They Know What You Watching

We might have watched some crappy youtube video which was recommended by a friend, or a youtube link on Facebook, or recommended by youtube, or just a random video showed by youtube. We might have thought that no body would know about it.

WRONG!

As long as you are login to google account on any of the browser and whatever youtube video that you watched is being recorded in the history of your youtube account.

What's wrong with it? No body going to check the history, you might thought.

WRONG!

What if you borrow your computer or laptop to your family or friends or your children?
What if your friend need to use your Android or iPhone or WP or BB or whatever to check their emails or twitter or something else.
By chance they might have open up an youtube video that their friends shared with them and then they click on your youtube history.

Anyway, I might have sound too paranoid, most of the people watched what most of the people watch on youtube. So life goes on. Or is it?

Your choice after all.

Last week one of my external harddisk crashed, all the youtube video that I downloaded for my kids are gone. I have tried recuva and testdisk, I even run testdisk on Linux (boot from USB), too bad unable to fix it. I managed to recover some of them using photorec, but problem with photorec is it does not copy the files into the same file name, they are just some numbers, which was very frustrated.

So I go back to youtube history, look for the videos that I watched, and download again the videos that my kids like to watch, include PSY Oppa Gangnam Style. They still like it, what can you do?

To check your youtube history:
  1. Open the youtube if you haven't open it
  2. Click on your username, on top right side. A list of boxes show up, such as favorites, Watch Later, Likes, History, and your channels.
  3. Click on History and you can find all videos that you watched and you might find some of them that you think you never watch, but you did. HAHAHA.
  4. There is an option to delete all of the history or pick some of them and remove them.

Summary, it is very easy to find out what you have watched on youtube. Unless you always use Incognito on Chrome or InPrivate on IE8, or some other private mode on other browsers which is very unlikely.

Latest Instagram Update (after FB bought over)

You probably already know that Facebook bought over Instagram few months ago. But do you know that how Instagram doing after being bought over? Well, lamebook.com have some idea, here is what they think FB Instagram will roll out new filters.

Personally I don't know why Instagram is so popular and why (some) people like it. It is just a bunch of badly photoshopped photos. Oh wait, that make sense that Facebook bought it over.
:P

HDC Galaxy S 3 (Clone/Fake Phone)

GizmoChina found a clone Samsung Galaxy S 3 selling on China. The model is HDC Galaxy S 3. The deal is you are getting Galaxy S 3 made by HTC(?). For native Chinese speaking people, D and T sound the same, therefore HDC would sounds like HTC. Alright now this fake phone is a hybrid of Korean and Taiwanese, best of both world? meh.

This is very usual in Chinese. DealExtreme and some other Chinese website were selling  phones and smartphones like Nokla, iFon, and HDC. Nowadays they don't put the brand, they just put the model which sounds like the real deal, like X10i, B79, and 9100. Anyway, Samsung Galaxy S 3 is the next victim.

The exterior looks almost the same with 4.7-inch TFT screen, 1GHz processor, 512MB of RAM and a 5-megapixel camera, which cost about US$200 only. Wow.
See video of hands on on the clone Samsung Galaxy S 3 or I should say HDC Galaxy S 3:

Travel for Free (maybe)

Like to travel? Want to travel for free? Well, you can do that, only if you are beautiful. Read this, beautiful. Sorry guys, only for girls. There is no free lunch in this world however. There is a price you have to pay (not money in this case), but rather something else...... Sounds scary?

MissTravel.com is an online dating website. There are 2 groups of members, the first one is the "attractive" travelers which get the free travel. The second group is the "generous" travelers which will cover the travel cost of the "attractive" members, plus any others stuffs and also there is a need to pay a fee to the MissTravel.com if you decided to communicate with any "attractive" travelers.

Here is a video made by the website to explain it in simple language:


Basically this is an online dating website. But the ultimate goal is to let "generous" travelers to have a company when travel, while "attractive" travelers get to full fill their wish of travel for free.

I get nothing by introducing this website. And I would advice to be extra care when using online dating services. The website put up some safety tips, therefore I would think they will not responsible to you when you use their service, since they already put it in terms and conditions:

How to Counter-Annoy Neighbor or Colleague

Once in a while we will bum into some annoying neighbor or colleague with their iPhone or Android phone. They turn on some lousy and noisy ringtone, which will interrupt your concentration at work. Some just want to let the whole world know they now have a smartphone (with annoying owner) by turn on the sound of soft keyboard to the loudest and reply sms every few minute.

I am glad that now I found this website to counter-annoy these people:


FunSwitcher has a lot of annoying sounds that being uploaded by any internet users. What you need to do is to find the sound that will counter-annoy back the annoying neighbor or colleague, and play it loud from your laptop/computer/smartphone.

Have fun! Here is the link:

Earth Hour Promotions That Is Not Earth Friendly

While I try my best to just keep my posts to PC, Smartphone, websites and any related to technology, I just can't reject to post this picture.

Anything can be commercialize, in this case the Earth Hour. A restaurant in KL is doing a Earth Hour Set at Earth Hour day.
Earth Hour failed on Outdated Penang Uncle blogspot dot com

Questions:

  1. How are you going to eat with lights off during Earth Hour? Well, it might be candle light dinner.
  2. How does eating smoked salmon help Earth Hour? The salmon already smoked, I am helping the Earth to clean it up.
  3. How does eating Ocean Bass help Earth Hour? These fishes are shitting all over the ocean, I am doing my part to wipe it out.
  4. How does eating chicken help Earth Hour? Chicken are a very noisy species, it cause sound pollution.
What do you do during that Earth Hour? Shut the light? 
Well, I am not going to do that. Because I am saving the electricity everyday, I am not going to switch off light on that hour because everyone is doing that. The power stations going to burn the same amount of coal/gas/any non-renewable energy even you all switch off the light! 
If you really want to help the Earth, do switch off the light and electrical appliances that you not longer needed, everyday. And also do recycle/reuse/renew.
DO NOT DO IT only at Earth Hour only that has been commercialized.
Every hour is Earth Hour, save the planet!
