ebooks – How to get started

January 10th, 2012 admin

I personally believe there’s something magic about books. Not magic in the hocus-pocus sense of the word, but in the feelings a book is sometimes able to invoke in you. I like going to bookshops or libraries and choosing a new book to read, touch its pages, breathe-in its scent. Something you can’t obviously do [...]

Top Firefox add-ons for social networks

January 8th, 2012 Elena Santos

I admit it: one of the first things I do in the morning, together with checking my email and reading RSS feeds, is going over my diverse personal profiles in Facebook, Twitter and other social networking sites. It’s not until you join a few of them that you start to realize how time-consuming they can [...]

Download from YouTube: the best add-ons for Firefox

December 31st, 2011 Niamh Lynch

Browsing videos on YouTube is great fun, but what happens when you find one you’d like to view offline, keep or transfer? Although you can embed or link to videos you like, YouTube doesn’t actually give you any option to download them. Don’t worry, because some of Firefox’s great add-ons (plugins that you can use [...]

YouTube for kids, music, books and more

October 6th, 2009 Elena Santos

YouTube, the most famous video sharing community in the world, was launched back in 2005. After four years it has become a clear point of reference in online business for other people, who have launched a bunch of websites following the same concept: gathering similar content and sharing it online. Sometimes these websites use the YouTube brand to explain their service, and you find expressions such as YouTube for music, YouTube for photos or Youtube for books.

This post aims at list all those different versions of YouTube, including of course the ones you share with us in comments.

YouTube for kids
You may already know some of the many adult versions of YouTube, but you won’t probably be so familiar with this YouTube for kids. Totlol.com features standalone videos, and also collections: groups of similar videos categorized by topic.

YouTube for kids, music, books and more

Totlol.com is actually powered by YouTube and can adapt the interface and contents according to the age range we select. Parental control options let you block settings to prevent children from messing with them.

YouTube for books
If you had enough videos for today and fancy reading something instead, check out Scribd.com. This website features books and documents published by anyone, anywhere.

YouTube for kids, music, books and more

You can find almost anything on Scribd, from short papers about the French Revolution to an Excel Function Dictionary or a 500-page long work about Analytical Psychology.

All books and documents in Scribd are conveniently organized in categories and can be sorted by language, licence, length and file format.

YouTube for music
When looking for a website that could be considered as YouTube for music, there are several candidates. One of them is GoEar, which features a powerful search engine, lets you listen to any MP3 files for free and supports a list of Favorite songs.

 

YouTube for kids, music, books and more

Another good option is soundzit, with more than 300 million songs in its database and no registration required. Simply enter, search and enjoy your favorite music!

Grooveshark features a search engine as the main access to its music database. You can also manage your music, recently played tracks, popular hits, and a list of favorite songs.

YouTube for kids, music, books and more

Last but not least, we have Last.fm – the most social-oriented candidate of all three. You can discover new bands based on recommendations according to your musical taste, keep a list of friends and also manage concerts and other events.

YouTube for videogames
The most YouTube-like website is undoubtedly GameTrailers, which features an amazingly large collection of videos about all sorts of games, both in standard and high quality.

YouTube for kids, music, books and more

But this doesn’t mean GameTrailers is the only one. You also have WiiTube (mostly for Nintendo Wii videos), SimTube (specializing in flight simulators) and WeGame, which also hosts videos recorded by players with the WeGame app.

YouTube for scientists
Video sharing sites are not only about fun. You can also find more serious versions, like SciVee, which offers videos about scientific experiments.

YouTube for kids, music, books and more

Other similar websites are MIT Tech TV – a video community aimed at the distribution of science, engineering, technology and other MIT-related video material on the web – and JoVE, which features biological research.

They all provide you with a valuable tool to aggregate, share and spread scientific knowledge in a more entertaining way.

Want more?
If these YouTube versions weren’t enough, here’s a list of other similar sharing communities we found on the Web.

Play Sega Genesis games on your iPhone

August 25th, 2009 James Thornton

As a lad, I remember the Sega Genesis being the pinnacle of home computer entertainment systems. My television was rarely used for actually watching TV and every main present at Christmas was cartridge-shaped. It shows how far we’ve come (or how old I am) that I can now play Genesis/Mega Drive games on my phone [...]

Top 10 software songs

August 19th, 2009 James Thornton

After I finally stopped laughing at Mashable’s round-up of the best songs about Facebook and Twitter, I’ve had time to compose my own list of the best software-related tunes. It’s amazing how many artists have felt compelled to write songs professing their love (or often their hatred) of applications and operating systems.  Here are the [...]

Top 10 Nokia games

July 29th, 2009 James Thornton

You’ve probably seen countless TV and magazine adverts for Nokia game downloads. You know, the ones where you have to text a number, it costs about 10 dollars and you get plagued with spam forever after. The trouble is a lot of these games are actually pretty crappy and you’ll most likely end up hating [...]
