Illegally download movies

           One thing that I am good at is getting any movie that I want from the Internet. Many people do not know how to enjoy this benefit and save a lot of money. I like to share my knowledge on how to illegally download movies from the Internet.

            First thing that anyone has to do to download movies is to pick a good Torrent client and a Torrent website. Torrent websites are websites that lists Torrent files. These files are computer files that allow access to file sharing network of the specific software, song or movie which the file is associated with. Torrent client is software which runs the Torrent file and downloads the data from the network. There are many Torrent websites and Torrent clients available. I personally prefer www.BTJunkie.com, as it is a database of millions of Torrent files. Also, it gives user ratings, comments and qualities of the file sharing networks. UTorrent is my favorite Torrent client, as it is very simple to use, available for PC and Mac and very lightweight, since it only consumes 400kb of space on your hard disk. 

            The next step is to choose the correct Torrent file. There can be thousands of Torrent files for one movie but selecting the right one from this list requires some skill and experience. The first thing to be aware of is the title. You have to make sure the title seems real. There can be titles of movies that do not exit or not released can appear, therefore, you have to do some research on the movie before downloading it. Second, when you search for a specific title of a movie, you have to select the search result that has most number of seeders. In addition, the number of leeches should be less than the number of seeders. Seeders are the number of clients that are uploading the file and leeches are the number of clients that are downloading the file. In order to have a fast download speed, there should be high number of seeders. The last thing to do before selecting the torrent file is to make sure the quality of the movie is good. You have to read comments on the Torrent site for the specific Torrent file to find out about the quality.

            The last step is to download the data for the movie. First, download the Torrent file from the Torrent site. Then, open the file with the Torrent client. When you open the file, the client will ask a location on the hard drive to save the data which you have to specify. The location has to have enough space to hold whole capacity of the data that you are downloading. The last thing is to wait till all the data finish downloading to your computer. You should have a bit of patience to download from Torrents as the download speed can vary from time to time.

           To sum up, a movie of good quality can be downloaded by using the steps mentioned above. These require a bit of skill, experience and patience in order to follow these steps perfectly and obtain movies from the internet so that you could save a lot of money and enjoy some of the perks of the Internet.

Review: The Social Network

The Social Network is a dram film about the founding of the social networking website Facebook and battle with lawsuits resulting by the creation. The film was directed David Fincher, and the script was written by Aaron Sorkin.  The screenplay is an adaptation of the Accidental Billionaires. The film was produced under a budget of $50 million, and grossed over $130 million. This is a critical success; gaining high ratings from well know critiques.

The plot of the film is as follows. The film starts in a nosy, where Zuckerberg and his girlfriend are having a conversation. At the end conversation, his girlfriend dumps him. Fuel by anger Zuckerberg stomps to his dorm. Then he hacks the college network and obtains pictures of every female student. The he set up a site called Facemash, a site which student can give rating to girls based on their hotness. This was instant hit. He then catches the attention of Winklevoss twins, who have a great idea of setting up social media site only for Harvard students, Harvard Connect. He takes this idea, and with help of his best friend, Ecuador Saverin, set up the site TheFacebook. Sean Parker, founder of Napster came across the site when Zuckerberg expanded the site to other colleges. Zuckerberg met Sean Parker while he was in New York searching for advertising offers. Sean Parker gives ideas, which makes Zuckerberg move to Silicone Valley, with funds from Ecuador. The site became very successful. After few months, Ecuador loses his shares in the company, as he was not directly involved in its operations. Zuckerberg has to fight against two lawsuits during the film, one for Ecuador losing share in the company, and the other for stealing Winklevoss twin’s idea. At the end Mark loses the court battle, and has to pay $68 million to Winklevoss twins, and an undisclosed amount to Ecuador. Ecuador also gets his status as founder restored. This is the plot in the movie.

This is a great film. Even though, the film does not portray the accurate events happened during Zuckerbergs’s first year in Harvard, but it is almost like a biography of his first year in Harvard. Zuckerberg is portrayed as a sociopath in the film, but he may not be a sociopath in real life. The performances of actors portraying real life characters are as accurate as it can be. The film has dramatized the actual events to more interesting and exciting ones. The screenplay is very funny for a drama film. There are intense conversations in the film. These are the features that make this film great.

Introducing the New Controller from Microsoft

 News about this controller has been spreading around the media for the past two years. The Computer savvy people got to know about this big release from an information leak from Microsoft in May 2009. During 2009 E3 conference, Microsoft announced this as Project NATAL, a new gesture based controller for XBOX 360. After that there were occasional information leaks on this on the Internet. In June 2010 Microsoft unveiled its final name with its features. Kinnet, new gesture based controller for XBOX 360, is a unique controller unlike any other controller on the market.

Kinnet is a very advanced, state of the art controller for a game console. This is a controller, which a user does not have to hold to use. It has three cameras; the middle one is a RGB camera, that captures video at a resolution of 640*480, the other two cameras are depth sensors. All three cameras combined form a 3D image of the user. The console uses this to detect body movements, with the direction of movement. Then the console uses this to find out how the user wants to control the interface, and it responds to it.  The user can do this by selecting an item on the menu just by pointing their hands; or the person playing can play a boxing game just by pretending to play a real game of boxing in the user’s living room. This also has voice and facial recognition, which allows users to talk to the console, and play with up to four players simultaneously. This is a new innovation, that incorporates cutting-edge technology.
