Links to your website are always important if you want to get high positions in the search result. You’re not allowed to buy links but there are other ways to get (legal) backlinks. Wiep just showed me a nice customized google search engine; CommentHunt. Use CommentHunt to find (high) pagerank blogs without nofollow tags.

P.S. Please don’t go spamming the blogs, only leave relevant comments!

After finding a nice pic of Alexandra promoting FireFox we now have somebody supporting google:

I had some problems converting my avi (divx) torrents to a mp4 format for my iPhone. Googling for some answers I only came to crapy sites offering me paid software. Because I know it’s not that hard to convert a file I tried some things my self with the free VLC player. Here’s a guide how you convert your downloaded torrents to mp4 (suitable for iPod or iPhone):

1. Download VLC player.

2. Go to the streaming/exporting wizard.

3. Choose transcode/Save to file.

4. Choose your input stream.

5. Put the video codec on “MPEG-4 Video” and choose your bitrate (I recommend 512)

6. Put the audio codec on “MPEG-4 Audio” and choose your bitrate (I recommend 128)

7. Put the encapsulation format on MPEG 4 / MP4

8. Choose the name and location you want to save the file.

9. Click on finish, that’s all!

Now you can put your movies or series in iTunes and sync it with your iPhone. If you want to convert a DVD to your iPhone or any other device I suggest you use Handbrake.

On my way home to unlock it…
