Invent your old wheels

As I mentioned in a previous post; now I'm ready to invent my own old wheels! My old wheels are my old thoughts, ideas, projects, wishes, habits, anything that I've forgotten due to my busy life

Inventing your old wheels means that you look back at the old stuff you used to do in the past that could be the wishes you used to dream of, the passion inside of you that motivated your desires and goals in life, your old ideas and projects you've always wanted to do or to make ... and make new things out of them.

For me, I admit that I didn't get the right chances or the right tools to make my own way in life, but now everything just changed and I've got what it takes to start inventing my wheels.

I found my old dusty notebook where I used to write down all my ideas, thoughts & plans; of course most of them are not applicable now but still some of them inspired me with new ideas that I'm planning to work on one by one.

You just need to look back at your old thoughts and how you used to think about them at that time, read them again and again and I'm sure you'll discover new things  when the "New You" read what "You" wrote before.

Just break your routine - as my friend Mohaly talked about in his post - start acting now, discover your old opportunities and open new gates in your life to go through.

Don't waste more time .. you already have the right tools to invent your old wheels!

Back on track

I know it was quite long time since my last post and I do apologize for that but that was out of my hands as I was sick in bed.

Actually it wasn't that bad as I got the chance to think about some issues that made me busy for long time trying to find a solution for; and also thinking about new ideas, experiments and different projects.

What I want to share with you here is that if you start creating a chance for yourself to "Think" differently and positively about your life and things surrounding you from time to time; will probably make you discover new opportunities and let you see things clearly and put parts all together to create that thing that you were looking for.

Just give yourself another chance and think carefully and wisely, look at it with different perspectives and all things will make sense to you.

Trust me .. it happened to me .. just try it and give yourself this chance .. stop what you are doing now and think .. just think before you act

Breaking News!! ... Gtalk & Yahoo Messenger Union

Yahoo! & Google are connecting their popular IM (Internet Messenger) clients together. It'd be the same as Yahoo! & MSN Live Messenger get connected together long time ago.Gtalk & Yahoo Connection

The good thing now is that you don't need any third parties to talk to your  Gtalk friends using your Yahoo! messenger which is a great benefit for Yahoo! users to talk to both Gtalk friends and MSN Messenger friends using only Yahoo! messenger.

As I was expecting before, the Net World's Map is about to change soon, and it seems that the procedures already started ...

Stay cool and enjoy the new features .. Cheers ;)

Opera 9.5 .. beautifully engineered

I'm a big fan of Firefox, since my friend Bo2Bo2 told me about it and it quickly became my default browser.Opera9

While the countdown started for the big release of Firefox 3 - check my post - Opera just released the new version Opera 9.5 and I decided to give it a try as am opened for all technology contributions that could help net people.

Here's my keynotes for Opera 9.5 1st takeoff:

  1. I must admit it that I'm really get impressed by the new interface - cause this is the 1st thing that I look for of course ;P - Opera did really a good job changing the interface to something neat and with more than one color theme you'll have your favorite color.Operascreen
  2. Loading pages was fast due to the new engine Opera started to use
  3. Lot of new added features arise in the application like adding notes to sites you visit, supporting widgets, and the quick find where you can search quickly using the Google Autosuggest feature in the address bar is great added value
  4. Spead Dial feature is a set of visual bookmarks you see when you open a new tab, like a dashboard for your online life
  5. Mouse Gestures: (alike Gmail Labs new feature) where you can navigate the Web with your mouse. A mouse gesture is performed while clicking and holding the right mouse button and moving the mouse in an easy pattern.
  6. Opera Link: where you can syncs your bookmarks and Speed Dial between your computers and mobile phone so you will be able to open your bookmarks from anywhere

I've already tested our sites and of course I found some bugs and errors which I'm not sure about yet, but what I'm really believe in is that I should start investigating and put a new plan to start supporting Opera. I believe that the browsers world's map is about to change sooner or later ... Stay cool ;)

PS @Nour: I think we have a lot of work to be done my friend, be prepared ;P

When language fails, a picture really is worth a thousand words

That was the motto of the new languagemenospeak campaign made by "me no speak".  This campaign reminded me of those old days when we used to teach children using pictures to make them understand the text meaning. It's the same thing here but for different languages.

I wish I can see more of these new/old ways in making life easier when it comes to different languages ;)
