Free Video Entertainment

Sorry for the long time without a post, school has been really busy recently, and I just haven't had any time. I'll kick things off with possibly the most popular way to entertain yourself on the internet, Videos. When you think of internet videos, the first thing you'll think is Youtube. It is a great site, but it isn't the best in all situations. Here is a site for every situation.


Youtube is great when it comes to browsing independent videos, viral video, and just plain funny stuff. Youtube is mostly short (under 15 minute) videos, and it is mostly just people with webcams or video cameras, but if you are willing to look, the funniest things you will find are out there on Youtube. Don't expect anything inappropriate, because Youtube is heavily moderated.


Vimeo is Youtube's competitor. While Vimeo has a smaller selection, they make up for it with what they allow to be published. They moderate it less heavily, so some great videos stay in that Youtube would normally take out. Another plus, some schools and businesses block Youtube, but often, they don't block Vimeo.


Hulu is by far the best way to legally watch TV on the internet. It carries most shows that run on TV, and it is completely free, except for the few adds you have to watch during the video. Hulu typically carries the 5 most recent episodes from a TV show, and they are all in high quality. When you make an account, you can connect to Facebook and easily share your thoughts about episodes. Hulu even carries some movies that are usually not great, but some of them are my favorites. If you want to be able to see any episode of any show at any time in HD, you can subscribe to Hulu Plus. It costs $7.99 USD per month, and it even gives you access to great movies.

70 GB Free Online Storage

Lets face it readers, we aren't made of money, and when our hard disks are full of music and funny pictures we get online, we can't just give up right there. I have done some investigation, and have found sites that give you free storage. Don't worry about their legitimacy, because I took the time to check them all out and make sure they all work like they advertise. Because this storage is online, you can access it from anywhere, and often, you can share your stored information with whoever you want. Here is a list:

Mimedia: 7 free GB of storage that you can share with anyone you wish.
The Mimedia icon

ADrive: Get this, 50 GB free storage, just make sure to select the free plan and not the 14 day free trial. It comes with an easy user interface, and you can share your files as well.
ADrive's logo and signature storage

Dropbox: 2 GB of free storage, but probably the easiest one out there to use, and my personal favorite.
The Dropbox logo

Box: 5 GB of free storage. There is a 25 MB limit on each file, so this is recommended for images, various documents, and smallish video and audio files.
The Box logo

Amazon Cloud Drive: Made by the famous Amazon.com, you get 5 GB free to do whatever you wish with. Also, all mp3s you download from Amazon are automatically stored in your drive.
The Amazon Cloud Drive logo

FileDen: 1 GB free storage that can be shared with whoever you want.
The FileDen logo

Well, that's all I have for you guys. There are more file storage sites out there for you, but they are for specific files, or require you to own a PC, but I would still check them out. Just Google: Free Online Storage.

Here is the final tally: 70 GB Free!

Adam

Lets get back into it with a Stumbleupon Favorites update.

Making a Meme Using Meme Builder

Memebase is fun and all, but you just thought of your own meme, and you really want your idea to become reality. Have no fear, because Memebase has just what you want, a Meme Builder!


This tool is extremely easy to use, and the button is located just below the huge MEMEBASE logo. All you have to do is pick from their vast selection of pictures, and caption them.


After you are done making them, save them and send them around to friends or other people that would like them. If you want, feel free to post the link to your meme in the comments and it just might end up in one of our future blog posts!


Just for fun, here are some memes that I made using Meme Builder!





I didn't actually use Meme Builder on this one, but I thought you might like it anyway.

Flash Game: ShellShock Live

This is a game this is very much like the multiplayer game, Tanks, and some would say it is just a ripoff of it. Well, it pretty much is, but they have added one really cool feature that makes this game really stand out. Instead of having multiplayer for just the 2-4 people sitting in front of the computer, you can play this online with other people. The game features a variety of terrain, weapons, amount of players, and game settings. It has many factors that are involved with the gameplay, so it takes a while to get boring. This game holds my attention for about two hours every day (though I don't play it every day), so it is a great time kill. Now, without further delay, ShellShock Live:

Youtube Channel

Hey readers! A great new development has happened to the Good Thinking Network, we hava a YouTube channel! Here is the link: Good Thinking Channel. That's not all, I uploaded a video that I made with the help of my two brothers called Gun Fight. It seems like an intense action sequence in the beginning, but it all ends with one comedic gun shot at the end. The funny thing is, it wasn't supposed to be a comedy, but it is just hilarious.

PreHacked Flash Games

Is there that one Flash Game online that you just can't beat? There is a solution, Arcade PreHacksArcade PreHacks is just like a normal online flash game site, except all the games have been hacked to give you things like infinite time, lives, ammo, or money, or just make it so you can't lose.


It is pretty simple. People that are pretty fluent with Java or Flash take the game's script, and edit it to give you an upper hand in some sort of a way. Just about any game that you can find online has been hacked by someone and put on Arcade PreHacks. One thing that I would personally have to recommend is actually playing the game first on a site like Armor Games or Newgrounds first. If you just play the hacked version first, you can't really appreciate how much easier it is, and it will just fell like a ridiculously easy game. One last thing is if there isn't a hack for a game that you like, you can request it on their site using the Request Your Hacks button. 



Now, just to give you a taste of it, here is the hacked version of GemCraft, the flash game from the most recent post. Remember, play the non-hacked GemCraft first!

Flash Game- GemCraft

This flash game is pure strategy, and it takes alot of thought, I have never got even close to beating. It is called, GemCraft. It is a tower defense game. That means you place the towers or turrets along the path the enemy has to travel to get to their objective, and the towers/turrets operate on their own to try to destroy the enemy before they get to the objective. The towers can usually be upgraded, but in gem craft, it is more complicated. You have to combine gems and place them in towers to get the correct mix that is best at defeating enemies. Here is the game:





Enjoy! Feel free to post how far you have gotten in the comments.

Ramirez!

For anyone that has ever played the campaign on Modern Warfare 2, you know how annoying it is to hear, "Ramirez! Do this and that!". This is one of the games flaws, where you are the one that does everything. This inspired a meme called the "Ramirez" meme. Here are some examples:




Making one of these memes is actually not very hard. There is even a picture that can help you make one in three seconds!


It is pretty self explanatory. For more great memes, go to the Memebase section of the Cheezburger website. Have fun!

Goodbye Time Kills, Hello Flash Games

I realize that the time kills section of Good Thinking put nicely, sucks. Due to the fact that you guys like my flash gaming posts way better than my time kills posts, I have turned the Time Kills page into the Flash Games page! It should be way more fun, and have the potential to kill alot more time than just some suggestions. To start it off, here is a game that will also be available on the Flash Games section.

Crush the Castle 2:


Crush the Castle, based of Castle Clout, was the original inspiration for popular games such as Angry Birds. The basis of these "Siege Games" is that you fling a projectile towards the enemy fortifications, and try to either destroy it or kill the beings inside. It is a very addictive game format, and I hope you enjoy!
