Online File Conversion – Zamzar…

zamzar-logoIf you’re like me, you get disks full of videos that folks want placed on websites – and they’re never in the right format.

Them: “You mean you can’t make those videos in RealVideo stream and look like a million bucks?”

Me: “Um, I, uh, well – no…”

Enter Zamzar. While it’s not perfect, it is free (again, my favorite price) and it’s easy to use, with pretty good results.

You simply browse to the files you want to convert (in my case, a lot of mp4′s that needed to be made into flv,) pull down a menu to what your end needs are, enter your email address, click convert and wait until they send you an email with the download links. Sweet.

They don’t accept every file type (although I have yet to find one they don’t) and the free version only allows 100mb per upload, but you can get a lot done with this little goodie. Plus, it’s free. Did I mention free? I like that!

There is a paid option, but I have yet to really need it.

It’s online and it does it’s thang in the background, which is good for multitasking.

Check it out at zamzar.com.
