Is Yahoo Testing Meme On Yahoo Mail?
2009-09-10 07:50:00 A few days back, we had written about how Yahoo’s upcoming product Meme can fight Twitter. One of the ways we had suggested was to integrate Yahoo meme with the existing Yahoo properties like mail, messenger, etc. Yahoo Meme’s homepage still reads ‘Coming Soon’. But looks like a lot of background activity is already happening. Apparently, Yahoo is testing the meme feature integration on Yahoo mail. This testing is currently visible on the Yahoo India mail boxes. A Yahoo.com mail I tried with did not have the feature. Testing Meme on Yahoo India! But, nothing on Yahoo.com mail.. The new ‘updates’ box is asking me “What are you doing right now?”. However, you do not get to receive updates from other friends on your contacts list rightaway. Users have to choose whom to receive contacts from and only after approval from other side do you get to see their updates. A nice nifty feature to get people get social from the mailbox. Remembe...

Police testing non-crime guns
2009-08-21 22:27:00 Snowflakes points to a case where the police insist on testing a gun that the owner handed over after a traffic accident. I think it is a waste of time and resources for the police to run a ballistics test on any firearm that happens to come into their possession, especially from situations that are not crime scenes. From the article it seems to me that the police have a “policy” that is at odds with the law.

Interviewing a Testing Expert - Phil Kirkham
2009-08-01 19:16:00 I am back again with yet another interesting Interview with a Testing Expert; this time with Phil Kirkham (from UK) who is a Programmer turned Tester turned Test Consultant at Acutest. He writes about testing on his blog at Expected Results! He is a Moderator of Software Testing Club and Testing Reflections as well. I felt it would be exciting to interview him and when I approached him he was kind enough to honor my interest in taking his interview. Here is what Phil has to say: Debasis: What led you to become a software tester? And what was the topmost reason that attracted you to the field of testing?Phil: I was working as a programmer but the s/w we were sending out was of really poor quality and the customers were getting more and more irate. My boss knew I had a knack for breaking things and debugging so asked if I would help out with the testing effort. At the same time I was also thinking about a career change after 20 years of programming, I'd got a few career change bo...
