Yahoo IM's funny indicators

Hey guys,

I was chatting with my brother today in Yahoo's Gadget which was plugged along with the mail. I found something funny today. I couldnt stop laughing at it.

Let me share it with you guys.

Check out the sentence inside the red circle. It will be funny.

The one which is erased is the user name.

Say, if my yahoo id is "funny", it will prompt me as

"Hope you're sitting down, funny is typing" ;)

I get like these in regular intervals.

Another picture on the right side...

It says "1000 monkeys just landed on 's keyboard".

It was so funny that i couldn't stop laughing.

What is Microsoft Surface?

Hey Guys,

Hope everyone are good in health... Long time no blogs.. Was pretty busy... Major coding work. I go back home by 11 or so...

Now back to square 1 with less work. Have u heard of Microsoft Surface recently??

What is Microsoft Surface? Microsoft Surface™, the first commercially available surface computer from Microsoft Corp., turns an ordinary tabletop into a vibrant, interactive surface. The product provides effortless interaction with digital content through natural gestures, touch and physical objects. Surface is a 30-inch display in a table-like form factor that's easy for individuals or small groups to interact with in a way that feels familiar, just like in the real world. In essence, it's a surface that comes to life for exploring, learning, sharing, creating, buying and much more. Soon to be available in restaurants, hotels, retail establishments and public entertainment venues, this experience will transform the way people shop, dine, entertain and live.

How does Surface work?

At a high level, Surface uses cameras to sense objects, hand gestures and touch. This user input is then processed and the result is displayed on the surface using rear projection.


What is surface computing?

Surface computing is a new way of working with computers that moves beyond the traditional mouse-and-keyboard experience. It is a natural user interface that allows people to interact with digital content the same way everyday items such as photos, paintbrushes and music , with their hands, with gestures and by putting real-world objects on the surface. Surface computing opens up a whole new category of products for users to interact with.
Check out the video of the same in the below post.
