How to Create YouTube Playlists without Logging In



Learn how to quickly create a YouTube playlist with your favorite YouTube videos but without logging into your Google Account.
How do you share a collection of YouTube videos in an email newsletter or on the social media. The best option is that you create a new YouTube playlist, add all the videos and then share the link (URL) of the playlist. The privacy of the YouTube playlist can be set to Unlisted if you would like to hide your video list from search engines.
It is easy to build playlists in YouTube but they are always connected to your YouTube channel or Google Account – you cannot create a playlist on YouTube anonymously without logging in to your account.
There’s however a simple URL hack that will let you create “virtual” playlists on YouTube – they are like regular playlists except that they are not connected to any Google account and you can still add or remove videos on the fly.
Create YouTube Playlists on the fly
All YouTube videos have a unique video ID and you can create a concatenated list of these video IDs, separated by commas, to create a new YouTube playlist from the corresponding videos.
For instance, here are 5 YouTube videos (video IDs are in red) that I would like to add to a playlist but one that is not associated with my YouTube channel:
1. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjRTSkBHnyo
2. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhU5y7huAY8
3. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9T_EqwQnZY0
4. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQKvro1Wz-E
5. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXLYIw-IU8I
All I have to do is take the video IDs and put them in the URL below:
http://www.youtube.com/watch_videos?video_ids=ID1,ID2,ID3,ID4…
So the new YouTube playlist will be located at:
https://www.youtube.com/watch_videos?video_ids=sjRTSkBHnyo,fhU5y7huAY8…
This is like any other playlist on YouTube – anyone can share it, embed it or even copy the playlist to their own Google Account.

How to Use the NETSH Command to Change from Static IP Address to DHCP

You can use the netsh command in Windows 2000 to script the process of changing a computer from a static Internet Protocol (IP) address to Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or vice versa. The netsh command accomplishes this task without the need to restart the computer. This feature is particularly useful for laptops that move from one environment to another, when it is necessary to use statically assigned IP addresses at one location and DHCP assigned IP addresses at another. To switch the specified adapter from a static address to DHCP, type the following command: netsh interface ip set address “Local Area Connection” dhcp NOTE: Typing this command changes the interface named “Local Area Connection” to DHCP. To display all of the adapters in the computer with their current IP addresses to determine the correct adapter name, type the following command: Netsh interface ip show config To change to a static address, type the following command: netsh interface ip set ...

Live inside technology

Microsoft doesn’t just want you to use the latest Windows; it wants you to live inside of it. The company has revealed the HoloLens, a wearable holographic computer launching alongside Windows 10 that lets you project Windows apps onto the surfaces of your home or office. Holographic Fetus & Other Incredible 3D Tech 3D scanners are enabling us to see all kinds of things we’ve never dreamed of witnessing before. Microsoft outlined some of the uses of HoloLens in a demo video, which showcases how Windows apps can come to life once you put the headset on. Some examples include the ability to see Windows app icons on your kitchen cabinet, project a Skype call onto your wall and even physically manipulate a Minecraft world that’s laid out on your coffee table. The HoloLens itself is a black headset with a circular plastic headband and sunglass-like, see-through lenses in the front. The device uses a “high-end” processor and GPU, with an additional holographic processing uni...

The era of Minimalism in Web Design

The extraordinary brashness (or rather, brash extraordinariness) of overtly stylized webs with all the bells and whistles on never arouses indifference in their beholder. While some old-school designers continue in their attempt to create websites with spellbinding effects and to adorn their designs with colorful and glossy elements, the advocates of flat designs are growing at a brisk rate. Minimalism may or may not have replaced extravagance in web design as yet, but it is, without doubt, a trend that has only been getting trendier. In its bare bones, you call a design flat or minimal when it gets rid of its stylized and glossy attributes . What’s left is subtle, yet, equally fascinating. However, it has to be done right otherwise it just turns out to be dull. So, you remove the effects like shadows, fancy fonts, multiple colors, and any and all scream-out-loud effects, etc. Flat Designs Is What Everyone Seems To Be Leaning Towards World Baking Day There are reasons to...
