How to download facebook videos

This howto guide gives you the step by step simple procedure to download videos from Facebook. The process is really easy but many of the people don't know how to do it!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 1: Open facebook and select URL of the video you want to download
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=467171059992954&set=vb.100001001932551                        
&type=3&theater

If you observe the link, it is long text, remove the (&set=vb.100001001932551                      
&type=3&theater) part from the url.
So we are just using
(https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=467171059992954)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step2 : Change the name like below  (Just replace photo.php to video/video.php)

  http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=467171059992954

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 3: Go to website downvids

 and paste the modified link in step 2.

After pasting the link click on download button.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 4: Immediately a new box will come and asks for "Download this video" as specified in the above figure(3). Dont click on it, just right click and select "Save link as",  and give any location in your computer to save the video.

That's it. Here the process looks bigger but it can do in a few seconds. Enjoy downloading videos from Facebook directly. We can also use third party software's but not recommended.

Twitter Accounts Hacked!

Twitter is one of the leading micro blogging service and many number of users are giving tweets daily. But now the latest attack victim is twitter, 250000 accounts got compromised. Yesterday twitter information security director, Bob Lord had said that -- 

   This week, we detected unusual access patterns that led to us identifying unauthorized access attempts to twitter user data. We discovered one live attack  and were able to shutdown in process moments later. 

If any one from the attacked users list, twitter reset your password automatically and will ask for a new password from the email. Actually the amount of compromised accounts are less with the actual count as 200 million monthly users. 

By the fact that the twitter said  "it has reset passwords and revoked session keys" of all compromised accounts. Let us see what is it ?

A session token is cryptographic cookie or piece of data used in network communication to identify the active session that the web browser of your computer submits to twitter every time you visit again, so no need enter your username and password one more time. It is really good that twitter has revoked session keys for the user security, in effect to this action you only need to do re login to twitter account, but its gonna be a big problem to the attacker.

As a user what we can do??

Just set a strong password with combination of upper, lower alphabets, numerical, special symbols. Better to use more then 12 letters for happy account.
