Weekly Highlights [Aug 1, 2005 – Aug 7, 2005]

Monday 8 August 2005 @ 12:34 am

Though the 24 hours Blogathon is already over, you are still encouraged to register then donate some money. You wont be charged instantly online, instead you be contacted through email instructing you how to pay. Please note that, all donations go directly to the charities.

Besides this meaningful Blogathon campaign, let’s take a look of what I wrote for the last whole week. By the way, I was not very productive last week, maybe due to some freelance stuffs. :p

Monday
On Monday, Hewlett-Packard (HP) announced that they have decided to stop shipping HP branded iPod media players, which they started selling HP branded iPods in August 2004.

Tuesday
AMD added Athlon 64 X2 3800+ to their 64bit Dual Core desktop processor family and priced just under USD$370 (RM1,406). Besides, I showed you two Gmail notifiers, which will notify you for new Gmail messages, either from a desktop application or Firefox browser plugin.

Wednesday
I found a funny link some time ago, and decided to share with you all on last Wednesday. It is about “Microsoft Teaches You How To Uninstall Linux“. There is an article posted in the Help & Support Center of Microsoft website which teaches you how to remove Linux and install Windows XP. :D On the same day, Apple released their newly designed Mighty Mouse, which has several new innovative features that make using a Mac even more powerful and easy.

Thursday
Last week, we have heard so many bloggers been banned by Google from using AdSense. Fortunately, Yahoo came at the right time to announce Yahoo ad network for small Web publishers intended to compete against rival Google in text based ad. Hopefully, this service will provide an alternative to those been banned. I also revealed the fact that actually Mozilla Firefox suffered more attacks than Internet Explorer in the year 2005, according to Secunia.

Friday
Fujitsu is selling its AMD Turion based LaptopS2000 Series, on their website within only 1 month AMD claimed that Fujitsu-Siemens was hiding its AMD computers on its website and removing all references to commercial AMD-powered products in the company’s retail catalog.

Saturday
Well, the IT world is evolving in a very rapid speed, this is no doubt. This fact is pr oven when an Austrian hacker wrote what are thought to be the first known viruses for Microsoft’s Windows Vista operating system (OS), after only 8 days the beta version of the OS was released !! Anyway, though the evolution is so rapid, there are still some nice bloggers in this world, who were writing articles in a rapid pace too, 30 minutes an article non stop for 24 hours, for the Blogathon Campaign. It’s still not too late to pledge, just register, then you can donate.

Sunday
One week ago, I revealed a trick on how to bypass the Windows® Genuine Advantage validation process, yesterday, I revealed another one. >:)
