Hi!

It's a long time since I've decided not to post simple day-to-day not useful posts on Sharplife.NET; meanwhile this damn busy life doesn't allow me to post large technical posts about .NET, so if you are interested to follow some links and tiny posts you can follow me on Twitter, Jaiku, Plurk or Pownce.

I'll try to write some technical stuff periodically.

Don't forget to take a look at tabassom.com

 

I have 9 Jaiku invitations left. Everyone who wants to receive one, please leave his/her name and email address in comment of THIS post.

Forget to say I'm at mahdi.jaiku.com!


UPDATE: I sent all 9 invitations and I don't have anymore left.

 

It's a few months that Yahoo! and MSN (or Live) users can use a single Messenger to communicate with their friends. If you have a Yahoo! ID and use Yahoo! Messenger then you can add your friends which have an MSN Messenger or Live ID and vice versa. But many users still use Messengers other than Yahoo! and Live. For example Google Talk have recently found many spectators because of its simple and fast desktop client and ease of use, or many old Internet users still prefer their AOL account.

In addition, if you have multiple IDs in various networks and you have to use all of them at same time you need to have at least 3 messengers (GTalk, Yahoo or Live and AIM). It is equal to waste of memory and resources of your PC. So what the solution is?

Recently I found meebo.com, a web based Instant Messaging service for Yahoo!, MSN, AIM and Google Talk. You can enter your login information and start instant messaging immediately in one browser page. meebo uses AJAX to communicate with server and has a user friendly environment.

You can also chat with other meebo users in its rooms, use meebome.com on your personal website to chat with your visitors and more.

 

UPDATE: Forgot to mention that meebo supports many languages including Persian and also support ICQ and Jabber.

 

You may recently heared something about Yahoo! new mail system which is powered by AJAX technology. Yahoo has provided a page for its users to sign up for this new service and try it. After you sign up, Yahoo! may invite you to try it. But here's a short way for you to try it before Yahoo invites you. Just follow these steps:

1- Login to your Yahoo! mailbox.
2- Click on Options at the right side.
3- Click on Account Information at the left side. (You may need to re-enter your password in this step.)
4- In the Member Information section click on Edit link.
5- In the next page you see a section named "General Preferences"; locate Preferred Content, then click on the link provided there (e.g.: Yahoo U.S.).
6- In the next page select Yahoo! United Kingdom for New Setting and click on Finished button.
7- Accept Terms of Service of Yahoo! UK & Ireland.
8- Now, sign out of your account and re-login to your mailbox.
9- You see a page with this message: "It's the New Yahoo! Mail Beta... and you're invited."
10- Click on Try Beta Now yellow button at the right side.
11- Enjoy Yahoo! Mail Beta ;)

 

Recently a persian weblog has started its work. This weblog name is Farazesh (which means Sublimation in English). Hamid Farazesh wrote about Love in his first post, mentiond some poets of Rumi and said something about Valentine and this conecpt among ancient Iranian people.

If you know Persian language, inetersted in Rumi¹ and his poems, want to know more about love concepts in Masnawi or if you are a researcher looking for some writings about these subjects I suggest you read this weblog.

As I know Farazesh content won't be limited to this subject and you may read about law, Islamic thoughts, ...

I welcome this weblog and want you to link to it if find it useful.
