YouTube Downloads

Joanne just heard about this from an AAC (alternative augmentative communication) listserve.

In the past, I've spent hours trying to figure out how to download YouTube vids; but this new method takes seconds. Just substitute "kick" for "www." in the URL of the video you want to download (remember to knock off the "period after www").

For example, if you want to download the trailer to "Made for Each Other," go to:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7q55FwwZkns

and substitute "kick" for "www."

http://kickyoutube.com/watch/?v=7q55FwwZkns

Eleven formats are offered. I'm on a Mac G5 and MP4 worked great (I also downloaded an AVI; but I got a window telling me I needed an extra plug-in to play it). I didn't try FLV.

MOVIE NOTE: Yes, that's me in the red shirt, sitting at the bar, as Dan (Chris Masterson) walks by.
