How to Get Pictures From the Internet in Your Video

HOW TO GET PICTURES FROM THE INTERNET IN YOUR VIDEO

Vivian asked the question:

“If I want to make my own video is there a source of pictures/videos I could use in my own video, for example if I wanted a picture of the planet earth from space spliced into my video can I do that?”

Larry’s Reply:

For personal use images of earth you can go to: http://visibleearth.nasa.gov/

NASA Terms of Use

For all non-private uses, NASA’s Terms Of Use are as follows:

  1. The imagery is free of licensing fees
  2. NASA requires that they be provided a credit as the owners of the imagery

Other sources include istockphoto.com. This is an inexpensive pay for use site and has about any type of photo, video clip or audio clip that you could want.

The Tech Wizard’s Favorite: The iPod Touch


Oh no – not another tech product description!!!

Don’t worry.  This time you can sit back and watch a video created by a teenager that describes the iPod.

Have you ever wondered about the iPod?  What it does.  Why people talk about it.  Why your kids want you to buy it for them or for yourself?    Now you don’t have to sit in a store asking a sales person.  Or, spend hours on the internet trying to figure it out.

Just sit back and watch the video.  If you still have questions, leave a comment.  Jacob – the technical Wizard – will try to answer any of your questions.

A Simple Way to Back Up Computer Files

A Simple Way to Back Up Computer Files

Keep the comments coming!

I received some feedback from my first blog and I hope this blog helps address the question of backing up your files to an external hard drive.

Let me just start by saying that backing up your file content should be done if your computer is 2 years or older – of course any time before that is good too – but it is really important if you have a computer 2 years or older.  I’ll explain how to do this with a PC and with a MAC.

To view the file content of your external hard drive on a Windows PC.

1. Open windows explorer. Click the “Start” icon in the lower left of

your desk top screen.

2. In the “Start Search” panel – type “windows explorer” and hit enter.

This will open your windows explorer.

3. In the side bar – Select and open the “Computer” icon folder. Below the computer icon you will see all external drives and external memory cards/sticks listed.

In this example (C:) is the computer hard drive

(D:) is the computer data drive

(E:) is the DVD/CDR drive

(F:) is a removable data stick

(G:) is a Western Digital external hard drive

(H:) is a Toshiba external hard drive

4. Select the external hard drive – in this example the external hard drives have a manufacturer name and icon “My Book” and “TOSHIBA”.

5. I have selected the “My Book” external hard drive.

6. I now can see what folders and files are present on the Drive.

7. Open any folder on the external drive to view the content.

To view the file content of your external hard drive on a MAC

1. Open finder window by clicking on the finder icon in the MAC Dock.

The side bar helps you navigate

2. Click on the external drive icon to see what folders are available.

3. Or – search for a file using spotlight – type in a file name in the

window and finder will show you all relevant files and where they are

located.

Hope this helps.
