Its not that I [...]

Pretty cool… Ms Word 2007 has a new feature: You can write and submit posts directly from Ms Word. It supports many different services like Blogger and Wordpress. Quite neat… Helpful if the internet is too slow and just loading the Blogger Dashboard and the new post page takes a couple of minutes. Ah… that’s [...]

A quick question.. Have you installed Windows Vista? If so, do you use it regularly?

Yeah yeah… I finally decided to write again… There comes a time in most bloggers lives when you can’t think of anything to write.. You are just too bored.. You finally realise that there are only a handful of people reading your blog and its a waste of time to write something for just a [...]
