Here is a great new service that I found – FLV Online Converter! The trick it does is convert a YouTube (or similar service) video into a downloadable file in the format of your choice! A screen cap of the conversion process is at right.
Although I’m a strong believer in online services, this is one neat tool that I’ll recommend to people who need an offline version of a YouTube video.
Of course, a prudent person would observe the rights of copyrighted material – right?
Talkster is one of those services that will cross the revolutionary threshold for many. With a clientless web-based platform, nearly any device can use the service. That is something that makes a jump in usability for many.
I agree with Om on this, as spam keeps growing in proportion to emails sent, we need a new way to send email.

Yup, taxes are criminal and we need serious reforms. I've always said that if you want to see a tax revolt, make withholdings illegal and have Americans write a tax check every payday. They'll revolt for sure. You don't miss what you never had.
Sen. @berniemoreno says voter ID and proof of citizenship are simply common sense.
