I'm a fan of the "Got Talent" series

Secretly, I didn't told everyone about my favorite talent show. Because I want to make it a surprise, but not anymore! I love both American's and Britain's Got Talent. I don't know why, because all of the contestants are trying hard to be a star. Sometimes, it's funny, dirty and nasty!, sort of... But the important is how ordinary people became a star and win big money but showing of their true talents.

Madonna Decena in Britain's Got Talent

Madonna Decena blows the judges and audience away on Britains Got Talent 2008 with a breathtaking performance of this famous Whitney Houston song..Britains Got Talent 2008.
But this 33 year-old from the Philippines lived up to her billing, as she wowed the judges and audience with her powerful performance and heart-felt story.

Trembling and a little unsure of herself, Madonna walked onto the stage and told everyone her reason for being there.

Six months ago she flew out to Britain in the hope of creating a better life for herself and two young daughters. Agonisingly she had to leave her precious children behind with their grandparents in the Philippines, until she had raised enough money to send for them.

Her rendition of I Will Always Love You brought a collective lump to the auditorium's throat.

"I know you were singing that song for your babies" said a tearful Amanda.

YouTube Hack: How to make your videos to HQ?

March 2008, YouTube launches their new video format called HQ or High Quality. This new video format offers a better video definition (480x360) in the AVC format for any video uploaded after this date.

According to the YouTube official blog, YouTube will decide which videos are capable of this improved quality based on the standard of the original upload. Users can choose "always show me higher quality when available" in their Account pages to switch automatically to the better quality.

So it's possible because YouTube will choose which video would be in HQ, but there is a solution. I found this video on YouTube, specifically at my Home page of my YouTube account shows how to make any video into a HQ.



The code is simple. Just place this "&fmt=18" to a URL of the video and BOOM! a HQ video.
