I've just read an article on this. All the applications provided by Adobe AIR are very convenient. The designs and layout of the applications are superb as well. After checking them out, I was like "Man, this is going to be my new web toy." However, Adobe AIR is still something very new. Its latest release Adobe CONFIGURATOR 1.0 only came out at end of October this year. If this is well-received and successful, it's going to being another breakthrough to the world of Web Applications. Yeah! way to go Adobe. Adobe simply rocks.

The article on the release of Adobe AIR revealed some promising cool features such as:

• ShifD - Keep your PC and Phone in Sync


• Xdrive Desktop Lite beta


• Finetune Desktop


• Joggle


• Allurent Desktop Connection (ADC)


• AOL Top 100 Music Videos


• Nickelodeon


• Ebay Desktop


• Configuration 1.0, which is the latest buzz from Adobe AIR.

Well, I just had it done for fun sake.

Well, I'm playing this Facebook game called BattleStation. In there, I'm a member of one of the clans called Suikoden. The clan held a Fort Logo Design Competition for all members. I took part in it and here are my submission entries.

This is the winning entry. ^.^

Well before these, I also submitted 2 entries but it turned out they were unusable. -.-"

After reading rumors, I was looking forward for this upgrade to be out and finally it's here - The faster and simpler Window Live Hotmail. This is an effort from Microsoft to stay in competition with the super popular Gmail and Yahoo Mail. I think Microsoft kind of rushing it out to the market because the features that has been promised to be integrated along with the faster speed and new facelift are not there yet. They were put off till 2009. Anyway, I think the extra features are not really of much concern to users for the time being. I guess it's time to get back and be active with my hotmail.

Anyway here are What's New for the new Hotmail:

• 
  
  It's faster and better!


• Enjoy a cleaner look and faster performance.


• You choose how to display your reading pane to preview messages - side, bottom, or off.


• A combined "classic" and "full" version of Hotmail means everyone gets access to all the great features Hotmail has to offer. One version = greater simplicity.


• You choose how to display your reading pane to preview messages - side, bottom, or off.


• A great new contact picker makes it easier to look up contacts when writing an e-mail.


• Type the first few letters of a friend's name or an e-mail address who you want to send an e-mail to, Hotmail fills in the rest.


• Dress up Hotmail with one of several new design themes.

And these are the ones that's promised to be availabled in 2009:

• Ever-growing storage. Your inbox capacity will automatically increase as you need more space².


• IM through Hotmail. See if your Messenger contacts are online and say "Hi! "


• Helpful new calendar features that make it easier to share your calendar with friends and family.

This is my design I produced for my faculty club for our faculty's exam welfare package event.

I'm really blog hopping. Just wanna try out new things on the web. From LiveJournal, Blogspot, Multiply and now Wordpress. I've heard a lot of good things about WordPress. I couldn't help but sing up and try it out to see how.

I'll dedicate my this wordpress blog to my IT, Web, Designs and Entertainment hobbies.
