Tool for converting video formats

I just found a great little online site that converts FLV files to MPEG and MOV formats along with a host of others.

Just download a YouTube file using a site like www.savetube.com and then convert the file using Media Convert. Save Tube is also a site where you can backup any of the videos you have uploaded to You Tube or any other video site.

You’ll have to upload it but I found the upload and resulting download (of the new file) both went quite quickly and the resulting file quality is quite good — at least for MOV files. And because it is online, no software to install.

Sherman Hu’s TutorialU just launched

Sherman Hu of Wordpress Tutorials fame has just launched his new venture, TutorialU with a few great packages. His new site www.TutorialU.com is built with a new WP theme and somewhere down the line he is going to offer a package where you get to buy the theme and you get all Sherman’s tutorials on how to SEO and tweak this theme for the maximum impact. I can’t wait for that as it will be perfect for my new niche.

In the meantime, this is what TutorialU is about. At launch, he is selling 3 main packages:
