Messengers

hi everyone,

I hope those people who r familier with Blogging will definitely know about messengers as well and needs no introduction.

Messengers are providing great communication.

I am going to to about Yahoo and MSN messengers. Both these messengers from the day of introduction has improved a lot in their service. Each one is competing the other in providing better communication. We can always encourage a healthy competetion to make things easier in life.

Yahoo is introducing its new Yahoo messenger 7 now currently in Beta Version available for downloads. The new yahoo messenger provides voice calls, Voice messages , Drag and drop facility of files, Photo sharing etc.

MSN already has released its MSN messegner 7 which has great features too.. MSN’s quality of audio and video is really very good. Yahoo sometimes have some hickups sometimes.

Both Yahoo and MSN messengers are quiet analogoues to each other. In yahoo messenger 7 you can see the shared picture as ur buddy icon same as MSN Messenger 7. MSN introduces MSN winks which was analogous to audibles in earlier yahoo messenger. The comparison goes on….

To say in short both messengers are now looking very attractive and is going beyound just type and communicate…

I forgot to mention about a new Messenger which is really topping the voice communication. SKYPE. It uses peer to peer voice communication technique and voice clarity is really very good.

There are siginficant improvements to other messengers in market. But for me i use only Yahoo and MSN.

oK.. c u all..

Desktop Searches

Hi,

I hope everybody is familiar on search engines. If we talk about search engines we will remember only internet search engines and of course “Google”. Earlier searching was very slow until Google introduced caching mechanism to cache files and to display them immediately within in very short period of time. It was actually old concept but earlier due to lack of resources it was not very successful. In olden days cost per GB space was very high. But now a days cost per GB (Disk Space) is very low. Thus caching technology has become very popular.

Now this has reached even to desktops. First it was “Google” again who introduced desktop search and now is available for download at http://desktop.google.com. It is very impressive and very fast.

Following Google Yahoo and Microsoft (MSN) also introduced desktop search engines. Always when it comes to Google and others is the presentation layer. When you take yahoo mail and Google mail and hotmail the presentation layer in Google is not rich as yahoo or hotmail.

Now MSN has introduced a desktop search which very impressive and very attractive to use. It can be downloaded from http://toolbar.msn.com.

As I mentioned earlier if we were to compare the presentation tier, msn is very good. Every thing always has their own plus and minuses. In Google Desktop Search everything is text based results and going through one by one is pretty tough for non computer savvy’s but on the other hand MSN’s presentation makes easier for the beginner to get to their file easily.

The minus behind is it is eating of lot of resources. Google in windows machines uses three services namely GoogleDesktop.exe, GoogleDesktopCrawl.exe and GoogleDesktopIndex.exe. The total memory consumed for all the three services is less than 10,000K. On the other hand MSN uses windowssearch.exe, windowsSearchfiler.exe and WindowsSearchIndexer.exe which eats up to 20000K of memory.

If your system is running low on resources I would recommend you to go on google desktop search, but if you have enough resources and would like to experience the visual goodies install MSN Desktop Search and experience it.

I have installed Both ;) to try both and experience both as per my time needs. I love MSN and I like Google very much.

Thanks for your time.

Have a nice day
