Commercials published in video sharing web sites or streamed in blogs is really the new trend on the new Internet 2.0… Here comes a brand new Web TV that is streaming commercials only !
Got a name ? FireBrand !
The interface is a pure beauty, sober and very user friendly…fully developed in Flash…
I have been surprised by a very nice option offered by FireBrand: you can download the commercial you are watching in you preferred video file format ! This is not usual, since most WebTV’s allow streaming only…
Don’t waste your time if you are fond of marketing and commercials ! Go test FireBrand !

After watching a video on a web site, you may want to save the video file into your local disk for playing it offline in the future. If the video file is stored in your web browser cache, VideoCacheView can help you to extract the video file from the cache and save it for watching it in the future.
VideoCacheView automatically scans the entire cache of Internet Explorer and Mozilla-based Web browsers (including Firefox) and finds all video files that are currently stored in it. It allows you to easily copy the cached video files into another folder for playing/watching them in the future. If you have a movie player that is configured to play flv files, it also allows you to play the video directly from your web browser cache.

“This video is no longer available†is the message you will read on YouTube video player when this video has been removed either by the YouTube (copyrights reasons or censored video…) or by the user that has uploaded the video…
Sometimes the video is unavailable but it’s still showing up in the video search results, but once again you will be prompted with a laconic “This video is no longer available†message…
But stay tuned ! If you really want to watch this video, there is chances that it is still somewhere cached by YouTube…in the same way as you can browse pages in the cache of Google…
Two websites allow to find this “cached” videos for you:
In order to retrieve this “deleted video” you need to get the unique ID of the video on YouTube. To get this unique ID, just copy the end code of the video URL:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNIQUE_VIDEO_ID
Then you just need to paste this ID to one of the two services mentioned and if the video is still in YouTube cache, you will get it !
