Use fraps for custom gaming videos:
If you are a gamer and have just performed the ultimate kill and want
others to view this when fraps is what you need. This app works with
DirectX and OpenGL games and will let you see how many FPS (frame per
second), take screen snapshots as well as full video recordings. The
snapshots are time stamped and the video can do up to 1024x768. Check it
out here:

Spoof your caller-id number:
Various caller-id spoofing companies are poping up and going down like
crazy. The reason is they are bringing up a very controversial issue,
namely the ability to have your phone number show up to a terminating
party with anything desired.
How do these companies do it? The typical way is anyone who has a trunked
line (ie- T1 PRI, Channelized T1, etc) has the ability to set their
caller-id information. The reason is that a PRI (primary rate
interface) supports 24 phone lines and it requires hardware to multiplex
the phone lines over this digital connection. This is what PBX\'s typically
use within businesses. This allows your boss to call out and have the
caller-id have his particular name or whatnot on that call.
Here are services that are selling this service:

Other spoofing methods that have been seen are:
* Using hacked cell-phones that allow you to change in flash the number of that particular phone for
caller-id.
* VoIP phone service is typically prone to problems with this, such as
ones that use SIP protocol where the phone itself provides the caller-id
info, unlike MGCP.

Hiding domain registration information:
Many times you want to buy a domain but dont want to have legitimate info
in the registration since one of the biggest resources for spammers are
domain registrations. Many registrars will allow you to hide this
information for a fee. A few have been known to allow you to use their
name servers and all their info. One that was used to cover up camophone
is registerfly. Check them out here:

Another well known registrar that allows you to pay to hide is:
http://www.godaddy.com
