Capture Google Earth Videos

Capture Google Earth Videos

This is a short video animation captured using the free version of Google Earth.

Wegame, a popular tool for recording video games, was recently updated and it now supports full-screen recording at 30 frames-per-second for smooth video.

Unlike most other screencasting software where you just hit the Record hotkey to start recording, it may take a couple of tries for you to get comfortable with the Wegame capture process.

Launch the Wegame client and connect with your online account – you don’t have to upload your movies online but you still need to login for the software to work.

Then launch Google Earth and you’ll see a green square box inside the Earth program. Hit F6 and the square should disappear meaning the animations are getting recorded. Hit F6 to stop the capture and the recorded video will get saved in your My Documents folder.

If you are recording Google Earth animations on a slow machine, try lowering the frame rate to 15 or 20 and also switch to Half-screen recording. The video is saved in Windows Media format that you can play in almost every media player.

Note: Please read the guidelines for using content from Google Earth and Google Maps, before using the above method. – CosmoCyber

Someone Has Opened Your Inbox To Read Mails ?

Investigate If Someone Has Opened Your Email Inbox To Read Mails

Many surveys have revealed that a large number of companies hire staff snoopers to read and analyze outbound e-mail sent by their own employees.

If you are also worried that someone in your organization is secretly monitoring your email, here’s a simple trick to confirm that suspicion.

This is old but, best trick for nubbies- CosmoCyber

Step 1: Create a dummy web page on an external website like Webs or Weebly. Make sure you don’t share the web address (URL) of that page with anyone else in world.

Step 2: Goto sitemeter.com or statcounter.com (or any web statistics program) and generate a tracking code for the web page created in the previous step. Copy-paste the tracking code in your web page.

Both statcounter and sitemeter are free web analytics services that help you track who visited your web pages and how.

Step 3: Compose a new email message from office contain a hyperlink to the web page that you have just created. Keep the subject and the body of the email message interesting (and provocative) so that if an email snooper exists, he’ll be tempted to check that email before it leaves the office vault.

For instance, the email subject could say “Confidential Company Presentation” and the message body could say “I have upload that presentation. Please download it here.”

And that’s the trap. As soon as the snooper clicks the link in the email to visit the linking web page, that visit will be recorded by your web analytics package. You can then check the IP address and other details to confirm the location of the person who read that “secret” email message.
