flashblock & Download Helper

    This article is for those people who are really annoyed by Flash ads or Flash Videos or anything that involves flash. If you never used Firefox browser before then why not give it a try? I think Firefox is way better than any other web browser on the net. I deal with online videos and online music everyday and every time I see those flash ads popping on my pc screen I just feel like blow up the f**king website. Well, thanks to Firefox, I have finally found a solution for blocking those Flash ads. The plugins is called Flashblock. If you are already using Firefox then download and install the adons on your browser and restart it. Let me give you an example of how it looks like before and after installing flashblock.


    I went to this online gaming website name Addictinggames and as you can see on the bottom picture that there is a flash picture on the right hand side. This is before installing Flashblock on Firefox.

    Same website Same Flash after installing Flashblock. You can clearly see that the flash has been blocked.

    Thats not all you can even right click on that flash and you can chose the option "Remove this flash" or even "Allow flash from this website". This is an awesome adon that helps me surf the net faster.

    -----
    This next addons will only work if you already installed FLASHBLOCK.

    This plugin is for downloading flash videos from any and I really mean any website that has flash videos. If you already got firefox then just install this addons on your firefox browser:
    Download Helper
    . After Installing restart your browser and then go to youtube or any website that allows flash video.

    That is an example on how you can use Download Helper. All you got to do is Right Click > Download Helper > DOWNLOAD LINK.

    Now if you don't see the download link then I suggest you play the video for few seconds then reload your video page and retry the whole process. That way Download Helper will be able to detect the video link.

    Its EASY and save you lot of time. You don't have to copy the link and go to another website to find the download link. It can be done all in one page with one cool addons.

    I hope this helps.


    New Beginning

    Cool, I just started a new blog. Lets see how many days I can keep up this new blog. This is not first time I have started blogging. Let me introduce on how I got into blogging. My friend Sunny from Desinotes helped me making my own blog. My first blog was hosted by wordpress and I named my blog crappyblogger. When I started blogging I was desperate of making money because I had lost my job and I seriously having a hard time finding new jobs. I was really not into blogging because it involved too much writing and to tell you the truth I am one lazy big ass. So I blogged 2-3 months then I got bored. I then started a video blog which I used for entertainment purpose. Few months later, I finally found a real life job getting paid 10$ an hour and then my life went back to normal. I recently started to visit other peoples blog and really loving all the interesting articles that people write this days. Hopefully I will be able to level up my position with those people. Keep visiting my blog every week and hopefully you will see some new cool articles on the front page. ;)
