Today I have slightly modified the blog template, to be frank its just a small change, but I feel proud I made this change because I loved this effect when I saw this at some website.

The links when you hover used to show an underline earlier but now it inverts the background and font color, just like in the photo sharing site Flickr

  I also changed the blog background from #EEE to #27D and visited links now dont show a different color.

Microsoft is not Google. They provide really cool and innovative services not like Google which mostly aims at providing an existing service at a higher scale which panics the competition. Still no one sues Google and everyone hates Microsoft, worse yet they love anything Google releases, anything, for example the GTalk crap messenger, it has nothing on it but people say wow what a simple messaging client! Someone rightly named it, ‘the stone age messenger‘ 

Ok lets talk about them sometime later

Windows Live Writer is a desktop weblog editor from Microsoft which is a part of their Windows Live Program. It allows posting to various popular blogging services not just Windows Live Spaces (formerly MSN Spaces). It is a free download, doenst need a beta invite like most Google apps or the frustrating signup and wait until they show some mercy on you process.

Seemed cool at the first look to me and reviews over the web have been good, so thought of giving it a try, well here it is, you are reading my first post to my Blogger blog from Windows Live Writer (Beta)

I never liked Motorola phones released before the Moto Razr but now there is a phone from Motorola to impress the masses(i guess). The Motorola L6 is a phone which can be called a cheap downgraded Razr, note the 5 letter word cheap. Presently it costs just 5,500 INR (see $ conversion). Motorola seems to be trying to sell the Razr looks minus the features. Ofcourse it cant have the same features as Razr for to two obvious reasons-

• It is cheaper than the Razr
• Two phones cannot have the same features and same looks when they are being called by different names, something has to be different when the names are different

But the L6 at its price and with its looks is a good deal because it has all the basic features, yaa a camera too. The best part is it has a color screen Motorola L6

L6 is good isnt it?

I have talked about this wonderful website Meeebo earlier. They have made lots of improvements from then. It is set to become a very good service in the future.

Meebo is an Ajax based instant messaging client that works with major instant messaging services. Its website allows you to log onto AOL, ICQ, Yahoo! Messenger, MSN Messenger, Jabber and Google Talk, eliminating the need for an instant-messaging client on the user’s computer

A new website intended for publicity work has been started http://gomeebo.com and i have made a Meebo button for them its on their Wiki page

You can use it on your website if you like to.

They have started another service called Meebo Repeater for thoose of you behind the wall! Try if it is of any help in case you cant access meebo.

The World Cup fever is on!
See how the internt gaints are changing their look to reflect the World Cup image

Google

Yahoo! Mail Beta Loading page

and Yahoo! seems to have a lead in the race because the Official FIFA World Cup website is hosted on the yahoo domain and some Yahoo! services like Yahoo! 360 have been intelligently integrated into it.
Why Yahoo! ? because Yahoo! is the Official Partner of the event
