GifYoutube: create short looping .gifs from YouTube clips

GifYoutube is very easy to use, just find your clip on YouTube, go to the GifYoutube website and paste the YouTube link into the box on the front page. You can then set the starting point of your gif using a sider or typing in the time in the box, with a handy preview of the video to help you. Use the right-hand slider to set the length of the clip (maximum 15 seconds)

Example

First I select the YouTube clip for my source video:

Skip to gif start point

And here is the end result:

I'm sure there are many uses people can think of for this, but I wanted to show some short video clips as part of a starter activity: showing the clips through YouTube would have meant timing the starts, restarting the clips manually and possibly even showing each clip one after the other. What I decided to do instead was to create a table to display my four clips, side-by-side and ask students to sketch an energy profile diagram to represent what was happening in each.
