ICQ homepage: NEW Groups and Forums system


ICQ has now made a change to its homepage: The Groups and Forums system has been renewed, it allows now to get notified on icq again once somebody joined my group or I can get even invited. And coming up is also the possibility to add a group to my contact list! Now this sounds interesting to see how this will look like! 🙂

What is really bad, is that spammed groups were just ereased by the ICQ Team without warning or prior notice, this is bad 🙁

On the bright side, the ICQ Focus Group is spam free again!

Of course they also opened a ICQ Community Beta Version forum to leave your feedback regarding the new groups/forums system!

More details about the next new Opera version: Krestel

The Opera Desktop Team has released more info regarding the Krestel Development which is the next major Opera release and everything seems to be redone from scratch. Major higlights will be screenreader support again, faster Opera Email, better search, more compatibility with websites and much much more. The release is aimed for tomorrow which will be a very early state with a lot of bugs and edges still in, however the Opera Desktop Team promises a smoother and less troublesome experience with that release anyway.

Considereing they are working on this since over 1 year and the release has been delayed on schedule since a while, this gives us hope that it will be a real kicker! 🙂

SkypeIn and Voicemail subscriptions expanded to a week

I just received an email from Skype saying sorry for their recent outage and to calm me down they expanded my SkypeIn and Voicemail subscriptions expanded to a week!

At least something positive out of this! It did for sure cost them some customers anyway (the outage lasted 2 1/2 days!).

News at GMail

Gmail allows now to have GMail’s interface in 41 language.

Also, now you are allowed to upload attachments up to 20 MB. Quoting:

“What’s the maximum attachment size?

With Gmail, you can send and receive messages up to 20 megabytes (MB) in size. However, the precise amount allowable will depend on the attachment.

When you add an attachment, the size of a file may increase because transport encodings are automatically added. (Transport encodings are the information that allows your message to be safely sent and read.)

This means that in some cases, attachments that are 17 to 20MB in size may push the total message size above 20MB. When this happens, Gmail displays a warning that your message exceeds the 20MB limit.”

Happy Birthday Blogger? Nah, because I don’t like you anymore!

Blogger celebrates today its 8th birthday. Is this a reason to celebrate? No!

“Thanks to everyone who has supported us over the past four-fifths of a decade, and thanks especially to you for all the blogs. Come back later this afternoon for a present.“

Thanks not for ignoring all bugs and bug reports I sent in since August 2006.

You have no idea how much I hate this since you had been really coolk with me before and always helpful and caring (and I think you for this) but since September 2006, I am ignored, and the bugs are really heavy and nobody cares.

I even wrote to your personal email addresses and got ignored too, even writing a comment in your blog gave no result.

If there is any soul in the Blogger Staff who is willing to fix all the bugs in Blogger, let me know!
