covering a range of subjects from building a Hackintosh to slowing down
Justin Bieber. Here are the most popular original videos from 2010.

How to Downgrade Your iPhone 3G[S] from iOS 4 to iOS
3.1.3<http://gawker.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=7a43fa5f9b&e=7ac8023dbc>

Evidently a lot of you weren't happy with the performance of your previous
generation iPhone once you upgrade to iOS 4 as downgrading your iPhone 3G
easily won first place as our most popular original how-to video. In fact,
it was one of the most popular posts of the year overall. While Apple's made
many improvements to iOS 4 to improve performance on older iPhones, if
you're still not happy you can use this simple method to downgrade. Be sure
to check out the full
post<http://gawker.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=2746044619&e=7ac8023dbc>for
everything you'll need.
How to Build a Hackintosh Mac and Install OS X in Eight Easy
Steps<http://gawker.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=c49dbb74e9&e=7ac8023dbc>

Unsurprisingly, our Hackintosh video was one of the most popular Lifehacker
original how-to video of the year. We put more work into this video than any
other so it's great to see it near the top of the list. If you want a new
Mac but don't want to sink thousands of dollars into it, we'll walk you
through the entire process on video. Visiting the post
itself<http://gawker.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=26b5f6e919&e=7ac8023dbc>will
give you the video broken up into each step as well to make it easier
to handle this project over time. If you've never built or hacked your own
Mac before, it's a lot of fun and a great way to learn the ins and outs of
the operating system.
How to Disable Facebook
Places<http://gawker.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=d4a92a3a7e&e=7ac8023dbc>

[image: Most Popular Lifehacker How to Videos of 2010]
Facebook Places wasn't exactly at the height of popularity when it first
came out as several aspects of the new feature caused a privacy scare. Since
Facebook's privacy options aren't exactly the easiest to navigate, we
thought we'd offer our assistance in helping you disable Facebook Places if
you decided it just wasn't for you. While it's been pointed out that the
feature technically cannot be disabled, this video points out how to render
it essentially useless. If you love Facebook Places, keep enjoying it. If
you don't, we've got you covered.
How to Get Started with Usenet in Three Simple
Steps<http://gawker.us1.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=f5352c4ecf&e=7ac8023dbc>

I didn't make a lot of friends by breaking what some call the "first rule of
Usenet" (which, like in *Fight Club*, is "you don't talk about Usenet" — you
can read my argument against this in the full
post<http://gawker.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=f7dd8846f6&e=7ac8023dbc>if
you're curious). Nonetheless, it wound up being one of our more
popular
video how-tos. Usenet is a really wonderful way to find and download content
online. While the video above explains how to set up your Usenet client, the
full post<http://gawker.us1.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=3252400aee&e=7ac8023dbc>provides
instructions on finding a provider and finding content as well. If
you're tired of BitTorrent and want something a bit more reliable, you ought
to give Usenet a try.
How to Install Android on an iPhone in Six Easy
Steps<http://gawker.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=e67d5f371e&e=7ac8023dbc>

Although Android hardware has greatly improved over the past year, Apple
hardware generally has a lust-worthy quality that few manufacturers can
match. For that reason, it isn't a surprise that there's an interest on
running a more open operating system like Android on a beautiful device like
the iPhone. While there are several drawbacks to running Android on Apple
hardware at the moment, it looks promising. If you've got an old iPhone
lying around and want to give it a try, watch the video above to learn how.

Android offers a wealth of organization options so once you have a bunch of
apps installed, organization can get a little bit overwhelming. This video
demonstrates great organization tips, tricks, and strategies to make
navigating your Android more pleasant.
How to Play SNES on Your iPad in Four Easy
Steps<http://gawker.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=eb638d165b&e=7ac8023dbc>

As a long-time SNES devotee, I jailbroke my iPad for the sole purpose of
playing Super Nintendo games on the go. Being able to use a Bluetooth
Wiimote provided the physical buttons needed to make this worthwhile, plus
the iPad's large screen didn't hurt either. While this process is very
specific to SNES, there are plenty of other emulators available to the
jailbreak community. If you jailbreak and install SNES on your iPad, you'll
have no problem doing the same for additional emulators. *Note: the video
demonstrates an outdated jailbreaking process. Make sure you research the
correct jailbreaking process for the version of iOS that your device is
running.*
How to Run Windows, Mac, and Linux Side by Side and Pain-Free with
VirtualBox<http://gawker.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=6a747311b9&e=7ac8023dbc>

Triple booting is great, but the need to restart when you frequently want to
move between operating systems can be a pain. Instead, using VirtualBox, you
can run Windows, Mac, and Linux, side by side, simultaneously. Check out the
video above for an overview, and the full
post<http://gawker.us1.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=f598e23c2f&e=7ac8023dbc>for
a step by step guide.
How to Silence Vuvuzela Horns in World Cup
Broadcasts<http://gawker.us1.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=c24fd82be5&e=7ac8023dbc>

It's been awhile, but remember the vuvuzela craze during the World Cup this
year? Yeah, it's hard to get the annoying sounds of those horns out of your
head. Fortunately, you can at least get them out of your videos,
and—depending on your television—right out of your television. This video
demonstrates how to use a few EQ filters to virtually eliminate the vuvuzela
from the World Cup broadcasts this year, or any you encounter in the future.
How to Create Your Own Slowed-Down Ambient
Epics<http://gawker.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=5c3b2d4e62&e=7ac8023dbc>

[image: Most Popular Lifehacker How to Videos of 2010]
Who knew that Justin Bieber sounded so good when slowed down by 800%? What
was originally believed to be a hoax turned out to be real: you can truly
create some great ambient tracks by slowing down songs by incredible
amounts. Want to give it a shot? Check out the video above.
Make and Host Your Own Customized, Personal Landing Page in a Few
Minutes<http://gawker.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=251e609e1dba3888b86c21cc8&id=6e2864f32f&e=7ac8023dbc>

over some very cool services, but if you want full control and
portability over the personal landing page you create with either tool you
just can't have it. We thought it would be great to have an open source,
portable alternative that you could host virtually anywhere—so we made one.

One of the most annoying problems connected to laptop ownership is keeping
your body oils off of the keyboard and trackpad. While we received several
great reader suggestions, one of the best and simplest was using a Mr. Clean
Magic Eraser to solve the problem. It worked so well we decided to document
the process and show you how it works in this video.

When the iPad was just a rumor waiting to be hatched, I got impatient and
decided I wanted to make a touchscreen tablet of my own. I hackintoshed an
old HP Mini 1000 I had lying around, removed the keyboard, and installed a
cheap touchscreen overlay. To make it a bit more tablet-like, I wrote some
software in Adobe AIR to create a heads up display (HUD). If you want to see
how it works, watch the video above. If you want to make one yourself and
use/improve upon the software I made, check out the full

As usual, Apple has some pretty strict specifications for the video you can
play on their hardware. The release of AirPlay—Apple's new video streaming
technology—certainly didn't change this. So, if you want to make all your
video AirPlay-compatible, here's how to do it.
