How to have music anywhere with Telegram

Many times we want to have music on the cell phone and we do not know how to do it, because here is a way to achieve it and incidentally have the favorite music anywhere.


For this we will use the following web pages:


Youtube

Freemake Downloader

Telegram (Android, Web and iOS)

The process is to download the mp3 files from YouTube with Fremake Download and upload them to a private Telegram channel, with that we would have our music files every time we change cell phones.


The first step is to search YouTube for the video you want to download.

Copy the video link from the address bar.

Then go to the page: Free! Download YouTube Videos with Free YouTube Downloader - Download MP4 Video

There paste the link and download mp3 to the computer.


Create a private channel on Telegram:


Upload the files to the channel and that's it.


As telegram is an application that can be had on any device, mobile computer and that means that what we upload to that channel will be available anywhere.

The best plugin for fast reading on the web

There are countless speed reading courses but they are not worth it, just as there are many tools to learn a language, in the end what matters is the dedication with which you face whatever the challenge is, in terms of speed reading on a computer. I have found this plugin for Chrome that works very well, it is very easy to configure it, it is installed in the browser and the Alt + S keys are pressed and a box appears on the screen with the words that are passing one to another at the speed that is want.


Installing Jetzt - Speed ​​Reader

Well the first thing I do is download it from the GitHub repository


ds300 / jetzt: Speed ​​reader extension for chrome (github.com)


It is downloaded in a local folder can be in C:


Then it goes to browser extensions and enable developer options.


And in the upload button look for the folder. And voila, a logo will appear as follows:

And it can be used with Alt + S and the box will appear as follows:

Well, it is an excellent complement for the browser.


I hope you can get the most out of this speed reading tool.


I know I can extend this post even more, but I will save it for later.

Essential Plugins for Chrome

The plugins that are essential for my chrome are:


Notion Web Clipper:

https://www.notion.so/web-clipper





I use it to capture everything that interests me, be it articles to read later or pages that I will visit often, all classified in Notion in independent databases.

AdBlock:

AdBlock: the best ad blocker - Chrome Web Store (google.com)


It serves to block annoying ads and pop-ups that are distracting and time-wasting.


Marinara:

Marinara: Pomodoro® Assistant - Chrome Web Store (google.com)


It is an excellent pomodoro to control the time you dedicate to some activity. It can be configured and the normal thing is 25 minutes of activity and 5 of rest, I was testing it for some time that way but I changed it and currently use 45 minutes of activity and 15 of rest, each one configures it as it suits him best.


Google translator:

https://gustavcaves.files.wordpress.com/2020/12/screenshot_87.png?w=90


Google Translate - Chrome Web Store


As a rule, the best content is in English and this is of great importance because with a single click or just selecting the text it translates it.




They have been very useful to me.




PS: I will update this list as I change to use them ... Since there are better versions of each utility every year.
