I had given up on Blogspot ever having a makeover in favor of the nice themes at
wordpress, but man, the new CEO at google is really shaking some stuff here.
Check out the nice features for customizing the themes at Blogspot

Hello Video World
Here is a short video I created on my experiences in using the new features in youtube video editing.
Whats new in Youtube videos-
1) My account can now upload more than 15 minutes of video
2) I can edit the videos online without any software at http://www.youtube.com/editor
3) I can also create a video straight from the Web Cam at http://www.youtube.com/my_webcam and http://www.youtube.com/my_videos_edit
4) I thought but eventually decided not to use the Animation features (for free) at
http://goanimate.com/signup ( I can login using my Google Account !)
5) Since I hope to keep my videos seperate- I created a new video at the awesome new features in Blogspot at
http://videosforkush.blogspot.com/ (seperate blog post on that later) and then I just share my videos using the Share feature in Blogspot (big discovery- the Twitter button has been demoted from the share this by you-tube button hierarchy)
5.6) I can preview the features side by side as well
6) I still wish Youtube has some feature to help me capture the screen so I can make training videos at a faster rate so I no longer have to use Camtasia
Video killed the Radio Star- Yup
Heres the final video-

How to disguise your IP Address from your most wonderful glorious leaders-

Tor Browser Bundle
The Tor software protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you visit, it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location, and it lets you access sites which are blocked.
The Tor Browser Bundle lets you use Tor on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux without needing to install any software. It can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser, and is self-contained. The Tor IM Browser Bundleadditionally allows instant messaging and chat over Tor. If you would prefer to use your existing web browser, install Tor permanently, or if you don’t use Windows, see the other ways to download Tor.
Freedom House has produced a video on how to find and use the Tor Browser Bundle. If you don’t see a video below, view it at Youtube . Know of a better video or one translated into your language? Let us know!
and if you now want to see or check your own website for a Denial of Service attack , download this
http://sourceforge.net/projects/loic/
This is the software for which 32 Turkish teenagers got arrested for bringing down their govt websites. Do NOT USE it for ILLEGAL purposes,
because 1) it is hosted on a western website that due to Patriot Act would tracking downloads as well as most likely be inserting some logging code into your computer (especially if you are still on Windows)
2) Turkey being a NATO member got rather immediate notice of this – which makes it very likely that this tool is compromised in the Western Hemisphere. You can probably use this in Eastern Hemisphere country excluding Israel, Turkey, China, India ,Korea or Japan because these countries do have sophisticated hackers working for the government as well.
3) This is just a beginners tool to understand how flooding a website with requests work.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/loic/files/
Basically download, unzip the file
Enter URL and click Lock on to know IP address.
use HTTP Method. Make say 1000 threads.
Then press the IMMA CHARGING MY LAZER big button.
Note the Failed Tab tells you how good or bad this method is.
Note – it wont work on my blogs hosted on wordpress.com- but then those blogs had a root level breach some time back. It did work on both my blogspot and my tumblr blogs, and it completely shattered my son’s self hosted wordpress blog (see below)
