Conference talk is one of most often used feature in internet. Users wish to have conference talk with their friends and family online. Now a days most of us are using GTalk. One of the limitations in GTalk is, we can’t do conference talk in GTalk. This always force the users to use Yahoo. I still wonder why don’t Gtalk support conference talk?

There is a way to do a conference in GTalk. This can be achieved by launching multiple instances of GTalk. GTalk allows us to launch multiple GTalk instances (this is not being supported by yahoo). Do the following to get multiple instances.

Way 1: To edit existing Google Talk shortcut

1. Right click on the Google Talk shortcut.
2. On the contextual menu, click on Properties.
3. Go to Shortcut tab on Properties window.
4. On the Target textbox, add in the /nomutex to the end of the line so that it looks like the following. “c:\program files\google\google talk\googletalk.exe” /nomutex or you can simply copy and paste the above syntax and replace the original.
5. Click on OK.

Way 2: To create a new shortcut for Google Talk

1. Right-click on the desktop or anywhere you want to place the GTalk shortcut.
2. Select New on the right click context menu.
3. Then select Shortcut.
4. Copy and paste the following line to the text box when prompted to type the location of the item: “c:\program files\google\google talk\googletalk.exe” /nomutex
5. Click on Next.
6. Give the shortcut a proper name (e.g. Google Talk or Google Talk Multiple)
7. Click OK until you are done.

Now you can launch multiple instances of GTalk by clicking your newly created/modified GTalk icon.

I 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.

Versatile online file converter

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.

Recently I came across a site which provides us a smart utility which converts the Flash Video / FLV file (YouTube’s videos,etc) to MPEG4 (AVI/MOV/MP4/MP3/3GP) file online.

Yes you can convert your online movie clips to video files without using a third party software. vixy.net offers this service for free.

This service allows you convert a Flash Video / FLV file (YouTube’s videos,etc) to MPEG4 (AVI/MOV/MP4/MP3/3GP) file online. It is using a compressed domain transcoder technology (outline in Japanese). It converts FLV to MPEG4 faster and less lossy than a typical transcoder.

When you submit an url, it will download and convert to the video format. Then you can download the converted file.

FLV to MPEG4 Conveter engine is now OpenSource.

Just copy and paste your Youtube link (or others); select the output format and start the conversion. Wait for the file to be converted and download it.

Enjoy!!!
