Video

Watching videos online and on your computer is another great way to spend your time. There are different ways of doing it. One way is finding videos online you can download to your computer and then watch. There are different places online to find these videos. For instance, you can look them up using the Video tab on Yahoo. Another way of watching videos online is by using streaming video. Basicly that means you can watch these videos online without having to download them. A couple of websites with good streaming video are YouTube and Yahoo Music.
There are a few media players to play downloadable videos on. Probably the most used is Windows Media Player. I’ve found it to work well with plenty of options. Then there’s QuickTime. This is from Apple, and also works well. You get it automaticly when you download iTunes. There’s also RealPlayer. It has Real Guide which helps you find different kinds of media.
Of course, you can watch DVDs on your computer without even being hooked up to the Net if you have a DVD drive. You have to have software that plays DVDs, such as PowerDVD. It works pretty much like your standard DVD player for your TV.
Watching videos on your computer is fun and a good use for your PC.
