get facebook video, without more software
« on: November 17, 2014, 01:47 AM »
I both laughed and cried when I saw this video on facebook.  I wanted to save it to my computer, but couldn't figure out how to do so!

So I had to search for an answer. Now having found that answer, I thought someone else might want to know about it too? So here is the extremely easy instruction:

in the browser's address line   on the video's "homepage":
Replace www with m
 ... load page ...
Right-click the video and click Save target as...

-it doesn't matter if the "m-page" looks weird.

I was amazed that this is all it takes. But it is.
