Answer: Rather than just using one download connection to download a video, use ten.

YouTubeFreeDownloader.com - Fastest Way to Download YouTube Videos

YouTubeFreeDownloader.com opens (TEN) separate download connections/workers that are each assigned to a different part of the video to download. So each of the ten workers download a different part of the video at the same time.

This takes advantage of YouTube’s initial speed burst that YouTube sends out at the beginning of the watch request. This results in download speeds ten times faster, in excess of 5MB/sec. Ten download threads will most likely max out most users broadband pipes. In some tests, with excellent broadband, testers have actually exceeded 10 megabytes per second with full videos being downloaded in less than five seconds.

The technical name for the multi-connection streaming technology is known as pseudo video streaming. Pseudo video streaming is where a video player makes a watch request to start a video streaming from a specified section of a video. To learn more about pseudo video streaming please visit:

Chatwing Releases Chat Box Helpful for Friend Seekers

Chat applications were created for many known purposes. Perhaps the most famous purpose is friendship. Through chatrooms, people can search for new friends that can be turned into love interests. If Internet will be divided into a pie, these chatrooms will take up a large percentage. Chatwing, an advanced chat widget, is dedicated to the pursuit of an improved chatting experience.

Chatwing operates with basic simplicity, yet this chat box is powerful enough to reach many people within a given time. Since it is a free chat widget, it can be embedded to any blog or website. The more active the blog chats, the greater the connection is.

It has been proven that Chatwing fares well in blogs specializing on people connection. People who are looking for friends used Chatwing often, delving in different kinds of topics. Chatwing also has a Facebook log-in option. Through this, people can exchange profile information with relative ease. Sending out Facebook invitations through a chat box has never been easier.

WordPress Remains the Preferred Blog CMS despite Recent Malware Attacks, Maintains Blogging-oriented Sites

“You should use WordPress to make your website or blog,” Startingablog.com advises. “It accounts for over 25% of new websites on the internet and the majority of self-hosted blogs.” WordPress is an open source CMS, which has endeared itself to many a blogger and web developer for its ease of use. As of the middle of 2011, about 15 million websites all over the Internet were powered by WordPress. It started out as a blogging platform, but nowadays, it’s so flexible and adaptable that it can be used for any kind of site.

The security issue that has just plagued some WordPress sites can be attributed to the site owners themselves. Once upon a time, any security breach could be blamed on the platform itself, but in cases of hacked sites nowadays, the fault is with the administrator or the owner. These days, systems and platforms are so user-friendly that anybody can learn to start and maintain a blog or website. For this reason, it is of the utmost importance that beginners learn from trustworthy sites and correct tutorials. With sources that do not bother to include the minute details, site owners and bloggers manage to create vulnerabilities without intending to. Many professional web designers agree that WordPress remains to be better than the rest of the content management systems even after this recent attack.

Those who want to learn how to make a blog will find many sources commending WordPress for being simple to use. Tom Jones of Startingablog.com states, “WordPress is great because it allows you to make a blog without having to write any code or do any technical geeky work. Basically it is a click and install system.” That is something that many non-techies will find relieving. “Plus WordPress is free,” Jones adds to the statement, citing another important quality of WordPress that many blogging beginners will find comforting. The Startingablog.com team does what it can to educate its users on WordPress, frequently updating its blog to issue more tips or report on news regarding changes or upgrades.

The general consensus gleaned from blogging in-the-knows is that WordPress is still presently the preferred CMS. To make sure that site security is not compromised, those learning how to create a blog should get their guidelines from trusted sources.

6 months ago, Smivi launched a smart video search engine. The original Smivi had video search results crawled from all over the web—YouTube, ESPN, CNN and virtually any other website that hosts video content.

Smivi 2.0: Google Meets Twitter for Videos

The flipside of Smivi 2.0 is a social experience. Not only can users find and watch videos, users will be able to share those videos with their friends and followers. Users will now be able to socialize with friends—or anyone, really—by following them, commenting on videos and even chatting with them in real-time.

Smivi is now more than just a video search engine. It’s a platform for people to search, share, and watch videos. Search is one component of the entire experience.

“What we’re trying to do with Smivi is provide users with the best search, social, and viewing experience for videos. Smivi 2.0 is a huge step forward for us,” says Danny Witters, founder of Smivi.

Along with these additional features, the new site comes with a redesign. From the homepage to the video player, the site looks and feels different.

“We focused on improving the user’s overall interactive experience. The new site is a lot more user friendly,” says Danny Witters.

Downtweet Releases Tweet Search Application for Twitter Users

Tweets are like simple announcements made by an individual. These short announcements take place online and many people keep on doing them frequently. It is evident that most of these tweets are just simple expressions, opinions, and plain daily activities. However, some tweets are informational and can be great topics for any discussions.

Twitter is so massive that some tweets may get lost in the entire flurry. This is where Downtweet steps in. Downtweet is a Twitter widget meant to discover tweets that may be helpful for certain individuals. Twitter users are divided into several categories, and passive users take a large portion.

