1. System info It boasts how long it can stay up. Go to the Command Prompt in the Accessories menu from the All Programs start option, and then type 'systeminfo'. The computer will produce a lot of useful info, including the uptime. If you want to keep these, type 'systeminfo > info.txt'. This creates a file called info.txt you can look at later with Notepad. (Professional edition ). You can delete files immediately, without having them move to the Recycle Bin first. Go to the Start menu, select Run… and type 'gpedit.msc'; then select User Configuration, Administrative Templates, windows , Windows Explorer and find the Do not move deleted files to the Recycle Bin setting. Set it. Poking around in gpedit will reveal a great many interface and system options, but take care — some may stop your computer behaving as you wish. (Professional Edition only). You can lock your XP workstation with two clicks of the mouse. Create a new shortcut on your desktop using a right mouse click , and enter 'rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation' in the location field. Give the short cut a name like. That's it — just double click on it and your computer will be locked. And if that's not easy enough, Windows key + L will do the same. For those skilled in the art of DOS batch files, XP has a number of interesting new commands. These include 'eventcreate' and 'eventtriggers' for creating and watching events, 'typeperf' for monitoring performance of various subsystems, and 'schtasks' for handling scheduled tasks. As usual, typing the command name followed by /? will give a big list options. XP has IP version 6 support — the next generation of IP. Unfortunately this is more than your ISP has, so you can only experiment with this on your LAN. Type 'ipv6 install' into Run… (it's OK, it won't ruin your existing network setup) and then 'ipv6 /?' at the command line to find out more. If you don't know what IPv6 is, don't worry. XP will treat Zip files like folders, which is nice if you've got a fast machine. On slower machines, you can make XP leave zip files alone by typing 'regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll' at the command line. If you change your mind later, you can change things back by typing 'regsvr32 zipfldr.dll'. Windows key + Break brings up the System Properties dialogue box; Windows key + D brings up the desktop; Windows key + Tab moves through the taskbar buttons. Internet Explorer 6 will automatically delete temporary files, but only if you tell it to. Start the browser, select Tools / Internet Options… and Advanced, go down to the Security area and check the box to Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed. The Start Menu can be leisurely when it decides to appear, but you can speed things along by changing the registry entry HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel/Desktop/MenuShowDelay from the default 400 to something a little snappier. Like 0. You can rename loads of files at once in Windows Explorer. Highlight a set of files in a window, then right click on one and rename it. All the other files will be renamed to that name, with individual numbers in brackets to distinguish them. Also, in a folder you can arrange icons in alphabetized groups by View, Arrange Icon By… Show In Groups.

Orkut , adsense , gtalk , blogger all , now it seems google is in mood to buy TWITTER ,n may be succesful , i think so !
In official blog , they quoted http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/
"Five years ago yesterday, Gmail starting giving people a gig. What started as an internal tool for Google employees is now used by tens of millions of people around the world in 52 languages.
We wanted to put it there yesterday, but given that Gmail launched on April Fool's day 2004 and has a history of joking around on April 1st since then, we did something else instead.
In all seriousness, we want to give a big thank you to all of you who use Gmail every day, to those who've been around since the beginning, to those who were using an AJAX app before the term AJAX was popular, to those who started chatting right in your email and then video chatting a couple years later, to those who changed your theme on day one, and to those who have turned on some of the 43 experimental Gmail Labs features (and put up with the occasional bugs they introduce)...we couldn't have gotten here without you.

