MegaVideo downloader/premium link generator

This is another lazy post.. I'm copying it from my DP thread.
I'm creating new site for downloading from MegaVideo that support download manager/download accelerator.

Site's URL:
http://www.megavideodownloader.com

You can insert the MegaVideo URL on the provided text box or you can directly accessing it by modifying MegaVideo URL.

Original Megavideo URL:
Code:

http://www.megavideo.com/?v=X0HUC7R9

paste this URL to your browser's URL:
http://www.megavideodownloader.com/?v=X0HUC7R9

The site will automatically check the link if it's valid or not(deleted).
Please do test it and let me know about the speed and the video downloaded (is it corrupted or not).
Since this script is new.. I need to know your feedback.. once I'm sure that the script is working perfectly, I'll add another server and probably adding Megaupload downloader also (depending on the traffic I get).

Devzed.com server is down!

Just make a quick update to those who want to visit Devzed (and other service under it)..
Devzed server is down.. I got message from hosting provider that main node has power supply off thus our server is down.
I hope this downtime doesn't take longer than 24 hours. If it takes that much time to recover the power supply issue, I'll move (momentarily) Devzed server to another backup server.
I will update when I got another (hopefully good) news from the provider.

EDIT : wow.. they're fast.. it's up again

Quick notes: phpize: command not found

OS: CentOS 5.4 Final
phpize command is used to compile php modules like ffmpeg-php. When we got error like this:
-bash: phpize: command not found
it means phpize is not installed yet (even if you already have php working n the machine)

Work-around:
install phpize by issuing this command:
yum install php-devel

That's it.. phpize will be available afterward.

As we know, Twitter is great micro-blogging platform and have a great potential as a marketing tool. Getting mentioned on Twitter will eventually increase visitor exposure for your site. Knowing how many times does your site mentioned on Twitter can give you a means of measurement how's your site popularity among Twitter users. Unfortunately, Twitter search feature didn't allow you to see it. With some little tweaks on Twitter search, I managed to show how many times a site has been mentioned on Twitter. I've been integrating it on my Advanced SEO Statistics site. Here's the screen-shot on Advanced SEO Statistics site "Social Bookmarking" parts (the site being checked was Kaskus.us -- The Largest Indonesian Community Forum):

There's also one new feature there, i.e, you can download the SEO Statistics report in form of a PDF file. I know that this feature is a very old feature of Xinureturns.com.. I'm just too lazy to implemented it on my SEO statistics checker site. You can find the link at the bottom right of the report. Here's the screen-shot:

and here's the PDF may look like (taken from Onemanga SEO statistics report):

Nice isn't it? Try it now!

This is another short notes for myself for future use.
Today I have to use some Geo targeting for Friendster Private Profile Viewer so the chat will show on front page only if the user IP address come from Philippines, Indonesia or unknown country.

I decided to use MaxMind GeoLite Country so it doesn't need to call Geo location API from other site.
This is simple instruction how to install and use it.
  1. Download GeoLite country database from : http://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLiteCountry/GeoIP.dat.gz
  2. extract/gunzip it
  3. upload to your site home directory (public_html)
  4. download geoip.inc from here: http://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/api/php/geoip.inc
  5. upload geoip.inc in the same folder as GeoIP.dat (result from step 2) on your website home directory
  6. use it!

this is some code example:
<?php
require_once("geoip.inc");
$gi = geoip_open("./GeoIP.dat",GEOIP_STANDARD);
$countrycode=geoip_country_code_by_addr($gi, $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
if (($countrycode=="PH")||(strlen($countrycode)<2)||($countrycode=="ID")) {
//do some geo targeting here
}
geoip_close($gi);
?>

IE8: Remove SpeedBit Search on new tabs

I myself got this problem, every time a new tab is opened on IE8 it always connect to http://search.speedbit.com/tab/.
It's quite annoying since it slowdown the new tab loading. Googling around, this problem occurs after we installed one of SpeedBit software like DAP (download accelerator plus) or Video accelerator. Even if we've uninstalled their software, this SpeedBit search is still there.
I've been looking the net and there's no tutorial on removing this SpeedBit search from IE8 (well, at least there's none on my Google first page search result). Mostly tutorials are for Firefox family where you can simply type "about:config" on the URL input and reset "keyword.URL" value.
So, this is it.. if you feel annoyed like me, there's simple way to remove SpeedBit search from IE8:
  1. open windows registry editor
  2. go to this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AboutURLs
  3. modify the value to "res://mshtml.dll/blank.htm"
  4. close regedit.. try opening IE8 and open a new tab.. now it will show a blank page (not too aesthetic but it works.. ;P )

Bye bye SpeedBit search!
