The Google Effect

Today I came across this "new Feature" of Gmail, and its goes...

G is for growth
Storage is an important part of email, but that doesn't mean you should have to worry about it. To celebrate our one-year birthday, we're giving everyone one more gigabyte. But why stop the party there? Our plan is to continue growing your storage beyond 2GBs by giving you more space as we are able. We know that email will only become more important in people's lives, and we want Gmail to keep up with our users and their needs. From Gmail, you can expect more.

Amazing isn't it? by the way, its Gmail's birthday today. Happy Birthday Gmail!

On another note, I saw this neat Flash movie about how Google will conquer the world and make us idiots. I saw this just a couple of days ago, and I hope I'm not the last person in this world to see it. Anyway, here's the short flick entitled EPIC 2014. (WARNING - high speed broadband is a good thing) What's EPIC you ask? Just watch it. (note: maybe its me but it was cool)

Snaps [testing...]

Nothing. I was just testing my photoblogging template. Nice, huh?

Simple photoblogging

Hey did you know that you can make a photo album of sorts using Blogger and Hello (software from Picasa) which automates everything from uploading to a picture to publishing it to your photoblog-album?

I don't know if this is a novel idea but I started playing around with it until I made a template to make things really simple. It uses div tags to create floating boxes with a nifty mouseover effect. Anyway, here's a tutorial and the code.

First Project

Here's what I'm talking about. I'm not sure if it looks really nice but I'm satisfied, after all, it is my first try.

Project Greycore

This is the actual layout of my latest project. I think I'll have to change some things though but mostly it will stay white and grey.

Don't ask why its called "Project Greycore", because I also don't know. Actually its one of those things that pop into your head when you're trying to sleep. I also think it sounds cool. Well, the first design proposal of Project Greycore is a mecha-inspired design theme, and that was supposedly the layout, but I changed my mind. I'll try to post it because I also think its cool. It;s the first time I've done anything like that since I'm more of the minimalist type.
