If you’re looking for new videos for your iPod, then you could do much worse than heading to Videofindr. Despite it being in Spanish (a slight inconvenience, unless of course you are actually Spanish), there’s a growing database of iPod-formatted videos to choose from. |

As you’d imagine, there’s no shortage of Star Wars fan films to be found online. After working our way through a choice selection though, this is one that we deemed to be worthy of inclusion here. It’ll need converting for your iPod, but it’s well worth the effort. |

Spongebob Squarepants |
|
|
|
Spongebob is one of those cartoons that somehow manages to appeal to both children and older people who should probably know better. If you’re of ‘a certain age’ and have yet to experience its many delights, then we recommend you download this classic episode now. |

|

Now only a matter of a few weeks away, one of the most exciting movie trilogies we’ve seen for a while comes thundering to its natural conclusion. This fresh trailer on the Apple site is well worth downloading for your iPod. |

Doctor Who |

|
Okay, so this Doctor Who fan film isn’t going to put David Tennant out of a job, but it’s genuinely okay, and it’s got Daleks in it and everything. |

This is video perfection. 45 minutes of people talking about UFOs and showing shaky camcorder footage of lights in the sky. Simply put, it’s what your video iPod was made for. |

It’s independent and very low-fi, but there’s a lot of charm to be found in this four-part sit com about a writer struggling to get his series made. Click on the link above and then scroll down to find all four of the episodes - which are already formatted for the iPod. |

This 45-minute long video was originally shown on the Discovery Channel and it’s a real find, as it deals with the history of the iPod better than anything else we’ve seen. Download, kick back and enjoy… |

We spend a long time on Viewdo, and we’ve learnt everything from how to tie a Windsor knot to the best way to make a paper airplane, but this is our current love – doing a packpalm card trick. It takes a bit of practice, but it’s well worth the effort. |

You may have seen this video before, as it’s been floating around YouTube for quite some time now, but it’s still worth downloading for your iPod. The Real Simpsons is the animated intro to the hit show brought to life and, like a lot of things on the Internet, we’re not sure why we like it, but we do. |

One for the football fans here, as this is, as the name suggests, 10 of the finest goals by one of the best footballers playing in the English Premiership. Renowned for long-range scorching shots, each one is an utter gem. |

If you’ve never seen the Will It Blend? videos before, then you’re in for a treat. As the title suggests, someone puts an untypical object into a blender (golf club, lightbulb, etc.) and sees if it blends. In this case it’s an iPod and it’s amazing to see the end result. |

It’s a Robert Rodriguez/Quentin Tarantino double bill and that’s really all you need to know. Shocking, stunning and sure to be utterly brilliant, this trailer has to be seen to be believed – just don’t blame us if you find it too disturbing… blame them, they’re used to it by now. |

Imagine, if you will, that Star Wars had been made in the 1920s. This short film only lasts a minute or so, but it’s still a hilarious and perfectly edited imagination of what it would have been like. |

One of the biggest Star Wars fan films out there and proof that just because it’s free and created by amateur filmmakers, that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s unwatchable. |

By the law of diminishing returns, the final films in trilogies tend to be stinkers. Checking out the Shrek 3 trailer though, gives every indication that this is a law the makers of the film haven't heard about. |

We make no apologies for yet another link to the Google Video site when the quality is this good. George Lucas In Love is a short film based on a series of events that might (or might not) have inspired him to write the Star Wars script… |
