GOOGLE NOTIFIER for Mac OS




The Google Notifier is a nice tiny application used for Mac OS that regularly checks if you have any incoming email. It is pretty useful except for one tiny problem; there is no way to configure how many minutes you want the application to check your Gmail account. A simple way to get around it is to do the following:

1) Click on the mail icon   2) Hold down command (APPLE) and option (ALT) keys while clicking on preferences in the drop down box. you will be prompted with a box that has a key and value prompt   3) Type “AutocheckInterval” under key (case-sensitive) and then under value type in the number in  minutes of how often you want it checked.   4) You will need to restart the application by quitting and opening it again.   5)  If it does'nt work, manually modify the file in Library/Preferences/com.google.GmailNotifier.plist.   6)  Add the new value AutocheckInterval and the string value is 1 (if you want the notifier to check every minute). It can be customized as per our convenience.

GOOGLE LAUNCHES OS


Google Inc. is planning to hit Microsoft Corp. where it hurts by challenging the software giant's dominance in the world of computer operating systems. The search firm said that it will begin offering its own operating system, called Chrome, in the second half of 2010. While Google already offers a host of products that compete with Microsoft, the new operating system is a direct challenge to Microsoft Windows, which is the most widely used operating system in the world.The new system will initially be targeted at netbooks which are small, inexpensive laptop computers used mostly for Internet access.

Google said the new operating system will make use of open source programming, which allows third-party developers to design compatible add-onsMany netbooks currently run a version of Linux, or Microsoft's old operating system, Windows XP. Microsoft has said its current Vista operating system is too big to run on the scaled-down laptops, but it said netbooks will be able to run its Windows 7 OS, set to debut in late October. The new operating system comes after Google launched its Chrome Internet browser late last year.
