This is the smallest mp3 player I have seen so far . If you know any other which is smaller than 24mm x 24mm x 24mm then do let me know . I has a build in memory if 1 GB and it also support audio files in wma format . Other than just an audio player , it also support FM radio and voice recording up to 8 hours .

As far as the shape is concerned I still have doubts it will turn out to be a handy player as it will not be comfortable in pockets due to its cube like shape . The lady in the above photos have put the player in the best places but waht about the earphone ?? If it is just for a show piece then it is fine .

I rate this product 3/5
razz and what about you guys ?

YouTube videos are the most viewed media on the internet . Anyone can upload their own creative work to Youtube but the problem is that when someone else wants to download a video to their PC , there is no such option available . The videos are only to be accessed via YouTube website . The good news is that there are different methods available by which YouTube videos can be easily downloaded .

I will share with you two methods that you can use to download YouTube videos directly to your PC hard drive . One method is to use a free online
YouTube downloader , which also is a converter . It does not require any download and all the conversion is done on the server side ( web ) . At the end it generates a link to your file in your desired output Video / Audio format.

The other method is to use a PC based software called VideoGet . With this easy to use tool you can not only download videos from YouTube but can get videos from over 600+ video sharing sites . There are various supported formats for the output file and once the file is completely downloaded it automatically converts the file in your desired video format .

I was reading the Sports reference blog and one thing that immediately caught my attention was the cost associated with 2008 Olympic games which is four times as must as the previous Olympic games held in 2004 in Athens . Previous Olympic games were the most expensive ones in the history of such games but this time China indeed has beaten the previous mark with a BIG BANG , when they put forward a spectacular show in opening ceremony of Beijing 2008 Olympics . I enjoyed every piece of it and I had no doubts left that this indeed was the best ever Olympics Opening ceremony .

Following is a really nice slide show which only shows a glimpse of how the opening ceremony was put together to give start to something which turned out to be the most expensive event of its kind .






This show was indeed the best in the history of Olympics razz . Only this Opening Ceremony cost was $300 million which made the overall cost for 2008 Olympics to something around $40 billion . With almost 10,700 athletes participating , this makes it almost $28,000 estimated budget per athlete and that is only for the opening ceremony .

The surprising thing is yet to hit you guys . See a little comparison below :


2008 Beijing Olympics
2004 Athens Olympics


Estimated Cost : $40 Billion
Number of Participating countries : 204
Total number of athletes : 10,700



Estimated Cost : $11 Billion
Number of Participating countries : 201
Total number of athletes : 10,558



With almost the same number of participating Nations the difference in the cost of these two Olympic games is yet to be justified . But who cares ?? wink
