Mux video transcoder

I'm using Linux at home and I can't watch some video formats (for example: flash video, because my flash can't be updated now, I don't know why) but I have found a good tool for my problem: Mux. You must write the URL of the video, the input type and the wanted output type and it will convert the video to the wanted format. You are emailed when it's all done. I think it's cool, because I don't want to change my OS.

Google Maps with Your Locations!

web tools, free, software: YourGMap

I've found a possible practical utilization for Google Map: it's called YourGMap

What is it?
"YourGMap Examples:
* A map of store locations embedded into another website
* Back from a trip? Show your friends where you went!
* Make a map of your favorite restaurants!
* Office locations around the world"

By the Author:
"About this Service

YourGMap is great for two kinds of users:

* Anyone who needs to an easy way to create a map and send to their friends,
* Web designers who want to add interactive maps to their client's websites.

The Google Maps API is great for creating powerful map-based applications, but requires JavaScript skills. YourGMap offers a simpler way."

"I had the idea for this site when I was looking for a place to cash my traveller's checks in New York City. When I googled for AmEx offices, the only page that came up was a simple address list. A native New Yorker knows each corner of Manhattan by heart and could instantly figure out which office is closest. For me, a map would have been better. Hopefully, people will use this tool to fill the web with beautiful maps instead of address lists."