Passive Twitter users do not use Twitter on a frequent basis. They don’t tweet many times per day, or they don’t tweet at all. Some of them joined Twitter out of peer pressure and social experimentation. Downtweet caters to these users, granting them the opportunity to search for the best tweets of their choices.

In Downtweet, tweets are divided according to categories. Streams of the tweets are always updated, prior to the category being searched. This makes Twitter search more fun and organized. The best categories in Downtweet are business, comedy, food, gossip, sports, and tweets related to some famous celebrities. The tweets are also clickable so users can discover the sources and continue to learn more.

Downtweet can also be embedded to any blog and according to some bloggers it has more potential compared to other Twitter applications out there. Based on Downtweet’s uphill visibility climb, users expect to have more developments in the coming months.

The Most Retweeted Brands on Twitter

Track Social used its proprietary Social Media Leaderboard technology to analyze Retweet activity for major brands on social media.

Savvy consumers are often wary of brands spamming across the social media platforms. But they’re increasingly open to receiving content from people they know. That’s why Retweeting – in which a Twitter follower forwards someone else’s Tweet to his or her own set of Twitter followers – is so potentially valuable for brands.

It is also valuable because a Tweet can get Retweeted by a follower, then any of its followers can Retweet that original Tweet, and so there is the potential for a cavalcade of viral messaging that turns a brand into the next @AngiesRightLeg.

Not only does it mean the content gets self-distributed to an exponentially wider audience, but the messaging is being delivered to consumers by people they trust, making them significantly more likely to engage with content.

The concept of sharing is embedded in all social networks, and much of the internet, however in Twitter it is far more implicit to the very concept of the platform.

Track Social has dug deep into its Twitter analytics to find out just which Twitter accounts see the most Retweet action per day. Lo and behold the Retweet Leaderboard:

Retweets Per Day For Brands

1. Joyce Meyer Ministries
2. ESPN
3. Joel Osteen Ministries
4. Miami Heat
5. Breaking News
6. NBA
7. CNN Breaking News
8. Los Angeles Lakers
9. Chicago Bulls
10. BBC Breaking News

At First Glance: Sports dominate this leaderboard.

[Note: Track Social tracks Brands only, not individuals. For more Track Social Leaderboards go here ]

Twitter is all about spreading the latest news, fast. That’s why Twitter’s up-to-the-minute headline stream is the perfect medium for sports and news. No surprise then that of the top ten (non-celebrity) brands on Twitter, five were sports-related, and ESPN, the leading sports news cable network, came in at number two.

Engaging with media-addicted sports fans is perfectly suited to Twitter’s format. Besides offering an instant portal to ESPN content through headline links, photos and video posts, ESPN makes sure to generate fan interaction – and get the Retweets flowing – by regularly asking followers to jump into the conversation. Not such a difficult task given that participation is written into sports fans’ DNA.

ESPN’s Tweets run the gamut from the sublime: “He’s 5’9 and DUNKS over anything” to, yes, the ridiculous: “What would make for the best #OfficeCombine drill? Reply with the hashtag #OfficeCombine. We’ll RT (retweet) our favorites.”

Keeping fans close to the action – with scores, plays, trades, and highlights – is what Twitter does best. NBA team Miami Heat came it at number 4 while the Chicago Bulls showed up at number 9. Both teams post upwards of 15-25 posts per day and load them up with pictures and player videos: “Joakim Noah dunks to record his 1st career triple double http://bit.ly/btvpotw.”

In just the past few years, Twitter has stolen the thunder from radio stations and television news broadcasters to become everyone’s primary go-to place for the most current events. Where did most people find out about Whitney Houston’s death? That’s right – Twitter. Three news organizations on the Leaderboard – Breaking News (an aggregate of many different news feed sources), CNN, and BBC Breaking News rank in at numbers 5, 7, and 10 respectively. These sources tend to rely more on the content of the stories themselves to motivate Retweeting, allowing followers to share with their followers, and more often than not, allowing these Tweets to become trending topics.

But perhaps the most surprising entry in the top ten comes in at number one: Joyce Meyer Ministries is the evangelical preaching and publishing organization of Fenton, Missouri-based preacher Joyce Meyer.

Catering to a largely female following, the posts (about four to six per day) range from cautionary wisdom: “The sooner you learn that feelings are fickle, the better off you’ll be” to motivational exhortation: “If you’re too busy for God then it’s time to change your schedule.” They also include the occasional Bible verse and update on where Joyce will be appearing next.

Given the lack of proprietary content coming through her feed (there’s nothing particularly exclusive about the Psalms), the success of Meyers’ Twitter strategy tells us something about the attraction of social media platforms like Twitter. The real power of this technology is to allow a personality (who would otherwise never be able to engage with one of “the masses”) to speak directly into a person’s daily life.

And that should say something about the power of social media platforms like Twitter to erase the distance between “us” and “them.” Social media users are increasingly comfortable with, and, indeed, increasingly demand a level of personalized interaction. Not just from preachers, or celebrities, but from brands as well. Because the goal of all this technology really is to connect – not just to ideas or entertainment or “content” but to other people – in a meaningful way.

Make the connection – and the Retweets will follow.
