Did you know the Gmail Chat client has Group Chat built into it?  That’s right, using the Gmail web chat client you can spin up a group chat session and chat with multiple people at the same time in just a matter of seconds.  For me, this feature was entirely overlooked.  Sure, I saw the phone and the camera button, but I completely missed the Group Chat button until MrGroove pointed it out a few days ago when we had a groovyPost team chat.
So, if your the chairman of your companies Party Planning Committee, read on to see how you can spin up a groovy Group Chat session the next time you planning something in the office!
To start using group chat in Gmail, just Click the Add people icon near the top of the chat box.  The screenshot below is a view of Gmail chat in a pop-out window. You can add as many contacts as you’d like to the chat, which makes this a groovy way to text-conference.

Once you’ve added the person, they’ll show up in the chat and will be able to hear any messages you send.  Note that you’ll be knocked out of off the record chat once your 3rd party enters.

Gmail group chat is an often unused and overlooked feature from Google’s email service.  Thanks to learning about this feature, I can now spam multiple people from a single window.  It’s a win for everyone!!!!

According to Hurricane Electric an Internet Service Provider, the Internet will run out of its IPv4 version of IP addresses on 2nd February at around 4am. This is only a predicted time based on a rate of IP addresses assigned every hour.
 

The ISP has also launched a countdown accounts termed as “IPcalypse” on Facebook & Twitter.
IPv4 version of IP addresses supports only 4 billion Unique addresses, which is not enough for Internet as the number of devices are increasing at a rate of over 1 million per hour.


This problem can be solved by using IPv6 version which has 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 (You can call this a Zillion) Unique IP addresses.
Both IPv4 & IPv6 can co-exist despite being largely incompatible. Software and hardware developers are working on transition mechanisms, and most operating systems now install support for IPv6 by default. The IPcalypse campaign by Hurrican Electric is also encouraging other ISPs to change to IPv6.

Approximatel 44.5 million IP addresses are remaining and IPv6 is set to take over!



Generally Computers often get slow because of temporary memory which gets stored in our PC, So we need to Repair the Registry To Speed Up A Computer. A lot can go wrong with computers over time. With regular use, computers can not only develop bad sectors and disk errors, they can also develop registry errors which can render your computer useless. To counter such threats, what you need is regular registry repair, which can assure that the heart of your computer stays fit and you keep getting the best from your machine.


What is Registry?
Registry is the heart of all modern operating systems. It’s the fundamental component where all the critical files needed to run the computer and the various software are listed. It contains critical information such as the values of settings for different programs, users, documents types, system hardware and other things. A slight error in registry can throw your computer in a spin and you on the edge of frustration.
Keeping a check on changes made in registry is beyond any human for its frequency and unconventional nomenclature. Files name usually contain strange permutations of numbers and abbreviations which might not make sense to a human brain.
With registry repair, you can catch the errors early and ensure that nothing much goes wrong with how your computer performs.
Unfortunately, there is no inbuilt tool from Microsoft that can help you maintain registry. You need third party tools to scan and repair registry.

What A Registry Repair Can Do?
A reliable registry repair tool must look for possible errors in registry files and fix them. It should also look for redundant files that consume hard disk and have no role what so ever. A smartly programmed registry repair tool must delete such files and keep the registry as light as possible.

Regular registry repair can help you avoid:
  • Frequent Crashes
  • Blue screen errors
  • Slow performance
  • Data loss
  • Unexpected program termination et al
What you can do on your part to keep these errors at the minimum is try to keep the number of application limited to just what you need. Keep deleting and uninstalling things that you don’t require anymore. With such an approach, you can help registry repair tools perform better.

In just 43 days, the newest Zynga game has managed to hit a milestone no other game has hit before. CityVille now has over 100 million active users, according to AppData.

The game launched on December 2, 2010 and grew faster than any game in history. In just 22 days, CityVille passed FarmVille, another Zynga game, to become the most popular game. At that time, we said the number of users would dip a little at some point because all games aren’t played by everyone who tries them out, but right now CityVille is still growing.

Zynga’s other titles are not nearly as successful as CityVille. Farmville currently has 57.1 million users, Texas HoldEm Poker has 36.3 million users, FrontierVille has 28.3 million users, and Mafia Wars has 18.8 million. Zynga reaches more than half of all Facebook users: it has 286.7 million users, which is significantly ahead of number two and number three: CrowdStar with 47.5 million users and Electronic Arts with 38.7 million users.

Like all of Zynga’s games, CityVille is free, but users can spend real money on virtual goods to enhance their experience of playing the game. Zynga makes a killing in revenue every year from the sale of virtual goods. Three months ago, the company was valued at $5.51 billion, which is more than Electronic Arts.
