Microsoft have been doing their job recently and here’s a new “preview” of their new Windows Live Wave 4. Supposedly “redesigned, reinvented, re-everything.. LOL. Here’s the video of their new thing. Microsoft here, microsoft there.. blablabla. Oh yea, did I hear the word, iPhone? =P
Among the new features are :
Badges
Show your affiliation with an organization or social cause and have this show up next to your name when it fans out to your friends.
Games
More games in Messenger let you play with your friends, earn achievements and brag about your wins.
Video message
When your friends are offline, leave them a video message, similar to a voicemail but as a quick video that will be waiting for them when they sign in.
Integration of Bing results
Integration of Bing search results makes it easier to add photos and videos from across the web without having to leave the conversation window.
High-definition video chat
Meaningful conversations are enhanced by allowing you to see and hear your friends. The new Messenger now provides high-definition video chat, helping you experience video chats so you can share photos while chatting and see your friends’ reactions in real time and in full screen.
Tabbed conversations
You can manage all your chats in one location so you can juggle multiple conversations in one place rather than having multiple windows popping up.
and many more..
About the High Definition Videocall, we can’t even get smooth videocalls on standard definition here in Malaysia and now HD, oh you have to be joking..
Anyway, there are plenty of “beta” versions up on megaupload/rapidshare if you wanna check it out but I’ll just wait for the official release from Microsoft. We’ll see then whether I’ll have to put my status on “Appear Offline” more often, or rather not.
I woke up just morning to find my phone dead. It was still on before I went to bed but looks like it was lazy and went to sleep too. Or rather not. It was spending the whole night SEARCHING for DiGi’s EDGE signal and *probably* after a couple of hours, it got tired then decided to stop searching and take a nap. (it saves battery too).
A quick bootup on the phone shows that there is no service available so ZOMG what’s wrong with the phone. Enabled HSDPA and it worked! . SCEW DIGI SCEW DIGI!! My battery was at ~70% before I went to bed!
Fired up my Firefox web browser and loaded the DiGi customer support and here it is..
(10:32:29 am) DiGi CS: Hi, welcome to D’Chat. My Name is NORTISHA. How may I assist you?
(10:32:51 am) Anonymous: Hello what is wrong with the digi line? I wasn’t able to get any signal without 3G connection since last night
(10:33:00 am) Anonymous: now i have to enable 3g on my phone to get the signal
(10:33:02 am) Anonymous: EDGE does not work
(10:33:40 am) DiGi CS: We apologize for the unplanned outage. Rest assured that we do our best to get it resolved immediately if it happens again
(10:34:11 am) Anonymous: this outage is throughout Malaysia?
(10:36:32 am) DiGi CS: It’s intermittent
(10:36:45 am) DiGi CS: Almost all part of Malaysia
(10:37:00 am) Anonymous: alright
(10:37:08 am) Anonymous: so phones without 3g would be disrupted?
(10:38:06 am) DiGi CS: Yes apparently
(10:38:31 am) Anonymous: alright that is so cool.
So there you have it! Cellphones without 3G shall not work today on DiGi’s fu*ked up network.
Look at her car. Everyday parked at dangerous locations like those corners blabla.. So Reng Kwan and I became the MPSJ for the day and issued her a “summon” for parking illegally.
Only a fine of RM80 though.
Snapped a photo of it and MMS-ed it to Sheryn asking her to show it to Phaik Joo. Although I did not get to see her reaction, I heard that it was awesome and I even got 3 calls from Phaik Joo blabing to me about this. You should have recorded a video lah Sheryn.
Phaik Joo only viewed the MMS after her exam though, if not I believe there would be even more calls coming to my phone. AHHAHAH.
ZAGG is popular for its line of invisibleSHIELD and many other items which came after that. Although there are many.. yes many many other gadget protecting skins out there which are of the same quality and CHEAPER, here’s a discount coupon/voucher/code for you if you insist on getting one. Discount code is valid till 31st April 2010.
They gave me this code and I’ve nothing to buy from them, so I’ll just pass it on then =).
The discount code is valid for a 20% discount store wide : p8b1w4n
I’m currently looking for a cheap but good skin to replace my worn-out Sansa’s protector though
