Well that sums it up, just got back from a very hard week of work so would rather start posting with a quickie.

Apple iPhone went on sale today in NY and I will get mine by tomorrow. Keep reading for pictures and features. Check out more about the lines that were there here at 5th Avenue where I work.

Google Desktop is now available for Linux platforms. Wow that’s one thing I wanted always now I can seriously search and find files on my test Linux box. This is a beta version though so can expect a lots of bugs.

This version supports searching text, thunderbird emails, openoffice docs, images, music in addition to searching pdf and other files.

Windows Live Folders is finally live and I am closed beta tester so hang on for the product review.

And finally I am back to blogging, do apologize for the lack of posts over the last week. Got to catch on a lot of unread feeds too, so a long weekend ahead for me.

    I was told that the beta service was closed. Is that the same error you got nirmal?

    I don’t think so Madhur, I guess they are using IP address to verify that you are from the US.
