Google WAVE. Got the invite a week back. was realy excited to check out all the features i had heard about and watched about it in Utube! but Damn it was disappointing The UI is DAMN not for a intuitive user kindah! Took five google searches to find how the heck i got 2 invite ma frnds into Google WAVE. Once u mute a WAVE, stil i am unable to find a way to UNMUTE! Moreover, am still finding hard to figure out how to see that most promised feature of REAL TIME TYPING VISUALIZATION! where you see waht characters your friend is typing before even he hits Enter/Send! So far, i could totaly say its a Real Hype and a TRUE BETA! the least first product which amused me the least from Google!!

This week was interesting with an issue -> SCSF memory leakage along with other issues on the IIS ! As i had stressed in my other blog posts, SCSF is awsome with lil bugs in itself, we users coding things with out knowing it completely is a HUUUGE mistake. All we end up doing is lot of mistakes and one among them was making the GC luk like a pathetic Goose, who cant collect any of the objects from memory. All due to the wonderful hot wiring of objects we did so unintentionaly!! ;) We had lot of issues pertaining to the view not getting disposed, one fix was done as said in the codeplex thread, http://www.codeplex.com/smartclient/Thread/View.aspx?ThreadId=18386 but on immediate apply of it, dont be surprised if you get a Stack overflow exception when you have Layout view with multiple views inside them! To fix it, you need to skip overriding the The OnCloseView of the base presenter, and have your custom method say public void CloseTheView() { //and call the base closeView in ...

Just bumped in to the article about Google Caffeine @ techtree.com http://www.techtree.com/India/Guides/Google_Caffeine_Promises_a_Stimulating_Effect/551-105887-584-4.html wont say tat the article was reallll impressive but then i found tat google Caffeine existed and i got the URL from it ;) So Danke TechTree!! I had always wondered how to remove a search entry from the Google History in a easy manner. I had wanted to pause Search History using a Dell Pause Play Button kidah stuff on my browser window or atleast in the google search page ;) but then Google caffeine has the ability to REMOVE a indexed/saved search query from your history! You could see the option "Remove" next to my indexed search query which is listed based on Auto Completion. Of all other milliseconds wise comparison, this should be a feature which should attract geeks ;) I even tried n found that this feature is NOT integrated so far in the original Google Search. ;)

I got to admit am not tat gr8 @ vocabulary. . I do look up the meaning of the words which i stumble up on. Mostly its a search query "Meaning [word]". I do use both Bing and Google. Lets not debate here which is btr, i do feel both have their speciality. Considering Google Caches the search queries of mine if you had turned on Caching, lets forget the security risks, pro's & cons stuff. I know for sure i cant memorize the entire Dictionary, but then i can do stumble up on words on an increasing frequency and i SHOULD keep track of the words i just found the meaning of. I was thinking why not use the Google search history for that. I was compelled to Search " meaning" in the google web history. There was no option to add an Extra Filter say "Meanings/Synonym" along with "Web, Images, Sponsored Link" blah blah blah.. I seriously think custom filters can be added. No EXPORT as Xlsx button!!! Thats got to be really cool & innovative. I ...
