Finally IMAP..!!

It has been a sine wave plot honestly this week with its and bits of good and bad news flowing around. I wont touch the bad part really but coming straight to the good. Google has finally come up with the IMAP which is absolutely "wow" news. IMAP is internet message access protocol. It is a method of accessing electronic mail or bulletin board messages that are kept on your mail server. In other words, it permits a "client" email program to access remote message stores as if they were local. The people for use there free POP ( like me ) facility to forward mails to mail applications face a problem of re-reading or re arranging things on ur actual gmail account on the web site. But with IMAP, things get shway ! You organise your emails from any device and at the same time , your emails on the web site will also be organised. It has started but not all the gmail accounts really have been spell bound with this facility. Not mine either :-( . But no worries, its going to be activated real soon which will definately take them that extra mile ahead from all the free email providers.

And whilst writing this post, I cant let go of the thought that Leopard is just about to release and the clocks ticking ( apple dot com). Right now, 2 hrs to go for the release. It really gives me creeps by the thought that leopard will be of arnd 6 gb on torrents which is terrbily huge for my inept 256 kbps connection. But if nothing pans out, i'll have to download no matter how much time it takes.

Watching windows grow older with 2000 to Xp and from Xp to vista, only the visual effects and eye candy stuff really take the centre stage. Whereas Mac did what it does best. Innovation !! With 300 + features and arguably the most advanced OS ! But obv lets not go into the raptures about it right now. Wait for my Tiger upgrade to Leopard, then only things will get sweeter. :-)

Not to forget my fantasy team which is doing pretty much ok but still my keeper always riding a different horse right from the day. There is not much difference in the top 5 teams now which am sure will be a nail biting finish towards the end. And cant wait for the biggie this weekend. Am actually afraid to say biggie watching Liverpool stumbling to qualify for the next round of champions league with their horrifying defeat against a shit turkish club, Besiktas. And with a game against Arsenal who just seem to score at will at the moment and honestly playing some B-E-A-utifull football, really ! I really fancy a nil nil draw at anfield this sunday . Lets hope Liverpool find their scoring boots cuz Ars and Manu are playing Juggernauts right now thrashing everybody and the lead is getting painfully bigger everyweek.

I read this news on the BBC which doesnt require any comments :


I mean WTF ? How do these things happen really in our country .. Amazing !!
