Trying out Generatus
Here is what I got:
“Thunderror always wears a seatbelt. It makes it harder for aliens to suck him out of his car.”
Generatus is meant for facebook, but provides satisfactory results with most microblogging platforms, social networking status messages and ensures that your status is as unique as possible. Reduces twitter’s block
Its Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays and many of you would have encountered the Holiday Doodle on Google and wondered what is all about. Google has a series of pictures (each of them featuring the google logo in some manner) which make up the Google Holiday Doodle. Each day one picture until you get the whole series on the last day.
We’re on the last today…so here is what I see on clicking Google’s Holiday Doodle logo!
You can read more about the Doodle for Google competion here! The Google Holiday Doodle countdown runs until it reaches main holiday…You can see few of the earlier Google Doodles below
All of Google’s logos are trademarks and copyrights of respective owners and they are presented here only for illustrative purposes
I almost forgot, you can see the Google doodler – the google doodle creator here! And…Happy Holidays!!
Using Chrome? Well..I do..since I find it to fast and light and runs as smooth as a browser should. I love my firefox too…but there are certain things which Chrome is good at. And security/privacy is not one of them….
Every install of Google Chrome comes with a unique ID which identifies the user. Removing it is not easy without help… After all..doesn’t Google already know enough about you through your gmails, indexed chats, your browsing and search history, what you buy, your maps, your photos (if you use Picasa) and they already have the earth mapped up to them…
UnChrome promises to do just that, to remove the unique ID (Just don’t forget to close chrome before u do it)…If not anything, atleast their Icon looks cool!
While browsing the web, we do come across pages in other languages…Google translate is one of the best and has been my friend when I encounter such pages. Yahoo’s Babelfish does a decent job as well..
But what if you wanted a lovely web 2.0 interface and just wanted to translate phrases into multiple languages? Support for language auto detect and translate as you type too?
Enter Nice Translator…A smooth clean interface with the use of light shades of green makes you want to translate phrases even if you don’t need them…
That was quite a short post. So, ????? or rather goodbye for now…
