In August last year I found and activated word verfication for comments and Now, it’s also available for hearing impaired people!

However their Blogger Buzz post about it is wrong! The audio files are not played in the language you choosed at your blogspot’s preferences but in the language of your browser’s language (i.e. the language you set in its preferences)!

Anyway, it’s a great thing! 🙂

Due to pure accident pure accident, I found a replacement for Flickr’s Zeitgeist, which I had to remove due to serious problems). The replacement is called Flickr Badge and it’s exactly the same 🙂 I think they just renamed it from “Zeitgeist” into “Badge” with the difference, that there is now a pure HTML version of it, so no more virues (because it ran some scripts).

At least I found none! 🙂

You can see my new badge at the side panel of this blog.

Yesterday, I have received finally a reply from ICQ to my complaint letter about the death of the ICQ Support and Focus Group!

I do not want to quote it completely due to various reasons.
Here is just a small snippet with the most important things:

The ICQ support center, which is indeed a valuable tool for our users, was monitored in the last few months and based on the traffic, topics and questions was modified with relevant FAQ’s that should provide all the answers to our users questions regarding our services.

The ICQ Focus Group was never shut down and in fact we have just uploaded a new survey regarding the 2Way SMS service. The Focus Group wasn’t updated lately due to the re-design of our new Web site but we have plans to upgrade it and make it a better tool for our users to post their opinions and share with us their views of ICQ current and future developments.

which basicly tells us: ICQ Support keeps being closed but ICQ Focus Group will return! So, I will start to complain a lot about the missing ICQ support once it’s back! 🙂

After 3 years of halt, the best ICQ clone for Linux (& Windows/MacOSX) is back and even with a new homepage!

As you can see, the ICQ part of this multi-protocol messanger looks like an almost 100% copy of ICQ 2003b or older! 🙂

The only very big disadvantage is, that it still has no language selector, so I had to rename a language file so I can use the English version (which is what I prefer).

After a lot of weekly builds, there finally it is; Opera 9 Beta 1!

The most noticeable changes are the widgeds being now accessable at the top at the title bar through a button, the IMAP client still being work in progress, a lower build number, and widgeds getting a seperated task in the taskbar if pinned (one thing you won’t loke once you have a lot of them open at the same time :-/ ).
