A Versatile Free Online File Converter

June 4th, 2007 No comments

ZamzarI have been searching for a free online file audio/video conversion utility.

Recently I posted about vixi.net under the same context.

I found a new website which provides Free Online File Conversion.

www.zamzar.com

Zamzar supports conversion between wide varieties of different file formats.

The best part is, Zamzar supports a huge set of file formats (document/image/audio/video).

File conversion is a simple 4 step process.

Once the conversion is done, an email will be sent with the URL where we can find the converted file. Also the converted file will be stored for 24 hours from the time the email is sent.

The limitation is, you can can convert a file of size upto 100 MB. But still I feel that this is reasonable.

You can also directly convert any Youtube/Google Video files from this Free Online utility.

Optical Illusion

Optical Illusion is defined that something that you think you see, but which is not really there. In other words, Optical Illusion is characterized by visually perceived images that are deceptive or misleading.

I collected a set of such images from net.

Take the action now

HelpA big flood hit a village. Everyone was evacuated and fled for safety, except for one man who said, “God will save me; I have faith”.

As the water level rose, a jeep came to rescue him but he refused help and said, “God will save me; I have faith”.

As the water level rose further, he went up to the second story, and a boat came to help him. Again he refused to go saying, “God will save me; I have faith”.

The water kept rising and finally he climbed to the roof. A helicopter came to rescue him, but he said, “God will save me; I have faith”.

Finally he drowned. When he came face to face with his Maker he angrily commented, I have complete faith in you. Why did you ignore my prayers and let me drown?

The Lord replied, who do you think sent the jeep, the boat, and the helicopter?

Moral of the story: We must be accountable for what we do and not blame others for our shortcoming. We have to take the necessary action to help ourselves, rather than waiting, wishing and wondering what is happening in life. Nobody will help you unless you first decide to help yourself.

Take action right now and do not waste any minute. We are responsible for our own failure or success!!

Making the beginning is one third of the work

An Amazing Audio Work

June 2nd, 2007 No comments

Recently my friend Vijayanand sent the following link.

Use headphones to listen to this audio work.

This is really amazing. I felt as if I was in the barber shop for a while. Especially when the person whispered near to the ear I was about to remove the headphones. It is really scary at that moment. And it is too natural when they covered the head with a plastic bag.

This audio work proves that we can realize the surround sound effect without Dolby 5.1 speakers.