MSN Messenger Tricks - tips, tricks and secrets for MSN 7 and 7.5 + Windows Live Messenger
In this section of Messenger Tools you will find loads of MSN Messenger tricks and tips and secrets, so keep reading!
Secret and Hidden MSN Emoticons
MSN Messenger contains some secret and hidden emoticons! You can get all the info you need on these emoticons from our Secret & Hidden MSN Emoticons page!
Web Links in MSN Messenger 7.5
MSN Messenger 7.5 introduced some new functionality in form of links that can interact with MSN Messenger 7.5 from Internet Explorer. Read more about them Here and get some sample code to use from Here! Sending Unlimited Nudges
Update: This trick no longer works in MSN Messenger 7.5 or newer!
Nudges are a new feature in MSN Messenger 7 which are used to get your contact's attention, similar to Yahoo's 'buzz' feature, if not exactly the same! With this little trick you can send unlimited nudges to a contact, but keep in mind that contacts who have their status set to busy, will not see or hear the effect of an MSN Nudge, or they could have simply disabled the Nudge feature on their computer. Anyway, on to the trick...
To send unlimited Nudges in MSN Messenger in 3 easy steps:
1. Set your status to Busy in MSN Messenger
2. Open a conversation with the contact you wish to Nudge Bomb
3. Click the Nudge button repeatedly, as many times as you like!
And that all there is to it. This trick has last been tested and confirmed working on MSN Messenger 7.0.0813.
Stealing or Copying Custom Emoticons from Contacts
When one of your contacts uses a custom emoticon in a conversation with you, you can Copy or 'Steal' the emoticon in MSN Messenger 7! To do this, try the following when you see a contact use a custom emoticon:
1. Right Click on the emoticon so that a context menu appears (It should pop up)
2. Click on Add... or in some cases Get this Emoticon in the menu
3. You will now be prompted to enter information about the emoticon (such as its keyboard shortcut and name), enter this info and click OK to dismiss the dialog.
4. You can now use the newly added emoticon for yourself!
Note:
This trick has been verified working on MSN Messenger 7.0 build 0813, but there have been reports of the Add... option going missing for some users, the cause of this is not yet known.
New default emoticon in MSN Messenger 7
A new emoticon has been added to the default set of emoticons in MSN Messenger... a Goat!
The new Goat emoticon in MSN Messenger 7
The keyboard shortcut for using the new goat emoticon is (nah). Since this emoticon is new in MSN Messenger 7, users of MSN Messenger 6.2 will not be able to see it if you send it to them.
Zooming in and out in conversations in MSN 6 & 7
In MSN Messenger 6 and 7 you can zoom in and out of chat text in conversations (The text you write, the conversation text and also the Status text which appears in a yellow box below your contacts name and email address). To do this, follow these simple steps:
* Place your mouse over any of the above mentioned areas to zoom in and out, then hold down the CTRL key on your keyboard.
* Now move your mouse scroller forward and backwards to zoom in and out! Be sure to remember what the original size was in order to reset it if needed!
And thats all there is to it!

With Google Talk being all the craze right now, some people hating it, and others loving it, I figured that I would post a list of tips and tricks for those curious about the extra "features" Google implemented and has not said much about.
Registry Tweaks
You can edit most settings by opening regedit (start -> regedit),
and navigating to the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk.
The "Google/Google Talk" key has several sub-keys that hold different option values:
Accounts: This one has subkeys for each different account that has logged in on the client. These keys have different values that store the username, password and connection options.
Autoupdate: Stores the current version information. When the client checks for updates it compares Google's response with these values. If an update is needed, it will download and update the new version.
Options: This is the most interesting part, where most of the current hacks should be used (keep reading).
Process: Stores the process ID. Probably used by Google Talk to detect if it's already running or not.
1.) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\show_pin
If 1, shows a "pin" next to the minimize button that keeps the windows on top of all the other open windows when clicked.
2.)HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\view_show_taskbutton
If 0, hides the taskbar button, and leaves the tray icon only, when the window is shown
3.)HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\away_inactive
If 1, status will be set as Away after the specified number of minutes.
4.)HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\away_screensaver
If 1, status will be set as Away after the specified number of minutes.
5.)HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\inactive_minutes
Number of inactive minutes to become away if auto-away is on.
More Tips & Tricks
Change the font size - While holding the control key, move the scroll wheel on your mouse either up or down. This trick works while being focused in either the read or write area.
Insert line breaks - If you want to have a message that spans multiple paragraphs, just hold shift and hit enter. You can add as many new lines as you want to create.
Bold Text - To write something bold, you can use an asterisk before and after the word, like *this* .
Italic Text - To use italics, use an underscore before an after the word, like _this_ .
Switch windows - Hitting tab will cycle through open windows. It will select minimized conversations, to expand them just hit enter. If you just want to cycle through IM's and don't care about the buddy list, control-tab will do that and will automatically expand a minimized conversation if you settle on one.
Invitation Tips - You don’t need to say Yes or No when someone wants to add you as a friend; you can simply ignore it, the request will go away. (On the other hand, someone with whom you chat often will automatically turn to be your friend, unless you disable this in the options). ]
Show Hyperlinks - You can show your homepage or blog URL simply by entering the it in your away message (at the top of the main window). It will automatically turn to a link visible to others.
A message can be 32767 characters long.

