GoogleTalk IceBlue Skin

There are some cool looking skins to turn your google talk colorful. I personally like the IceBlue. It looks really good. Did’nt try the Mac theme yet but that should also be good.

You can find them here: Google Talk Skins

Waiting for Firefox plugins :(

| Posted in Firefox |

0

Got addicted to firefox long back that I dont even remember when I started using firefox seriously. The latest 1.5 version seems to eat less system resources than all previous versions. But I am really feeling new and wired without many plugins that I got used to. Mainly auto copy and the green google bar(PR) at the bottom. 70% of the plugins/extensions I use are not functional because they are incompatable with v1.5.. hmm..

Auto copy made me very lazy and now I am really missing it. Well, want to ask the firefox plugin developers(all contributors) to make it fast. I really appreciate all contributors and the firefox community for making firefox unique and lovable. Thanks very much.

Skype goes video!

Skype Video Chat

After Ebay bought skype in mid september this year, I think this is the first major new feature that skype is adding to its IM Software. The Video version is in Beta now,. with a known bug: Calls to SkypeOut numbers are reporting “call failed” rather than “busy” if the recipient’s phone is busy

Google Talk which was released in August being its main competitor now as far as the voip range tools, skype can feel the threat of loosing its users. I guess this Video chat version would give skype a good stand and also a potential increase in the number of users.

Two other intresting new features added in this version are
- Mood messages
- Contact Grouping
Not sure about how useful the mood message feature will be but the contact grouping was missing for this great voip tool and its nice that it is finally added.

You can send your comments and other things here:

Download Beta version with Video

Time for some video chatting :)

SpreadGoogleTalk Hacked

SpreadGoogleTalk, which is one of Google Talk’s many websites related to the product has been hacked and they have simply replaced the index page. Not sure how they do that but have seen it before. If you are not late, you might see the hacked page.

This just proves that nothing is safe on the net. Including the famous sites if they are not in the hands of professionals. SpreadGoogleTalk admins can simply replace the index file with the origianl index file they have but I am sure by now many from my region have seen it. Or am I the first one?

Probably it shoukld be ok when the western world wakesup.
Lets see.
