Online Movies Topic To Be Presented
With his topic about online movies John Carter will speak at a joint meeting of PMUG and the PC computer club. Here's what John says, "Watching movies online can be either an exhilarating or a disappointing experience. Learn how to make it the most enjoyable experience possible. Discover the tips and tricks for downloading, streaming, viewing subtitles, and building a movie library. Find out where to get the highest quality movie. Find out what's okay and what's wrong with Torrents and file sharing. Learn how to protect yourself from lawsuits over copy protected videos."
The meeting will be Saturday, March 24 from 1 to 3 pm in the Prescott Public Library. John's presentation is the first hour. The second hour speaker will be Andy Reti from the PC group, discussing YouTube.
John describes that topic: "Over the last seven years of its existence YouTube has become part of our culture. From funny videos to excerpts from operas, YouTube is providing access to a wide variety of videos. YouTube has played a significant part in spreading the word on uprisings around the world, from the Arab spring to the current bloody violence in Syria. During this hour Andy will present the many uses of the YouTube platform. He will show you how to upload your videos to YouTube, and how to search for videos on specific topics. You'll also see some of the most astonishing and unforgettable videos on YouTube."
