Did you notice that Google has a new favicon? Google has replaced the upper-case blue “G” in a blue, green and red borders with a lower-case purple “g” in a white backgrond. The new Google favicon is located here in 16×16 pixels ICON format.

The first time when I saw it, I can’t believe my eyes. I thought something wrong with my browser caching mechanism. But after googling around, I found that it is a real thing that Google has changed their favicon. Some people said that the new favicon looks similar to Ghostscript logo. Personally, I still prefer the old favicon. What do you think?

I received an invitation email from txtbuddies inviting me to register as a member. I quickly register myself as a member. Within a minute, I am now a member of txtbuddies and I can now send free SMS to any members within Australia and Malaysia. Currently, txtbuddies is in the beta test mode and these two countries are ad sponsored region. So, how about the destination SMS without ad sponsored? Can we send? Yes, you can by purchasing credits online in txtbuddies using PayPal and major credit cards. Hopefully after the beta test mode, more regions will be part of the ad sponsored region.

Feeling bored at home or at work? I stumble upon this small little chess game called NetChess. NetChess is developed by RS Software Lab. With NetChess, you can play chess with your local computer. You can also play it with an opponent over a local network or over an Internet. To accomplish this, both players need NetChess installed. One of the player will host the game and the other join the game via IP address.

Be sure to download NetChess and start playing today. Enjoy your game.
