Episode #165
How can I burn YouTube and Google Videos on a CD? I tried a few times, and get the message, that the file is not supported by the Nero Burning device. It will not burn .FLV files either.

You have to convert the Flash files into something burnable. There are several ways to do this. I like vixy.net. You give it the url of the video you want to convert and it turns it into MPEG4 suitable for burning. All this takes time, of course, but it works!

XShelf enhances drag and drop in MacOS X by letting you “pause” drag and drop operations, as well as have multiple drag and drop operations in flight at once. You can drag files or folders from Finder into the shelf and they will sit there until you drag them out. Once you drag them out, the drag operation will finish as if XShelf were never involved. You may drag individual or multiple files or folders, as well as text clippings and URLs to XShelf. With XShelf, you no longer have to shuffle windows so that both the source and target of a drag and drop are onscreen at the same time.

There has always been a line between people who make movies and people who watch them. As movie watchers, many of us have no idea what goes into making a film and what takes place behind the scenes. For those who are interested in peeking behind the curtain, movie blog FirstShowing will keep you up to date on all the hot gossip from back lots, movie sets, and Hollywood bigwig offices. (It’s also a great place to find new teasers, trailers, and production stills.)
