But what i am going to talk about in this post is about Google Maps.

We know what is Google Maps. It really help us a lot if you want to go somewhere that you never been to without a gps. I used to search the route to reach somewhere that i don't know.
It will show the route with a 2D map.
How about 3D? No Problem.
How about 4D?
NO PROBLEM!!!

Yes, don't confuse. We are talking about viewing a 4D map via Google Maps!



Actually what i am talking about is Google Maps Street View.
This function have been developed since 2007.
Unfortunately, Malaysia is not in coverage.

But you can test it by viewing others country. What you have to do is go to Google Maps , click on the little yellow man which locate at the top of the zoom in button and drag it to the map which is in blue color (not the sea =.=). Now you will feel like you are touring the country. ^^ Try others country like Japan as well.

So how Google do that?

Google Street View displays scans taken from Google Street View cars which travel along all the cities and capture the street view.



Hoping this function will be soon available in Google Maps Malaysia. Then i won't get lost anymore ^^

P.S: You can get more fun photo that capture by Google Street View Cars via this website StreetViewFun

Play all the video with WMP!

Undeniable, nowadays all of us like free resources.
So, what will you do when you miss a movie that shown at the cinema?
DOWNLOAD!

Yes, that's what we always do when we want to watch a movie or drama for free.

RMVB seem is the most common video extension file that available online. The main reason is the file size is small and can support high quality video. However, after you finished download your favorite movie, suddenly you found that Windows Media Player that come with your Microsoft Windows can't play RMVB file?!


So what will you do now?
Delete the video and go buy original disc?
obviously none of us will do that, i sure!
2nd method, download Real Media Player from internet.
Hmm~ seem this is the way how we do most.

To play RMVB (or RM) files, actually we don't need any extra player.
What really we need is the CODEC!
Yes, the CODEC that make your Windows Media Player play RMVB file smoothly.

K-Lite Mega Codec Pack is the most complete codec pack that available online.
With K-Lite codec pack, you can almost play 99% type of video that you download from internet.

The K-Lite Codec Pack has a couple of major advantages compared to other codec packs:

  • It is updated frequently. So it is always up-to-date with the newest and/or best components.
  • All components have been carefully selected for specific purposes. It is not just a random bunch of stuff thrown together.
  • It is very user-friendly and easy to use.
  • The installation is fully customizable, meaning that you are able to install just those components that you really want.
  • The customization abilities even go beyond the component level. Some components are able to handle multiple formats. You can specify exactly which components should handle which formats. The pack can thus be fully tweaked to your own specific needs and preferences.
  • Uninstallation removes everything that was installed by the pack. Including all registry keys.
  • It is extremely easy to make a fully customized unattended installation with the integrated wizard.
  • It does not contain any bad, buggy or unstable codecs.
