Yup! Its done. MSN and Yahoo!, as they promised, have started interoperability. But one thing remains. They should implement at least one of the following: 1) Both messengers must be able to actually log into each other's accounts. The idea is to use MSN Messenger alone to log into both MSN and Yahoo accounts at the same time.

That is if the person enters Yahoo log in details in to MSN Messenger, it should log in, download the contact list and add them up to user's MSN account (maintaining the groups). (In this case, when chatting with the Yahoo contacts from MSN, the other person must be shown the Yahoo ID along with the MSN ID. Okay I'm sure Microsoft wouldn't even see this blog, but still I'm putting my wishlist here, because... that's what my blog is for!!!

Update:  The Setup installer of the latest Notepad2 will automatically replace the Windows Notepad. Also, the method of replacement is very different for Windows 7 , compared to what is described below. Instead of actually replacing the Windows Notepad, a registry hack simply redirects all Notepad requests to Notepad2. The Setup installer uses this registry hack. I am unable to determine if the setup does a replacement in Windows XP as well. Original Post: I searched the Internet on information on how to do that, and I found this nice page: Click here to see it. But both the methods didn't work in my Windows installation, as the file protection dialog box was NEVER appearing. Windows was automatically replacing Notepad2 with the original Notepad without any warning or question. Then I worked around another method. Call it Method 3 if you will. NOTE: These instructions apply to Windows XP Service Pack 2 only! My Windows installation is the Tablet PC Edition. Download Notepa...

Whenever you want to send an SMS through Internet, it is always a better practice to send them through the website of the mobile service provider, whose connection the recipient is using. When I searched for such pages on the Internet, I found these for Singapore: StarHub: Click Here This is a two-way service, and so the recipient can reply to your message. SingTel: For one-way service, Click Here You will not receive any reply. For two-way service, Click Here You will need to register an account before you can use this service. M1: Click Here This is also a one-way service (not sure though), but M1 customers need to activate Internet SMS before they can receive your messages. To activate, they need to send "Insms on" to "8888".

You are given a ball of dough. You have three choices. Choice 1: Mould it into a small artefact that means something to you. Bake it so that it will never change its shape from being that beautiful artefact. Place it in your showcase where you have more similar beautiful artefacts. Choice 2: Flatten it and make it into a roti. Cook it in a pan and make a delicious gravy to accompany it. Eat it and relish it's taste. Choice 3: Crush it in your hand. Go to the nearest dustbin. Throw it in the dustbin. Which will you choose to do? . . . Have you chosen what you will do with a ball of dough? . . . Have you? . . . Are you sure you won't regret your choice? . . . If you're sure you made the best choice... . . . ... know that each new friend you make is a ball of dough in your hands. You've made your choice. You can't change it now!

You should check out www.meebo.com ! It's supercool. Although the only purpose of it is functioning as a multi-protocol (AIM, ICQ, Yahoo, MSN, Jabber and Google Talk) instant messenger, it looks more like an operating system in a browser window! If Microsoft would take the same concept into action, they can create a real life Windows demo that would instantly run in the browser window through the latest and coolest web technology called AJAX! Using this technology they can create live demos of their next operating systems in which demo users can click and explore what they want instead of staring at a screen of slides. And they can have the real experience as though they already have the OS installed, although it's just a webpage!
