eChalk colour perception: This is the most amazing optical effect in the world
All I can say is Whoa!! That is unreal. You really must check it out and see the difference to the color an object by other surrounding objects. Once you check it out, I am sure you are gonna go
Whoa.. This is freaky ;-)

Ipod Nano
Apple has launched the IPod Nano, a new mini Ipod player which is based on solid state flash memory. It comes with 2 and 4 GB capacities with each capacity coming in black and white colors making a total of four models. It also has the awesome click wheel which is ultra touch sensitive and insanely fun to use.
It has the color screen using which you can also use the nano as a digital photo album. A smaller IPod photo.
And it’s dimensions are even more sleek. It is smaller than an average playing card and thinner than a regular wood pencil. Now is that nano or what :-D
Along with the new IPod release, Apple has also unveiled the Motorola ROKR the first phone with Itunes in it. It usually ships with 512 MB or flash card which can store about 100 songs. So more good news for those require integrated phone cum music player.

It’s been quite sometime since I posted but I have been soo busy lately that I have not had the time to post. But I’ll be trying to do it more often henceforth.
Google Talk – First impression – Nothing special about it
Okay, on first use of the Google Talk IM client, it gives a nice clean interface with none of the clutter of Yahoo Messenger or the MSN messenger. You can send text messages or call them at the click of a button. A mouse button that is! ;-)
Well that’s where the positive points end. The client is extremely barebones. No frills and alike. It does not even support emoticons/smileys which everyone else is so used to. The write box in IM message windows is not resizable and provides only a single line of typing.
It does not support invisible mode when you want to be logged in to the network but do not want to be available to others.
Though Google Talk is supposed to be supported by all open source IM clients, there is a catch. You cannot use voice chatting with any of the client except the official Google client. And very conviniently, google has skipped releasing clients for Linux and the MacOS. So if you want to use Google Talk, chat with your friends, first purchase MS windows and use the official google client. Quite an expensive talk I would say ;-)
On the whole, summarising it, there is nothing breakthrough in the Google Talk client. Infact it is sorely lacking in features and completely ignores non-windows users. I feel the release was a rush job by google and they only wanted to release the application for the sake of releasing a new product and nothing more. Atleast till more features are available, I will not be using google talk and will be available only on my favorite Yahoo Messenger :-D
Google : Taking over the Web?
Google has just released it’s newest product, the Google IM client, christened Google Talk. It is supposedly based on the Jabber instant messaging protocol and can be used with other IM clients like Aim, Y! and MSN Messenger.
