Ever wished you could relive those nostalgic mornings watching your favorite shows, perfectly synced to today’s clock? Well, I’ve got something cool for you: the Retro TV Sync Player, a web-based video player that brings the past to life with a modern twist. Let’s dive into what it does, how it looks, and why you’ll want to give it a spin.

What’s This All About?

Imagine you’ve got a stash of old TV recordings—like those 90s cartoon blocks from Agros Cartoon Connection—and you want to watch them as if they’re airing right now. The Retro TV Sync Player lets you do just that. You pick a video from your local drive, set its original start time (say, 6:00 AM), and it’ll figure out where you’d be in the broadcast based on your current system time. If it’s 9:58 AM now, it jumps to 3 hours and 58 minutes in—unless that’s past the end, then it stops at the finish line. Neat, right?

Here’s the rundown of what it does:

  • Load Any Video: Browse your files and pick an MP4 (or any video your browser supports).
  • Set Start Time: Enter when the video “aired” (e.g., “9:00 AM”) in a simple AM/PM format.
  • Sync on Play: Hit play, and it jumps to where you’d be if it started at that time today.
  • Jump to Now: A handy button lets you skip to the current time’s spot anytime.
  • Time Displays: See your system time, video playback time, and the “real” broadcast time—all in sync.

Try It Out!

Ready to test it? I’ve hosted it online so you can play with it yourself. Head over to this link:

Test the Retro TV Sync Player Here!

Grab a video from your collection (maybe that old VHS rip?), load it up, set a start time, and see how it feels to watch the past in the present. It’s perfect for reliving those Saturday morning vibes or syncing up any timed recording.

So if you followed my previous post you have purchased your a domain pointed it to GoDaddy and have installed WordPress, this blog post will cover on how to obtain a free SSL certificate on your GoDaddy blog.

FREE SSL CERTIFICATE GODADDY

Do I need a SSL certificate for my site?

An SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) Certificate adds that little padlock to the top of your screen that you may have noticed on banking websites.  The reason why it’s important is Google at the end of 2017 flags websites not encrypted with SSL as unsafe. The reason for this is Google loves uses and wants to ensure that it’s customers have the best safest user experience possible.

As of 2019, 93% of all website traffic is now encrypted with https so at the moment there is still a 7% Gap.

Google Encrypted Traffic Around the World

Benefits of using SSL

As stated Google is doing this for it’s customer base so the benefit for you to switch to using SSL is Google is going to favour websites that are coming through with a SSL certificate, so it’s extremely important for ranking of your blog posts, in fact I would say it is a must.



Can I get SSL for free?

The good news is cloudflare which is used by over 16 million domains world wide, offers various services in order to speed up your website, without needing to switch hosting providers. They also have a free plan for 1 domain, which will provide you with a free SSL certificate. And they are proud to be the first Internet platform security company to offer SSL protection absolutely free.

How do I add an SSL certificate to my website?

The following steps are required:

  • Sign up for Cloudflare.
  • Get your free plan and point your domain name servers to cloudflare.
  • Install Cloudflare WordPress plugin.
  • Install HTTPS Redirection WordPress Plugin.
  • Wait a couple of hours.
  • Completed.

Use this video guide, as it will take you step by step on the points above on how to get your free SSL certificate for your GoDaddy WordPress Blog:



Summary

So getting your free SSL certificate for your GoDaddy blog is a simple process, and is essential in today’s blogging world.

What is an External Domain?

Most of you should be familiar with what is a domain name is for example www.facebook.com.

Now in the context we are talking about is, registering a domain name not through GoDaddy name register but with another provider such as crazydomains.

The benefit of doing this is your are not locked into GoDaddy for your domain name as well as your hosting and putting all services in one basket.

Where Do I get a Domain Name from?

As discussed you can get your domain name registered from places like crazydomains.



How do I point my external Domain to GoDaddy Hosting?

The following steps are required:

  • Register your domain name.
  • Add external Domain to GoDaddy DNS hosting.
  • Update nameservers provided to your external domain.
  • Update DNS record to point to your GoDaddy hosted server IP.
  • Create domain and GoDaddy to create document root system for external domain.
  • Install WordPress into that filesystem and do initial setup.

Use this video guide, as it will take you step by step on how to Point your External Domain to GoDaddy:



Summary

Pointing your external domain to GoDaddy is messy and each time i forget how to do it again, so I made this tutorial as a reference to save myself and hopefully yourself some time.

Once you have your website installed it is time to configure your website with a free SSL certificate.
