Frequently Asked Questions

Can't See Video?

You need a flash player to watch the videos. The download is safe and you can get it from Adobe.

For more information about compatability and other technical advice read the information at Youtube.com.

Videos Slow to Load or Stop and Start?

One tip is to press the pause button on the video and wait for the grey bar get ahead of the play position indicator.

I'll often click play on several videos at a time and then press pause and wait for them to upload. This way, while you're watching one video, others are downloading.

If you are on a dial-up connection, you'll have to wait a while for the videos to upload unfortunately.

Cannot See Video?

Sometimes when a page loads, for some reason the video box you want to click on doesn't show up. Usually this can be fixed by simply refreshing the page. Rarely, the video might have been removed from youtube. You can check this by clicking on the direct link to the video. If a video has been removed from Youtube please let me know by email or in the comments section of that video.

Can I post Comments?

The comments section seems to be working fine and you may post anonymously if you want. I will remove comments if they seem inappropriate, but otherwise feel free to add your comments.

Can I Download the Videos?

Yes! Several sites including www.keepvid.com allow you to insert the direct youtube link, that I include above every video, and download the videos as a flash file. You need to add the suffix .flv to the downloaded file. All directions are on that site including the software you'll need to play flash videos.

How to Use RSS?

You can subscribe to RSS for all or any category on this website, so that you will receive an automatic alert via your RSS reader when a new video is put up. If you don't have an RSS Reader you could start with NewsGator Online http://www.newsgator.com .

Let me know if you have any more questions.
