Have you ever been asked what Google Wave is? It’s hard to explain. Really, really hard.
What you should do from now on is to show people this “Pulp Fiction adapted for Google Wave” video. It helped me. It helped Gizmodo’s John Herrman. I am sure it’ll help any Tarantino fan

Still waiting for a Google Wave invite? Try your luck here.
At a recently held Silicon Valley dinner, Michael Dell revealed a bitter truth about the upcoming Windows 7 operating system:
"I’ve been using Windows 7 for a long time now, and if you get the latest processor technology and Office 2010 with it, you will love your PC again."
Does this mean that if I do not have the latest processor technology (and apparently, Office 2010) and install Windows 7, I would hate my PC?
Moreover, I am not sure how many users would be willing to upgrade to the “latest processor technology” (whatever that means) to upgrade to the successor of the biggest tech failure of the past decade.

Here’s another one of those weird and funny Google suggestions that appear in the Google search.
It surely says that Google Suggest is not yet totally ready for “prime time”, but yes it is surely helpful in its own ways.

Neowin reports that some anonymous user posted details, including passwords, of thousands of users accounts with @hotmail.com, @msn.com and @live.com. Ars Technica says the list included usernames starting from “ar” to “bl”.
So if you have a Hotmail account, go change your password or better, abandon it. Meanwhile I’ll try to get hold of the list and find Avril Lavigne’s hotmail password

Consider this:
You are robbing a house. You see a computer and cannot resist the temptation to check your facebook account. You open your facebook account on this computer and, apparently, forget to log off.
You’d think its silly, however, it isn’t if you are Jonathan Parker. The guy was arrested later.

Colgate has taken up a weird advertising campaign in Bangkok. Take a look at it for yourself. It is kind of intelligent and foolish at the same time:

It got confused when I asked.
It told me it can’t dance though.
Can’t believe what kind of so-called-geeks believe that forwarding an email can get them free laptops or even a share of Microsoft’s property giveaway.
This was the email that was apparently doing rounds for the past 8 years and yet again reached my inbox today.
If any delusionary company is ever going to distribute laptops for real, sure count us in. Ofcourse we would anyday prefer a wealthy sack of money from microsoft as a dead give away to this.
Google thinks I am at an “undefined” usage of Gmail.
Apparently the line above is caused because the Javascript variables which store the usage information haven’t been initialized properly.
Gmail’s official blog gave out this link in a blog post for their new labs feature that puts Google Search inside Gmail.
Check it out before they actually “fix” it.
Apparently, the Google mobile iPhone app has been updated recently. And it has some really weird updates. Have a look:
Amongst the list are “Longer version number” and “Ninja”. Not sure how these are supposed to help the customers, but this probably shows the slacky review process in the Google mobile development team.
