4 years passed today since I signed up for a gmail account. I received an invitation via Blogger. This was about 3 weeks after Google announced the 1GB inbox.

This secured my best email address:

At that time, this was a mindbogglingly huge webmail inbox. Yahoo! & Hotmail offered few MegaBytes for each user, as far as I can remember nothing more than 5MB.

Hey, you can add your Facebook Events onto your Google Calendar. Here you are the steps for doing so.
1. Click on the "Events" link found in the left menu of your Facebook account.

!Global Voices Online
This one is pretty cool. Global Voices Online is a non-profit global citizens’ media project. Basicly a selection of what bloggers around the world are saying. Hand picked and refined.

Twitter is a tumblelog. A cool one. You can add tiny posts from IM, SMS or web. With a social networking ability.

I like it, this is the kind of app I find more useful than IM to keep in touch with people. Simply telling people whats going on with me. Also cool when one reads those tiny posts after a year or so.

It has a customizable way of reminding you to post. Kind of useful for people who get carried away and forget about their blogs. I can turn it off at any time.

I am aggregating the RSS feed on the left uppermost block titles what I am doing right now.
