Open in a New Tab - You Learn Something New Everyday Dept

Filed under: Gaming / Tech, Internet

So I learned something new the other day about mouse control and Firefox.

If you’ve got a middle button, usually it’s also the scroll wheel, you can use it to open links in a new tab if you’re using FireFox!

I love this because I often open new sites in new tabs rather than a new window or on the same page.

So, there ya go, I’m just a little bit geekier, and maybe so are you!

Martial Arts Mishap & Video Hosting Site

Filed under: Internet, Net Wanderings

Here’s a short video with a “the show must go on” kind of guy:

Did you notice the one frame ad at the end? Did you click on it?

Well that’s the model of this new video hosting site. They put a one frame ad at the end of a video and if someone clicks on it the ad revenue gets shared with the video creator, with Revver, and even with an affiliate who links to the video (me, in this case).

It could be a neat way to host viral videos whose popularity would normally cost you and arm leg in bandwidth costs if the link got passed around.

As you an see above, Revve offers you code to embed a player on your site, or it gives you a thumbnail or regular text link option.
