Online Video Converter
Yesterday a classroom teacher asked for help ‘downloading’ a video from You Tube…Neil Diamond’s “Coming to America”…to use in class. I did a quick Google search and discovered vixy.net. At home last night, one of my Tweets suggested I use Zamzar to convert the file. I did try it and just needed to fill in a couple of blanks, The link was emailed to me , I downloaded the converted video and I now have a copy for the teacher to use for an educational purpose. Yes, at the moment, You Tube is accessible here at work, but she wants to show it in May. Who knows if it could be pulled up directly from You Tube at that time.

I converted the You Tube file to mov for the Mac. You are given choices in a drop down menu. It opens in QuickTIme.

You Tube is available at your work? How wonderful! For PC, I use the .mpg extension. Seems to work best for us.
