Nokia 7310 Classic is said to be a cross between Nokia 6300 and 6233. This S40 powered cell phone has nothing new to offer, and has everything that an average cell phone user needs. It can make calls and send text messsages. That is what Nokia 7310 Classic is all about. But still, it has a few more extra-features, that wasn’t expected to see in such type of phone.

Mini-Feed Expanded To Include More Social Data

in Facebook, Internet, Web 2.0

Facebook has again expanded Mini-Feed, and this time it’s not that they have disabled the collapse feature, but have added features to include more social data from other sites. Now you can add your profile links from YouTube, StumbleUpon, Hulu, Pandora, Last.fm, Google Reader, and your personal blog to the list of sites that can share data to Facebook. Facebook’s import feature already had Flickr, Picasa, Digg, Yelp and del.icio.us.

Facebook Expands Mini-Feed Again

Since this is all part of their upcoming profile design, we could expect to see more sites being added. The mini-feed is also part of it, because it is now non-collapsible, and as you have seen it in their upcoming profile design, mini-feed will use almost the whole of front page. This will help your profile visitors (friends, family etc.) to see all your updates on other sites from one place.

Happy Birthday WordPress

My favourite blogging system and the best CMS around turns 5 today, on May 27. I started using WordPress in Feb. 07 on DJ Flush’s (of Sizlopedia) recommendation. I was always a big fan of Joomla, and thought it was the best CMS around. But I just tried WordPress once, and since then there is no looking back!

With all the tons of exciting features, and ease of usability and flexibility of designs, there can be no better CMS than WordPress. I would like to congratulate, Matt and all other WordpPress developers, on its birthday and would like to see it grow more in the coming years.

Introducing Windows 7 With Real Screenshots

If you thought Windows Vista was the end of Windows franchise, then you’re wrong. Currently in development, is Micorosft’s next version of Windows named as Windows 7. It is expected to be released in 2010, four years after the release of Vista. Windows 7 or Windows Seven, was initially codenamed as Blackcomb, but later in 2006 it was renamed as Windows Vienna and last year it was named as Windows 7. Who knows, we might hear a new name by Microsoft this year?

This time Microsoft is expecting to surprise its users and customers with performance tweaks and improvements rather than providing eye-candy visuals like they did in Windows Vista. Some of the latest features in news, regarding Windows 7 are, support for Virtual Hard Disks, new user-interface, a new calculator (totally lame!) etc.
