YouTube’s Video Analytics

If you publish videos on YouTube you are also able to see the how many people watched it, where they came from and how they discovered it.

On My Videos page choose the Insight button.

YouTube Videos

Then an Insight page is loaded and you can choose between three tabs: Views, Popularity and Discovery.

Insight > View

Youtube Insight - Views

Insight > Popularity

Insight > Discovery

YouTube Insight - Discovery

The most interesting for me is Discovery, because you can see the source of visits to the video. Then if you click on list of top sources you can see the keywords that were used, pages which link to your video … For example, my video Jesenice Fans in Ljubljana was found by keywords: olimpija (33%), jesenice (8.3%) and olimpija police (4.1%).

Mobile Google Maps and Search

Mobile Google

After a mobile Gmail I had to add mobile Google Maps and Search to my mobile phone. Maps have a nice feature which locates you on a map. I can’t wait to test it on some of my bike trips around Ljubljana. I wonder if it is accurate enough to never get lost again. I’ll keep you posted …

Here is the link (again): http://mobile.google.com or http://www.google.com/mobile/

Mobile Gmail

Today I have finally added a mobile application to access my Gmail account from mobile phone. I really don’t know why I have waited so long.

So what to do:

1. Go to mobile.google.com with your mobile phone

2. Download the application

3. Log in and use it - check emails, send them …

I actually LOVE this app because you can use your email account wherever you are. And the User interface is easy to use. I have checked and there is no problem to open a doc file and if there is a phone number written in it just point the cursor there and you will be able to call it. BTW press 7 to delete the email

Happy emailing!

HP web site in Flex

While I was searching the data about Adobe’s Flex (”Flex is a highly productive, free open source framework for building and maintaining expressive web applications that deploy consistently on all major browsers, desktops, and operating systems.” Source) I came across HP’s site - Free Print Projects with HP Print Studio that was build in Flex.

(Either JavaScript is not active or you are using an old version of Adobe Flash Player. Please install the newest Flash Player.)

It actually looks cool :) And there are lots of nice features to test.

Adobe’s Photoshop Express

Let’s see what Adobe’s Photoshop Express brings to us.

Photoshop Express

The service is currently available only to users from US (according to Membership or Sign-up form), but it works fine if you select US as your country.

After your Photoshop Express ID is created you must verify your email and then you are able to start uploading, organizing, editing, storing (up to 2 GB) and publishing your pictures.

This is how it looks the backend:

Photoshop Express - Backend

First, I wanted to upload photo and see what I can do with it. Upload is easy, and as I can see you can also upload the files from Facebook, Photobucket or Picassa. I am missing a possibility to upload from Flickr! The uploaded photos can be placed into Library or Albums, you can add a caption, rate the picture and of course edit it.

So which editing features are available? In Basics (Crop&Rotate, Auto Correct, Exposure, Red-Eye Removal, Touchup, Saturation), Tuning (White ballance, Highlight, Highlight, Fill Light, Sharpen, Soft Focus) and Effects (PopColor, Hue, Black & White, Tint, Sketch, Disort).

It’s not exactly a set of tools that Photoshop can offer but it’s enough to do some basic editing. If you are advanced user it’s still better to use layers, masks and other fancy features of Photoshop and upload the edited pictures in Photoshop Express.
