Namecheap November Coupon

Nov 1, 2007 Author: Kevin | Filed under: Internet

Hey everyone, the new coupon for November is “Jiveturkey” without the quotes. It gives you a nice little discount on new domains. Everyone should sign up for namecheap because they are the best place to register in my opinion. I get ALL my domains through them.

Once again, the Namecheap November Coupon is Jiveturkey

EDIT: I have been informed that Jiveturkey is not currently working and the new Namecheap November Coupon is “GOBBLEGOBBLE

Thanks to Sree Prakash for the quick update.

OiNK Admin Busted - OiNK Users Could Be Next

Oct 25, 2007 Author: Kevin | Filed under: File Sharing, Internet

If you’re anyone you have probably heard about OiNK one time or another. While the news claimed that OiNK was the first place pre-release albums show up, they were wrong, they usually show up on private ftps, dumpsites, or sites in .eu/.us. However, people grab them from there and curry them over to OiNK.

Anyway, the owner got arrested two days ago in his home in England. This will prove to be a major blow to the P2P piracy scene. I’m sure another site will be back up, if not already, to fill the void left by OiNK.

According to the OiNK site, all users of the site are currently being investigated. While most people, including me, believe this is just a scare tactic, it would suck if it was not. In Canada, we pay a tax on all recordable media which allows us to download/upload mp3s and not have it be illegal. That is why the RIAA hates Canada. Other countries are not so lucky. Apparently 50% of the OiNK members are in the United States, where the RIAA operates.

I have compiled a list of great resources for the latest information related to the OiNK raids!

Download Mp3s from Myspace (WORKING)

Oct 23, 2007 Author: Kevin | Filed under: General, Internet, Myspace

Do you remember the good old days where the download link actually worked on myspace? How else are we going to get the new preview songs? Why should you have to log back into myspace just to hear it?

Most of the myspace mp3 downloaders have broken and no longer work. However, MyspaceGrab currently have a way to work around this and allows you to download mp3s.

I didn’t link the site to keep myself out of trouble, however a simple google search will help you find it!

Happy Downloading

I have tried many different paid and free programs that allow you to download off youtube and others. The biggest problem I ran into is most of them have not worked half the time. If you know of a tool that works best feel free to let me know.

The best online tool, by far, is KeepVid. They allow you to enter the url for pretty much any online video site and allow you to download the .flv to your computer. You will the need a program to convert the .flv to another format or a .flv player. Both are easy to find via a simple google search.

How To Watch Tv Shows Online For Free

Sep 3, 2007 Author: Kevin | Filed under: How To Guide, Internet

There are many different ways to watch tv shows online for free. There are also two types of tv shows online. Legal ones and illegal ones. The majority of them started out as illegal, until tv networks started offering their shows online for free. We would just like to state that we do not run any of the illegal ones and if you do use these you could be prosecuted by the tv networks that produce these. We provide links to them and you can decide if you want to take that route or not. We do not condone watching tv shows online for free illegally.

Legal:
1) NBC Video
2) ABC Video
3) ABC Family
4) Fox On Demand
5) CNN Video
6) CTV Broadband
7) The N - Click
8) ESPN
9) Comedy Central
10) Disney Channel
11) TNT
12) Brilliant But Cancelled

Illegal:
All you have to do is search on google for free tv shows online and you will find them yourselves.

In an act to prevent being sued or taken down from the MPAA and the powers that be in the United States, TorrentSpy has blocked all US users from accessing the site (Assuming they are not using a proxy, of course). I wonder if this will work or if they will still get taken down? What do you think?

SuprNova.org is BACK

Aug 27, 2007 Author: Kevin | Filed under: Internet, Technology

I personally do not download torrents, but I know many people that do on a daily basis, even hourly. While downloading mp3s are not illegal in Canada, I prefer to be safe.

Thanks to the guys with balls at ThePirateBay.org, SuprNova.org is back up and running. They no longer have a tracker, and are only a torrent indexer. The domain was donated to them from the old SuprNova.org owner. He said they had to keep the same general look of the previous site but could upgrade it in other ways. He will only be involved on the forum end which will be on SuprBay.org.

Weeds Season 3 Premiere Tomrrow

Aug 12, 2007 Author: Kevin | Filed under: Celebrity, Gossip, Internet, Sexy

I got hooked on weeds when it was in its second season. My friend made me start watching it from season 1 and I am glad I did. You would think that the show was lame and stupid if you had never watched it. The show does not lack anything. It may be a little far fetched but it shows the increased marijuana usage and how it has little harmful effect on people.

I, personally, cannot wait until tomrrow to see the show on showtime. Season 2 ended with a big bang and everyone is excited to see what happens. I hope all the regular characters are returning again this season and it’s going to be a blast. I have included two previews below that were on youtube and that were official.
