Yahoo's IM inside Mail

Hey guys,

When I was checking my mail in Yahoo, A popup appeared saying that I can now able to chat inside the mail box and asked me to continue. I pressed the continue button, It took some time to load the chat and it appeared as it shown in the picture.

Look at the red circle in the picture. This is how it shows when the chat is loaded on to ur page. The circle at the top indicates that you are online.


On the left navigationbar, along with the contacts, you will be shown with the number of persons online. When u click on it, It will show you the persons who are online.


The chat screen looks good.....

When the screen is minimized,we get an alert which looks like the one below..... One thing is that there is no colour change in the alert like how google has in their chat.....

Experience this chat and comment on this blog.......
See you on the next blog...... Take care till then...

Yahoo Photos is shutting down! and Yahoo has gone crazy!

Hey guys,

Hope everyone had a great weekend. I had an awesome weekend sitting alone at home on saturday and spending the whole time with my brother's kid on sunday.....
When I am back to office, I saw the google news saying Yahoo! Photos will be shutting down its service. But it will ask all the existing users to switch to the photo-sharing site namely Flickr!
In June, tens of millions of registered users of Yahoo Photos will be notified of various options including upgrading to Yahoo's Flickr service or various outside-photo storage sites, according to Flickr co-founder Stewart Butterfield.
Yahoo also will offer consumers the option of loading their photos on competing sites when users are notified next month.

These include PhotoBucket - the most popular online photo sharing service among users of social network sites like MySpace - or more conventional photo printing and storage site such as Kodak Gallery, Shutterfly or Snapfish, he said.
Yahoo continued to support both Photos and Flickr over the past two years, reflecting the different audiences of the two sites.
Hey, and one more thing..... Yahoo has gone crazy I guess... My brother sent a mail asking," what mail have u sent to the family group?" After this I figured it out in my mail inbox, that a mail has been sent in my name to all the family members(I mean to my family group) saying something like 'you should watch this video'.... Guys, watch out ur yahoo inbox.. If someone sends a spam, dont open it.... Even let ur friends know that if any such mail comes, tell them its not u who is sending and ask them to consider it as a SPAM! I really dont know wat is Yahoo doing without monitoring all such spams.....
Ok guys, meet u in the next blog.....

I am no more a student!!!!

Hey Guys!!!

Got any clue by seeing the title?? Yeah! I am done with my MCA. Now I am not a student. he he..... Last week I finished my 6th semester project review and it went on well. Got good marks i guess. Now those are all not a big concern. I know i will get a pass grade. Tats enough.

So wats up guys????? Let me tell some interesting things.....

When we change ourselves from a student to an professional environment, have u ever recognized the things that do not change in us?

During the first week of work in honeywell for my project, I used to put my hands under the tap and wait for water to come. Then realised that this is not college. 'coz in my college, the water taps are automatic. I and my friend experienced it and laughed away to glory.

There are more impact when we go back to college from an professional environment. Recently
when I and my friends went to the college for our review, we went to the college canteen for our breakfast....

In our office, we used to take our plates after our food and put it in the wash area. We tried doing the same thing in the college canteen and realised that we dont have to take it. ;) After tat we went to wash our hands.. Now its the other way round.... We tried pulling the tap instead of just showing under the tap.... he he.....

In our college lab, we are not allowed use mobile. I got a message when i was inside the lab and started replying for it. One of my friend told me that u cant use ur mobile jus like u use it in the office. Then it hit on my brain that i am in the lab....

We never used to put our mobile in silent mode in the office. My friend was giving review in the college. His mobile rang in the middle. Then i also figured out that my mobile is also not in silent mode and immediately I made it into silent.

I and my friend went to food court(name of the restaurant in my college) for lunch. After our lunch, we had a plate which had two tissues(one for each.. not more than that.......). In our office, we used to take a bunch of tissues even when we eat sandwich.

Even we change our place, it will take time for us to get adjusted to the new environment......

Tats for today guys! Gotta some work jus now.. will do tat..... Bye. See u!
