Organizing your movie collection is much more than making a list of it.
Apart from helping you to quickly browse through your personal
collection, with a movie organizer you can tag movies, add notes,
browse the Internet for reviews, information, links etc, and much more.
A movie organizer not only helps you to organize your movie collection
on hard disk but also DVDs, CDs and VHS tapes you own.

Like any
software, there are plenty of movie organizers to choose from. The aim
of this post is to bring out the best among them. All the softwares
listed below are freewares.

1. Personal Video Database
is one of the best video cataloguing software that I have found. Adding
a movie to the database is easy - just enter the title of the movie and
it will retrieve the details from online resources, including plot,
actors, director and more.

The main features of this application are:

• It integrates directly to IMDB and pulls information out of it.
• You can also download a DVD cover and posters from various sites.
• The interface is customizable with different viewing options like grid, threaded etc.
• It has different import/export plugins. You can import information from Excel file.
• Movies can be played directly inside this software using the inbuilt media player.

The
best thing about this software is that there is a SDK (software
development kit) available and it supports plugin. So there are lots of
useful plugins that can enhance the functionality of this software.

2. Ant Movie Catalog is a free open source program made to manage your collection of movies DVD, CD, DivX, etc and tapes.

Main features:

•
Import information from Internet (using scripts); by default it
includes scripts for IMDB (US), DVDFR (FR), Allociné (FR), Culturalia
(ES), and lots of others. Users can add their own websites.
• Information importation from various media files (audio & video codec, bitrates, resolution, framerate, size)
• Scripting technology, using Object Pascal language, allowing to modify catalog: Find & replace, moving field values, etc.
•
Export to other formats: HTML (based on a template that you can modify
or create yourself), SQL commands (to re-import data in a DBMS such as
MySQL), CSV (text files, can be used as tables with Microsoft Excel for
example), Origons.com
• Import from other formats: CSV (Microsoft
Excel can create such files, but a plain text file can be used too),
Divx Manager, BaseDVDivx, Origons.com, DVD Profiler (catalogs exported
to XML)
• Can store pictures inside catalog or link to external files.

Ant
Movie Catalog is extremely customizable and it’s ability to use scripts
adds a lot of functionality and new features to this program.

3. Movienizer
allows you to easily find and collect information about your favorite
movies. Do you like some actor/actress? Want to find out where he or
she is also starring? Just launch Movienizer, select the actor/actress
and click “Download” button. You will get the complete list of movies
with the given actor/actress, plus important information and photos.
Because it retrieves information from the Internet you get anything you
wish to know about the movie.

Movienizer will help you keep
track on everything concerning movies. With its “loan manager” you
never forget where your most valuable DVDs wander. Your personal rating
will advise you if some Saturday evening you decide to watch ‘a good
old movie’ with your family or your friends. You can mark the exact
location of your media, define movies that you want to see next, inform
yourself about future projects of your favorite directors.

Movienizer has a plethora of features:

every DVD, Blu-Ray disc, HD-DVD, video cassette, or other media.

• Add a DVD using barcode.
• Play your movies with the built-in player.

4. MyFilms
is a great looking movie organizing software. It can easily retrieve
movie information from IMDB with a single click. Quickly decide which
movie to watch according to rating or genre (type). It can
automatically add movies to the library; all you have to do is just

part and include subtitles if needed. It can also retrieve movie
soundtrack and plays samples from it.

5. Movie Organizer
is a movie cataloguing software that is integrated with it’s own online
movie database called MOODb, apart from IMDB. When you add a movie to
your collection you will be able to search MOODb for information and
images which will be downloaded from the net and filled in
automatically. You can also upload data to MOODb if you find that
something is missing.

One unique feature of this program is that
you can upload your movie collection to MOODb, and get your own
personal Internet URL. Then all your friends can see what movies you
have in your collection at any time.

You must have already seen it, Google’s new favicon. It became the talk of the whole Internet. However, not many people are too happy with the change, including me. I liked the old favicon, colorful and with a capital G, as with Google. Google starts with a capital G, it’s not google (even Windows Live Writer has underlined it with a red wriggling line). The new icon is so bland. If you hate Google’s blue icon like me, then there is a way to get back the old one.

This will work only if you are using Firefox, because the solution to Google’s favicon “issue” is by way of using a userscript. The Google’s Old Favicon userscript was created the same day Google changed it’s favicon, 30th of March 2008. You will need the Greasmonkey script installed to use this userscript.
