A recent post over at PCMech.com reminded me of a very interesting and useful service I came across the other day.
The PCMech article talks about KickYouTube, but the one I found was called PwnYouTube. Both sites work exactly the same:
- View a video on Youtube
- Insert “pwn” or “kick” in front of youtube.com:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v= » http://www.pwnyoutube.com/watch?v=
- Get redirected to a page where you can click a link to download the video.
Easy, quick, and works like a charm, all without having to bother with cumbersome plugins and addons. Give them a try!
I love tech, but don’t have as much time or money to spend on it as I’d like. I get what I need to sustain my Geek vicariously through other sources and pass it along to you.

There is also vixy.net (I believe that’s the site). It allows someone to download/convert the youtube vid to a few formats. It works, but sometimes it takes 2 or 3 tries…could be the proxy here (my jobby-job) though.
@robert – Awesome; thanks for the tip
