YouTube On the Go

Everyone remembers what it was like to get that cool new gadget when they were younger: all you wanted to do was play with it and show it off to all of your friends.

Today's kids are no different, except instead of showing off a nice new basketball or a cool bike, they have new cell phones and touchscreen MP4 players.

One of the kids in the lab recently got a new touchscreen MP4 player, one that not only plays music but also holds photos and can play videos, a cool little gadget.

Curious on how to get videos on the new device, a member of the CLC staff showed him a program that converted YouTube videos into the proper MP4 format, allowing him to take his favorite videos with him wherever he goes! By the end of kids' time, the youth was able to use the program on his own, downloading and converting a music video, a wrestling video and a highlight from a Boston Bruins' playoff game.
