I’ve been using computers for almost 12-13 years now and all these while, I hardly found anyone who knew a little bit about computers and who stood up and proudly said that they love Microsoft. All these while, I always found people whining about various aspects of Windows, which they didn’t like.

Google has planned that they’ll shut down Lively, their 3d chat room service. All tech pundits thought that Google was trying to make Lively as the competition to Second Life, however it seems that Google realized that it was just too tough for them to bring Lively to the same level as Second Life is.
It’s funny that Lively which was released this year only will not be able to even complete 1 year and will be shut down by the search engine giant. The service will continue till 31st december, 2008 and then will be inaccessible to anyone.
Here’s what the google blog post says -
It has been a tough decision, but we want to ensure that we prioritize our resources and focus more on our core search, ads and apps business. Lively.com will be discontinued at the end of December
If Google realized that then I think it’s good although, it definitely was one good looking tool to play with and I’m sure Google would only have got more and more information to organize (that’s their motto) if they would have continued the service.

Last time when I reviewed AVG Internet Security 8, I gave it 5/5 and it deserved it too. However, I noticed that many commenters on that particular blog post faced lot of issues in upgrading the antivirus and just now I came across this post from Cnet where they are reporting that an update of Avg internet security 8 is triggering false alarm to one of the important system file (user32.dll) in Windows XP (guess what XP SP3 wasn’t any good).

You meet someone, somewhere or may be you just found them online and the next thing which you do is add them to Facebook, Myspace, LinkedIn etc. Now this is all good as you are building contacts, however are you keeping a follow up? How often do you email them, talk to them? I guess the answer will be nothing new than mine… I hardly email to those people.
