Google Swiffy – Flash to HTML5 Converter

Google has launched its new service called Google Swiffy in the labs. Google was constantly involved in development of HTML5. HTML5 was revolutionary and has so many new capabilities that the flash contents are no longer needed as these can be coded using HTML5 tags along with some JavaScript. HTML5 enabled animations and interactivity in browsers and devices that did not support flash. Even the iPhone’s iOS doesn’t support Flash and hence HTML5 is a sigh of relief for the iPhone users.

If you have a website with lot of Flash objects and if you’re worried of the new HTML5 invasion, then you don’t have to worry anymore. Answer is Google Swiffy. Google Swiffy is a flash to HTML5 converter. It is still in its early version and hence not yet ready to convert complicated SWFs (flash files) to HTML5 and it may take some time for it to convert flash games and programs. But you can easily convert simple banners and animations that you have in SWF formats. Just upload the SWF file and get the HTML code. By converting SWF to HTML5, you can make your website view-able on any browser that supports SVG, JavaScript and CSS3.

I just wish this comes out of the labs as a fully fledged SWF-to-HTML5 converter.

Online FLV to Other format converter

In my last post on downloading you tube videos, i gave a small tricky website that does all the job of downloading movies in .flv format. Downloading in .flv format is not always handy. And downloading in .flv and then converting it to other using softwares is lot of work. So here are 3 simple websites for your simple work. Clicks away are your videos in your desired formats.

  • http://www.flv2mp3.com/
    Use this site if you only want the audio track from it. Enter the link and the website will give you back another link. Save that link and you will get that particular video’s audio track only. That too in a convenient .mp3 format
  • http://www.videoconvertx.com/
    Enter the link of the video that you want to download. Select the output format of that video. And you’ll get that! As easy as that. Takes no time.
  • http://www.convertdirect.com/
    This site is a combination of www.videoconvertx.com and downloadyoutubevideos.com which i told in my last post. You can either download video directly in .flv format or you can get it converted and download in your desired output. If you are downloading the converted video, then you need to give your email id to which the link will be sent to. Better hang on to the other 2 sites given above.

Isn’t that easy?
