Gmail Promised To Give More Space

Monday 15 October 2007 @ 1:04 pm

GmailMy personal Gmail account was running out of space before I did a massive clean up couple weeks ago, by deleting all emails with large attachments.

Well, now I’m expecting such problem will not occur again after this official news from Gmail blog. At the moment, Gmail storage is ever increasing as part of their “Infinity+1” storage plan. Now Gmail is going to speed up the counter and giving out more free storage as time passes by. In other words, it simply means you’ll be rewarded with more and more storage space in every second, every minute and everyday!

Hopefully, your Gmail account will not run out of space unless your rate of using the email storage is faster than the rate of Gmail increase their storage space. :D




Nokia Focus On Mobile Map Navigation

Nokia is going full force into expanding their mobile mapping service by offering to buy US-based Navteq for a massive US$8.1billion. Navteq is a company which develops digital maps for the car industry, satellite navigation devices, internet-based mapping applications and solutions for the government and business markets.

Early this year, Nokia rolled out their mobile mapping service called Smart2go. I even have a post about the review of Smart2Go, which was done by a reader of mine, Hafiz Ismail.

Microsoft’s Web-Based Office Application

Wednesday 3 October 2007 @ 4:15 am

After quite some time Google launched its Google Docs & Spreadsheets, Microsoft finally unveiled its web-based office application called Microsoft Office Live Workspace today. Basically, it a web-based feature of Microsoft Office that lets people access their Office documents online and share their the documents with others.

Microsoft Office Live Workspace

I would say Microsoft Office Live Workspace is almost identical to Google Docs & Spreadsheets but with a number of limitations. There is only 250 megabytes of storage allocated for each account, or space to keep over 1,000 Office documents. The system requirement for Microsoft Office Live Workspace is as the following :-

  • Internet Explorer 6.0 or later on Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista
  • Firefox 2.0 on Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Vista
  • Firefox 2.0 on Mac OS X 10.2.x and later

No information on how it will run in a Unix system though.
