Like VS Plus, Google+ is losing at the moment

July 18th, 2011 2 comments

As at this time 18/07/2011 12:40PM. likevsplus.com shows that there are 99k facebook likes and 56k Google Plus. I am not surprise at all provided that the populations between Facebook and Google+ users are so obvious that Google+ is in the lesser one. Google+ just launched for about 10 days so I think it is still early to say who will be the winner.  Somehow I think they both can lives together under the same roof.

For me I think the  main different between them is the social options. Facebook wants you to social with everyone while Google+ let you to choose who to social with.

Here are a quote from Google+ user Mike Elgan

Here’s what I love about Google+ in general and the Google+ Diet in particular:

Instead of saying, “I’m going to write a blog post now,” or “I’m going to send an e-mail” or “I think I’ll tweet something” you simply say what you have to say, then decide who you’re going to say it to.

If you address it to “Public,” it’s a blog post.

If you address it to “Your Circles” it’s a tweet.

If you address it to your “My Customers” Circle it’s a business newsletter.

If you address it to a single person, it can be a letter to your mother.

I’d say this is pretty revolutionary.

He really sums up the beauty of Circle features in Google Plus.

Is this from Google ? I guess not, just some Google replica site from China. I have no idea what the usage yet. I try search and nothing happen.

Gmail – Attachment Failed

January 25th, 2010 2 comments

Are you on the same ship with me ? The new Gmail multiple attachment features was great. But some users will have this “Attachment Failed” error while uploading. Having the latest Flash and Browser wont help. After many researches and I found some solutions to fix this issue. It is relating to the encryption on HTTPS. All you have to do is turn on HTTPS in the Gmail settings – General. Or you can just type https://www.gmail.com while accessing to your Gmail.

The other way to do it is just disable the advance attachment features in the Gmail setting. Which is not a good option as we all like to use the latest features.

Google Wave Invite Giving Out

January 22nd, 2010 No comments

Leave you email in comment or Contact Me. I will send out the Google wave invitations ASAP.

What is a wave?

A wave is equal parts conversation and document.People can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.

A wave is shared. Any participant can reply anywhere in the message, edit the content and add participants at any point in the process. Then playback lets anyone rewind the wave to see who said what and when.

A wave is live. With live transmission as you type, participants on a wave can have faster conversations, see edits and interact with extensions in real-time. (Quote from Google wave)

Google Wave

Got my Google Wave invite. Guess what, it is completely useless without any friends with “Wave” enabled in it. Cant really do much by myself, only when it open for public then may be all the features can be tested out.

Google Chrome (BETA) for Windows

September 4th, 2008 No comments

Here comes another good software from Google – Google Web Browser ! After installed and have a run, outstanding ! It feels really smooth and light.

After the installation, it let you choose where to import your data such as IE, Firefox etc. It works preatty much the same as FIrefox but lighter and slimmer. The interface is clean and neat which gives more space for web content.

However, Google chrome does not support plugin (soon perhaps). If you like plugins might as well still stay with Firefox until plugins feature is supported in Chrome.

New F1 Store at Formula 1.com

April 16th, 2008 No comments

This official Formula One Online Store has finally got their website redesigned. It looks better now and easier to navigate. This store sells genuine caps, shirts, wallets, DVDs and other accessories such as key rings, writing pad and mousepad.

I personally think that the mouse pad is pretty cool, its made of carbon fibre. But the price of $413.76 is too steep for a mousepad, and due to the sleek and glossy surface its only suitable for a ball mouse.

Undeniably, the finished products are really in high quality and gorgeous. If you are a F1 enthusiast and want to wear exactly the same like F1 team members, cant go wrong with the official products.
