I know you were waiting for this feature all this time. Ever since you started using gmail chat, and google talk, you really wanted to go invisible and couldn’t find a way to do it right ?

Finally , gmail chat has the option for you to go invisible ! and it should be soon on your gtalk too.

So next time you see someone offline on gtalk, ping them just to show that you know about this feature

If you are interested to know more about this feature, here is more

Yes, here is a cool feature that you would love to add to your blog. A small badge from Gtalk, on your sidebar, and user visitors can start talking to you with a simple click, without sharing your gmail ID or their email ID.

To create one badge for you, you just need to copy paste the code from here

If you can’t believe what I told you now, read more here !!

“Visitors will then see a badge on your site indicating your availability, and can click to start a chat with you. If there’s a time when you don’t want to be distracted, just set your online status to “busy” and visitors won’t be able to chat with you until you change your status back to “available.”

Update- If you set your status to “busy” on chat, the gtalk link will be disabled. ( Visitors will not be able to request chat )
If you believe, then just click on “talk to me” on my sidebar, and LET’S TALK !!

Ssssh !! this is a secret…. Ruhi, is in love !!! with our one and only Gmail !! Read her love story here What’s my role in this love story ? Somehow, me and Ish were messengers for these lovers, trying to meet and talk !! Read more…………. from her comment about our role !!

“You’ll find this really weird. Till a couple of hours back, I was all pro-Yahoo. But now, I’m all pro- Gmail. 6+ GB is anyway a lot of space, if you separate all your email accounts, right? And it’s only increasing every single day. There are also other forwarding options available that let you forward your email from one gmail account to another…anyway you must be knowing all this. I’ve never used all these features, until today. Dinsan will be very happy to know that finally I’ve converted to Gmail full time. Haha.”

So, welcome Ruhi………………….

“There is a little bit of me in AOL mail”. Well, thats true. They have ads too !! like I have on this blog. Is it really bad to have ads ? hmm I would say, No, but when I open my inbox, I am expecting my inbox first and not just ads.

First Impression ?

Yes, opening your mail will not take you directly to your inbox. You see a copy of aol.in’s home page along with some ads. So my first impression was not that good. But it could’een better if they avoided that right - left scroll ( I really hate when I have to scroll left - right on a web page ) Continue reading →

Looking at the news on Yahoo! and Google blogs, I see them thinking about more features and upgrades. So, iPhone is something that we are going to see more mobile features being developed. Its no wonder because iPhone, after is something that comes from the Mac family. Well, Just wondering when they are going to hit Indian market !! or is it already here ? anyone ?

Whats the news that made me think all these, ?

Yahoo! Messenger for Mac, is getting voice feature on it soon !! Well, isn’t it good enough to avoid your mobile bills and just pay the bill for internet on your iPhone ? hmm this is a good one dear Yahoo! and and as far as I know, google is yet to have gtalk with voice on iPhone. If you guys know about it, just drop me a comment.

Now, whats Google doing with iPhone ?

“At Macworld today, version 1.1.3 of Apple’s iPhone software was announced that includes updates to Google Maps for mobile and IMAP access to Gmail. ”

Google Maps is something that I am yet to try something on. So, I can’t comment. But, its really interesting to see IMAP added to iPhone’s Gmail.

Whats IMAP ? If you need a technical explanation, go right here. To make it simple, earlier, when iPhone was just downloading the email from gmail, and keeping it in your phone. The changes that you make on these messages on your iPhone, will not have any effect on your gmail inbox because its already a local file. But with IMAP, you are directly dealing with the contents in your gmail inbox itself, real time.

The most important thing that I see here, is you get the “real” gmail in to your phone not, just a POP access, like normal email IDs of hosted websites ( they have IMAP too, FYI ). Once you have the real Gmail on your phone, don’t you think more feature are going to be added, sooner ?
