Well, you probably have heard of the new MSN Toolbar Suite that is their answer to Google’s desktop search. To install it you need to have IE 5.01 (if you want the popup blocker then IE 5.5+), XP or Win 2000 (with SP4) and Outlook 2000 (or higher) or Outlook Express 6.0 (or higher) if you need to search in emails and half-gig of recommended disk space. Feel free to check out a list of all the features. If you fancy checking it out, then you can download it for free too (its about 4.8 mb). I still have not tried it yet, will give it a spin and upload my findings over the holidays sometime (no time in the short term and no broadband at home). Has anyone else tried it? What have your experiences been?

After legal and environmental issues, finally Google has launched street view for UK! There are 25 cities covered only at this point; I know both London and Oxford are covered. You can check out the Computing Lab at Oxford (where I study) or Avanade’s offices in London (where I work). {via Mark}... - October 21, 2008 -- Is Cloud Computing workable? (0)
I think this post brings up some interesting aspects of cloud computing and the scenarios within which you should look at to use this. If you are an enterprise then this might be more of a moot point – but the fact is one cannot take things for granted. It is quite timely as I was thinking of syncing up Meenakshi’s calendar from Outlook to Google. Her laptop had crashed and she was without her calendar – interestingly she missed not having access to her calendar more than her emails – but that ...
