So there I was browsing through BlogEngage and voting on some interesting article, when I came upon a post with an animation on YouTube titled Pigeon: Impossible, which had me in stitches.
I tried to explain this funny short to a friend of mind and they just didn’t get it, so they asked me if I could put it on my iPod to show them, hmmm, now I wasn’t sure if this was possible, so I searched the net and after several websites claiming they knew how it could be done, but they didn’t seem to work, I found myself on a website with a download of a Free YouTube to iPod Convertor.
Now I did have my doubts on whether this would actually work, but I shouldn’t of!
The program is so easy to use just download it, install it and run it, yes it’s that simple, then all your need to do is copy the URL of the video on YouTube and then add the downloaded and converted video to your iTunes, easy!
The output files are saved in MP4 or 3GP formats into the program’s folder in My Documents, and they retain the name of the source video. They are ready to playback on your iPod, PSP, BlackBerry or mobile phone.
So I’ve tried it and it works, I’ve got the funny video on my iPod and my friend loved it. I probably won’t use this a lot, but it will certainly help on tuition videos that are on YouTube, I mean sometimes it’s just easier to have them on my iPod and watch them when Ive got a bit of spare time and this isn’t always when I’m connected to the net.

Great tip to the Windows users
I can’t use it I’m afraid, as I’m on a Mac. But there are some YouTube videos I wouldn’t mind having on my iPhone.
Actually, that Pigeon Impossible move, I was gonna feature it as my next “Friday Flick Find” movie, but now that you’ve spilled the beans, I don’t know, hehe.

There used to be an application for Mac users that was pretty good, called TubeTV. But it stopped working, probably because YouTube changed something. I haven’t bothered to look for a replacement yet

It’s great and saves me time. I usually use keepvid.com to get the real link, then use Internet Download Manager to download the flv file and use converter to convert flv to mp4. I think I can do this just with two or three clicks.