There is no reason to pay for security applications for your PC. Uninstall your Norton, McAfee, etc. and install these free alternatives. They use fewer system resources and save you money.
• Avast Anti-virus Home Edition - This is a great anti-virus program which includes tons of features and options. It works well and provides automatic definition updates. What more could you ask? If you don’t like Avast for some reason you can try Avira AntiVir PersonalEdition.
EDIT: I now recommend AVG Free once again. They had “discontinued” version 7.1 and told people they would have to purchase the full version if they wanted to keep it. But now they’ve released the free version 7.5 so I’ve switched back and recommend you do so as well.
• ZoneAlarm Firewall - This firewall isn’t perfect, but it’s the best I’ve found for free. Even if your router includes a firewall you should run this on each machine to ensure that you have “defense in depth“.
• Spybot Search&Destroy - Complete spyware protection system which will find and disable spyware as well as prevent it from even loading. Also includes a system startup manager that allows you to disable all that crap that is slowing down your computer whenever you reboot it, like MS Messenger and Apple Quicktime. (Use ProcessLibrary.com to help decide what to remove.)
• Spyware Blaster - Actually prevents spyware and other malware from even being installed on your system. The free version is completely functional but you need to manually tell it to update the definitions periodically which is no big deal.
• Startup Inspector for Windows - A program with a singular purpose. Allow you to research and disable software that is automatically starting when you reboot your system. Includes a great “Consult” feature which tells you exactly what most items are.
• Windows Defender - Microsoft’s version of SpyBot isn’t quite as comprehensive, but I run it as well in case one picks up something the other one missed. It’s free as long as you’ve got a legal copy of Windows.if not then goto , www.makeyouexp.blogspot.com , read and enjoy !!
• McAfee SiteAdvisor - This plugin for IE or FireFox will proactively warn you of sites known to have spyware and other nasty things.

10 Chat Widgets to Consider FOR blog or website , free , to increase traffic , share and comment information !!
Embedded chat in a website provides the ability to more closely connect with your readers or customers, depending on the instance. Chat widgets provide real-time feedback and spur thought-provoking discussions - features lacking in e-mail. However the disadvantages should be acknowledged too. In some cases, widgets may slow down the page load or take away from the overall site experience rather than enhance it. However I encourage everyone to give some of the following chat widgets a try and make your own conclusions. Let's take a look at some of the top ones...
MeeboMe
MeeboMe is the leader in the space. This spin-off of the original multiple client chat (Meebo) is a nice, simple chat widget. It features publisher status, user nickname editing, and sound control. Also be sure to check out MeeboRooms, launched earlier this year.
Plugoo
Plugoo is a slick little chat widget that enables you to talk with site visitors via your IM client. In other words, you can work as usual without having to keep an eye on the chat box. Then if someone initiates a chat, a message will pop up on your IM. Great concept.
Mabber
Mabber is a simple, basic chat widget. No frills or gimmicks. It has an easy set-up process and intuitive interface, which makes this a good choice if you're looking to add a little something extra to your site.
Pladeo
Formerly InCircles, Pladeo is beautifully designed Flash chat widget. Some might call it overkill though. Site owners can choose a vertical or horizontal layout, as well as the color. Nicely designed, but it may take away from the rest of your site.
Userplane
Userplane is a more sophisticated chat offering. I found the sign up process to be a bit tedious, but the end product was worth it. The company launched a revenue-sharing program in May of this year. [disclosure: Userplane is a R/WW sponsor]
Geesee
Geesee is highly functional and robust, yet it's also a cumbersome service. I found the interface and color scheme to be a bit childish, although I suppose the service is tailored as a more 'fun' offering than some of the others.
Gabbly
Gabbly is a slick, multi-user chat widget. The service also provides RSS and audio functionality. I found it to be a pretty good overall offering, unless you're looking for something extremely basic.
Chatango
Chatango is a personalized chat widget. The set-up was easy, yet it still provided a high level of customization. The interface wasn't the slickest, but it was intuitive. Overall though, I thought Chatango was mediocre.
Zoho Chat
Zoho Chat was one of my favorite services that I tested. It is extremely easy to set-up and very slick. The widget is very simple to use and professional-looking. [disclosure: Zoho is a R/WW sponsor]
ParaChat
ParaChat is more of an application than a widget. The embedded chat box is a "presence" and feels like it's part of the website. However the look n' feel is very web 1.0 and the ads take away from the experience. Overall, I wasn't overly impressed.
Conclusion
The implementation of a chat widget should be analyzed on a case-by-case basis. Not all websites may benefit, as some people may not have the time or resources to operate the technology. Having said that, the ability to facilitate real-time, pertinent discussions cannot be understated. Check out one or more of the above chat widgets and let us know what you think. Also if you know of other chat widgets or embedded chat programs that we missed, be sure to list them in the comments.
