Blogspot's blog posts archived before WWW created... lol

Haha... Isnt it really funny. While browsing, i came across some of the blog posts archived even before WWW(World Wide Web) created... You can look at the screenshots in the left and right hand side. I'm just wondering how Google's blogger allowed to have such things...? Is it really possible to pre-post the blogs even before the WWW & Blog was created? It left me to research when was really WWW created? I just searched on Wiki, to get the answer.., From Wiki, "...The World Wide Web was created in 1989 by Sir Tim Berners-Lee from England , and Robert Cailliau from Belgium , working at CERN in Geneva , Switzerland ..." Hope Wiki is not lying to me... ;-) . Hmm... So i thought Blog must be created after WWW was created... I guess you might be guessing the same.. some research vaguely shows, from wiki, Usenet was the primary serial medium included in the original definition of the World Wide Web .

Skype's Heartbeat is very fast...!!!

Hmm.. damn from yesterday I'm not able to Log-in to Skype because of major problems in their Sign in and registration AND Peer-to-peer network core problems. From their Heartbeat , "UPDATED 14:02 GMT: Some of you may be having problems logging into Skype. Our engineering team has determined that it’s a software issue. We expect this to be resolved within 12 to 24 hours. Meanwhile, you can simply leave your Skype client running and as soon as the issue is resolved, you will be logged in. We apologize for the inconvenience. Additionally, downloads of Skype have been temporarily disabled. We will make downloads available again as quickly as possible." I have to wait until it is done... Without Skype... Life Sux. I'm very eagerly waiting for you... !!! Tags: Skype Problem , Connection Problem , P2P Core problem , Signin problem

Orkut - Why can't I control my communities?

It is not so long ago, I've written about Orkut death, and other couple of posts about Orkut and now I'm here with couple of reasons why could it happen at anytime. Recently I'm able to see increasing number of communities in Orkut both good and bad and very bad communities.. Even some of our Indian web-site have written like Google is going to shut down the communities in Orkut after many protests in India , and many other incidents recently. I want to ask only one question to Google Inc., Why can't i control my communities notifications like the messages to my "orkut Messages". My Messages are flooded from many communities where I'm member of it. Someone says my son is a member of more than 800 communities then how can it be useful to receive all the messages in Orkut Messages? Why cant you give me control over the communities i joined at least? or Is it a sign of Shutting down communities in orkut? - Or is it time to join any other social networking ...
