Knol Name Verification Open only to USA Users

Its really sad to know that the name verification is only available for the users from USA. Why can't they open up globally?

Google Definition Search Result (define:) is Wikipedia

Few days back I was searching for some definitions and found something surprising. Take a look at the below screen-shot,



Surprising isn't?

So what does this convey? Google trust Wikipeida? Or is this a Google bug?

Black GMail Skin or GMail V2?

Take a look at the Screen-shot,




It is a Greasemonkey skin for GMail. Try it now! Few days back I got this link from my friend.

It works only on Firefox, download new black Gmail skin here and the latest version of Firefox3 here!

After installing, GoTo: Tools --> Better Gmail 2... and play with the options.

PS: No need to install Greasemonkey for this GMail Skin.

Update:

GMail is now updated with their own set of themes, read about GMail Themes here!

To add theme to your GMail account, go to "Settings" and search for "Themes" tab

Microsoft to Acquire Powerset

Microsoft has signed an agreement to acquire Powerset. I just had a look at their website/blog and found an interesting stuff,

"Still they use Google Analytics to track their traffic"

MS, when are you going to change it? ;-)

But how MS is going to use this service? Any idea? Comments please...

GMail Loading Screen Update & GMDesk

Recently Google started updating many of their services like, AdWords, AdSense, Trends and others. Today I found something different while loading GMail via browser. Please take a look at the below screenshot,



They have replaced the cluttered text with a prominent "reload" message and the secondary options below that. This will help the user to easily select their view.

But, this doesn’t affect me in any way as I use "Thunderbird" as my email client and I rarely get a chance to look at the emails via browser ;-)

Also, have you ever tried the desktop version of GMail using AIR (Adobe)? Try it now, it is really cool. You need Adobe AIR to run this application.
