yahoo mail vs gmail

interface
*if you had used microsoft outlook before yahoo mail s reading will be similar but gmail provides you a cleaner n simpler look n approach :)

languages
*if you want to send emails in any other language other than english yahoo provides 25 , but let me tell you gmail goes a step further :) wel may be more n provides 52 languages~!!~! i swear :)
so one point for  gmail

attachments
*both gmail and yahoo allows you to add attachments simultaneously n ofcourse both allows a drag and drop attachments, but yahoo mail requires you to install an add on application while gmail does this right out of the box. :) one more for gmail :)

messages
*yahoo lists out s mails similar to outlook where as gmail does it like conversation.

chat
*both yahoo n gmail comes with a built in chat function . this can save time, as its quicker and easier to send instand messages to someone who s online .

contacts

*gmail automatically keeps addresses that you ve emailed in your contact list. where as yahoo requires a manual approach which includes boring too many clicks :( ~! so again gmail wins:)

spam
*gmailseems more capable of correctly identifying and banishing span then yahoo~! mail

organisation
*yahoo mail uses folders to organise your emails, while gmail uses labels. gmails labels have all the functionality of folders and more, as you can add more than one label to a conversation

conclusion: gmail scores a strike,thanks to its cutting edge features and better spam protection:)

Microsoft Office 2010 launches three years after the 2007 edition blew us away. With its brand-new Ribbon interface, it turned our perceptions completely on their heads. This version by comparison has only a few cosmetic changes to offer, and it seems that the programs are struggling to appear fresh.
The Ribbon now makes its way to every program in the suite. Outlook, Access, OneNote and Publisher had previously been left out (or spared, depending on your opinion). The major news is that you can reorganize tabs and chunks so that everything is where you prefer. You can even turn off entire tabs if you like. The freedom is welcome, but could make button placement even less predictable for those who aren’t sure which commands live where. Of the three color schemes, Silver was the only one in which button labels and sidebar text were easily readable.
The round ‘Office’ button in each app is now replaced by a color-coded ‘File’ button, which brings up what’s called the ‘Backstage view’, a full-screen dialog box which includes classic File menu operations such as ‘Open’, ‘Save’ and ‘Print’. The rest of the screen is filled with your document’s properties and shortcuts to common tasks. Sadly, the list of recent documents is now an extra few clicks away. ‘Open’ and ‘Save’ launch their usual dialog boxes, whereas ‘Print’ and the new ‘Save & Send’ options use the Backstage space. A new option, Save to Web, uses Windows Live SkyDrive for storage. The Print dialog now includes page previews to save time, but also gives you less space. The final ‘Print’ button is in the top-left corner, the opposite of its usual spot.

Office Live Web apps are launching alongside Office 2010.

verdict: microsoft is mircosoft :)

save or run

so, i guess your one of the many people who is confused while downloading whether to select the "save" or "run" option,if so i am here to clarify it .


RUN
The word run means is simply to run as in simply to do the specified task. When u click the run option two successive tasks are involved
* the content ur downloading is first stored in "temporary internet folder" or else "temporary folder of windows".
*the file your downloading simply starts executing once the download has been completed. That is if its an .jpg file a picture file is opened .

*when you select the run option the downloaded file is going to be lost eventually as its in temporary folder.
*run can also mean OPEN WITH.
*the file runs as if the windows explorer navigated the download to the exact file type.


SAVE
Save simply means to write the file into your hard disk. The big difference is the file you ve downloaded is found in the folder which you ve specified.
*the big difference between save and run is in save the file is stored in a permanant location you choose to run,delete or jus keep it there., you can always make use of it in the future


WHEN TO USE SAVE
when you want to keep what ever you ve downloaded i mean u wish to run it or not but when you need it u should go for save.

WHEN TO USE RUN
when you need the "downloaded" only once, perhaps a video or a picture file only for one use you should go for "run".
