Splicd Skips Straight to the Point with YouTube Videos [YouTube] 29 September 2008 at 5:00 pm by admin

Web site Splicd creates custom links to embedded YouTube videos that start and stop at any time you define, allowing you to skip straight to the good part and avoid the rest. Let’s say, for example, you’ve stumbled onto a gem on YouTube but had to suffer through 10 minutes of complete boredom to get there. You want to share the video with a friend, but you don’t want her to have to sit through the whole mess for 20 seconds of pure gold. Just paste the URL of the video into Splicd, give it your desired start and end time, and it generates a custom link that starts and stops the video where you told it to (like this one).


+ SpeedFan Monitors Your Hardware, Controls Fans [Featured Windows Download] By admin 17 September 2008 at 1:00 pm and have No Comments

Windows only: Free application SpeedFan monitors the fan speed, temperature, voltage, and more of the components inside your computer. That’s all fine and dandy, but the marquee feature of SpeedFan is that you can actually adjust the speed of your fans by tweaking the desired temperatures on supported systems. Keep in mind that SpeedFan is a power-users tool, and the temp inside your computer isn’t to be taken lightly. However, if you’re comfortable tweaking hardware settings, an app like SpeedFan can help keep your computer running quieter and give you a little more control over what’s happening with your computer’s innards. If you’ve used SpeedFan in the past, share your experience in the comments. Mac users, check out previously mentioned smcFanControl.
