Gmail – Is it too creepy?

December 29, 2006

Gmail is too creepy

Ever got anything as a reply..for a mail that you sent from Gmail.com!?

Dear Gmail user:
Due to privacy considerations, we cannot respond unless you resend your email from a different account. For more information, please visit http://www.gmail-is-too-creepy.com/

Back when Google.com was first launched its very own GMail.com, the site Gmail is Too Creepy was launched by some, who claimed to have foreseen its disastrous consequences. Nothing of what they predicted has come true so far….atleast not in the open!

But the ‘Search your mail’ option in GMail (and now adopted by several mailing servers) always makes me wonder, “What if one fine day someone googles for something and is actually searching my Inbox!”

   aqualifex          aqualifex2

Here the Symbian Version of Feeding Frenzy! Though categorized as the erotic-fun game, its more of latter than the former! 

The idea of the game is quite simple – eat fishes that are smaller than you and beware of bigger ones. A pleasant feature of the game is that when you grow up to the largest scale the game will not end up immediately and you may enjoy your underwater domination. There are several bonuses in the game giving you temporary invulnerability, additional lives and points, so keep your eyes open!

P.S. Guys, I’ll be uploading all the rest of my stuffs at this link only; so if you are having any problems downloading from here, do let me know.

Tips and Tricks for Symbian Phones

December 28, 2006

Here are some not so popular but pretty useful Tips and Tricks for Symbian (S60 and the likes) Phones:

  • The use of the edit (abc/pencil) button – … in the Inbox if you want to delete multiple smses, simply hold the edit button, scroll down, and then, press C to delete the marked sms. The edit button can also be used to copy and paste text in sms; simply hold it and scroll across, choose copy and paste it anywhere. Pretty good for placing song names in Ngages!

  • Type *#0000# to view which firmware version you are running.
  • While you are viewing a picture in your phone’s Gallery, press one of these shortcut keys (Tested on 6600, 3230):
    1 – turn image anticlockwise
    3 – turn image clockwise
    * – toggle on/off of full screen
    5 – zoom in
    0 – zoom out
  • This will definitely be of use for sure ;)

Turn on/off the “click” sound made by the camera by selecting the ‘Silent’ profile or by turning warning tones on/off:
Menu > Profiles > “select your activated profile” > Personalise > Warning tones > On/Off.
(This also affects the sound of Java games and apps).

  • To reset your wallet, should you forget your code,
    Type in: *#7370925538# – this will reset the wallet code, the wallet contents will be deleted.

The Interview with God!

December 27, 2006

Yes…someone did find God (in his/her dream though) and actually interviewed him about humankind! Not just that, the person even had the nerve to make a Flash presentation out of it…and host it over the Internet!

And you may have already seen it by now, but just in case you havn’t – do have a look at it. I still do not believe in God or anything thereof, but the philosophy behind ‘The Interview with God’ is really very interesting…

About humankind, one of the things God says is -

“..That they live as if they will never die…
…And die, as though they’d never lived…!”
