Computer,
Online Stuffs,
Operating System,
Software Microsoft recently released the much awaited Windows 7 beta and if you dare to use this beta version, you can download it here.
We all know that Vista didn’t become as popular as Windows XP but this time, many people keep their hopes high with Windows 7. Why? Well because Windows 7 is designed to be faster, more reliable, and makes it easier to do what we want.
Windows 7 promised to starts up, shuts down and responds faster 
And with its several theme designs, we can now choose our own desktop style. We can even enjoy a slideshow for our desktop background. It also has improved taskbar and full-screen previews and a single Devices and Printers screen that will allow you to connect, manage, and use whatever printers, phones, and other devices you have.
Hmm, I am tempted to try it soon because I want to have a feel of Windows 7 and also to try its handwriting recognition features that is said to have greater accuracy and speed in even when you write math expressions and personalized custom dictionaries.
To try it yourself, download the Windows 7 here.

Email,
Online Stuffs I love the new Gmail’s Tea House Theme! At first, I didn’t know that it is changing as my local time changes so I am wondering why the background of my Gmail is sometimes with moon and stars and why there are times that the setting seems to be in afternoon. And most of all, the position and activities of the characters in the Tea House is also changing!
Then I realized that the Tea House theme has several settings that indeed follow the user’s time zone. So if I opened my Gmail in the morning, the Tea House Theme setting is in day time and the characters in the Tea House are doing some stuff that we normally do every morning. And if I opened my Gmail around 10 in the evening, the setting is night time and all the characters in the Tea House are all sleeping .
Cool, isn’t it? Have you tried it? The Summer Ocean, Beach, Planets and Mountains Themes are likewise time-sensitive. Like me, I bet you will also like to peek what’s sitting in your background when you open your Gmail in a particular time of the day.
