Import mails and contacts from other accounts to Gmail
Tuesday, May 19, 2009

It’s been a quite long when everyone switched from various other mail accounts to Gmail not because it belongs to the GOOGLE family. We always had good reasons to support, may it be different interfaces like standard, HTML, Mobile or Text or may it be the first of its kind with huge amount of space for free and others features like chat, filters, labeling of mails and also one account to use so many applications.

Even after so long we still have to track other accounts as well but Googlers have found a solution to this also…

Now one can track his other email accounts like Yahoo!, Hotmail, AOL, etc. by using the one single Gmail account.

To start with this one needs to go to “Gmail Settings” and then to “Accounts and Imports” tab. Remember if u have an old Gmail account this feature may not available for u now but it is there for new accounts, Google will soon be upgrading the old accounts.

In the meanwhile if you are so eager to use this service then create a new Google account and use this feature and again redirect all the mails to your old existing account…

Monday, April 27, 2009

This is a new feature added to Gmail to avoid its users waiting to upload and attach an image. Also this gives it a nice appearance.



All you need to do is that in the in rich formatting mode just click on the image icon and there you will have two ways to add images i.e., uploading images directly from your computer or by providing URLs.

A new laptop buying option-Lenovo
Sunday, December 21, 2008

Here's for all those guys and girls planning to buy a new laptop

Apparently Lenovo is planning to unveil a ThinkPad notebook with a dual display in a about a month's time,though this is a news yet to be released but here are some of the features that are planning to be included in this unique new laptop


As the name suggests it's a laptop with dual screens,the main screen is 17 inches and the secondary screen is 10.6 inches.


The dual-screen setup is basically designed for photographers, graphic artists, and application developers.


It offers either an Intel Core 2 Quad Core or a Core 2 Dual Core, and it can be configured with a solid-state drive.

One drawback to this laptop can be the increase in weight due to the weight of the other screen but the features overshadow the drawbacks and is a good buying option with additional features like the face recognition tool.

The lappy will be released in a month's time in las vegas at the consumer electronics show.
