Use one website to access all IM?s
2007-08-18 12:14:00
The web has come a long way and so has IM capabilities. In today?s fast and busy lives it is really hard when you are trying to chat with different people via different Instant Messaging services ( Google, MSN, Yahoo, AOL, etc ). Try Meebo which combines all the major IM services including AIM, MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, Google Talk and Jabber. All you have to do is create a free account at Meebo and sign in to whatever chat service you want. And the best thing is you don?t even have to download anything as everything runs in the browser itself. So instead of running numerous chat clients on your tray just try this website and chat with all your friends through one website. Its hard not to love this site.www.meebo.com

Cell phones today are not just a device to communicate. It has become a useful tool in all facets of our lives from communication to being productive. With cell phones ranging in prices from $150 ? 550 easily it has become hard for working individuals to buy a device that can ease their lives as a productivity tool as well. In my search for the cheapest and best kind of productivity cell phones I came across a great device and service that is offered by helio. For new members you can purchase these great cell phones for between 100 ? 300 USD and they are definitely one of the best devices both in terms of looks and productivity.My personal favorite is The Helio Ocean. This is the first cell phone that slides two ways to provide you with a numeric keypad for dialing numbers and a full keyboard for your productivity needs.

Another great browser game
2007-08-11 04:53:00
I have been addicted to this game ever since I found it. It seems like a childish game but it is extremely addictive. This game will remind you of the classic Atari arcade game Marble Madness.The main motive in this game is to move a silver ball to a vortex so you can proceed to another level. You are timed on each level and it might seem easy at first but as you go higher this game will test your strategy. Enjoy the game!Silversphere
