Amazingly Accurate Accents

Amy Walker nearly is to accents what Baskin & Robbins is to ice cream.

She just about nails 21 out of 21 accents. To a T.

Save the Bandwidth, Save the Earth

Well, maybe not that drastic a save.

But it still kind of irks me when I’m one of many on a recipient’s list of an email that has a multi-megabyte movie file attached.

For those that read blogs, I imagine my tip below to be old school news, but should I successfully reach out to just one individual, who tells two friends, who tell two friends…

Just as a tip, and to save ‘bandwidth’, when sending people a heads-up on videos that are worth seeing, your best bet is to head on over to YouTube.com, punch-in a quick search for the title of the video.

Click it to watch if you indeed have found the one you were about to “attach” to an email sent to 23 of your very BFFs, then select the URL from your browsers address bar and copy it.

Then, you can simply mail this “link” to the specific youtube page that has that video!

Voila, you’ve save internet bandwidth by a factor of many many many megabytes of freeing up the bandwidth of the internet. (In the case of a 6.4 megabyte video, multiplied by 23 friends, equals almost 150 megabytes of bandwidth save.)

I’m not feeling so lucky. So I’m presenting this to you.

After an adventurous end-of-day-albeit-end-of-the-week 20-minute A.D.D. romp through my various RSS distractions, I came across this video and was stopped in my tracks.

A slightly lengthy, but oh-so-worthwhile look at that which too many people fail to see.

Have a look for your self, then let me know what YOU are going to do.
