A Taste Of Reality

Alright, long time, no blogging! So time to pen down a few things. They say it feels better to do so, so will give it a shot! Been occupied and confused about my life off late. It shouldn't be this way, I know, so trying to channelize my energy in the right direction. Drifted again from the main topic.

So, here it is. I am on Youtube and Vimeo now. Of course not under my real name but an alias, c0d3inj3cT. Down the line, if the need may arise, this blog might give you hints to trace down c0d3inj3cT to his real identity. And most probably it will, since that's how it's going to be. I don't really like to use my real name on the net.

Why am I on Vimeo as well if I already am on Youtube? What's the reason to open up an account on these streaming websites?

To answer this. First of all, Vimeo has some advantages it offers over Youtube. Not many folks are aware of Vimeo, but Youtube is as well known as Google now, as we know it :)

Soon, people would be saying it "Youtube It" and not just "Google It"

But if you try and upload a screen recording of your activities on Youtube, let's say an educational video, a video that showcases your skills. You need the viewers to be able to see the video in high resolution and make sense out of it! No matter how catchy is the title of your video, you sure will get a lot of hits with a catchy title, since everyone's curious. But no good comments or thumbs up, if it isn't visible clearly.

This was the reason, I decided to re upload some of my videos on Vimeo.

I have done screen recording on Windows OS, since a long time using softwares like HyperCam. It just struck me after seeing some creative videos on Youtube, with people using fancy transition effects in their videos, that plain and simple videos aren't really that impressive. So, decided to use a more professional Screen Recording and Video Editing Software called Camtasia Studio 7. It's for professionals but it's easy to use at the same time for end users too.

Check out my videos on Vimeo and Youtube. My recent videos will of course be on Vimeo and not Youtube for reasons mentioned above.

It feels great to capture the screen recording of yourself doing some cool stuff on your PC. I decided to make some tutorial videos where I demonstrate some advanced Network Security techniques like Buffer Overflow Exploits.

Videos available at present:

- DNS Cache Poisoning against my ISP :) Just the flaw is shown and not exploited.
- Router Hacks
- SIP Extensions hack using Asterix PBX along with Backtrack
- Buffer Overflow exploit demo for Winamp

The videos are cool with some nice background music. So click and view! :)

It just struck me, been a long time since I made any video. I have been doing a lot of research work lately on topics like GSM Networks and Security Loopholes in it, SS7 Networks and ways of exploiting it, SIM Card Forensics, Cryptography and Mathematics :)
