I have written about “The Traces Of ICQ” earlier.

Now, thanks to my friend Charles who has pointed it out, there is some hidden gallery of the ICQ Team:

Step 1: Click on the < Main > Button
Step 2: Select < Preferences & Security >
Step 3: Go to the < Status Mode > Tab
Step 4: Put the mouse cursor in the middle of the empty space
Step 5: Hold The Ctrl+Shift Keys and while holding them Click on the Left and Right Mouse Buttons together (Left button first)

So have fun with that easter egg! 😀

You can also find a photo of Udo 😉

So let’s quote him:

It’s not Apple, it’s not Open Source… no, this time, Microsoft’s guns are aimed directly at… Google?!

Thursday at Microsoft’s annual Financial Analyst Meeting in Redmond, Washington, Microsoft Chief Executive Officer Steve Ballmer stepped up his rhetoric against Google and continued to promote Microsoft’s aim to topple the Mountain View, California-based company not only in the search space, but also in Web site advertising dollars for its competing search and Internet services site, MSN.com.

“What do we want? More than anybody else has,” Ballmer said, when asked by an analyst about Microsoft’s goals against Google in these markets. “You might think it’s a funny answer, but if you don’t set the big, bold goal, the big ambition to be number one, you never get to be there.”

After somebody said that ICQ 5 Emoticons are rasistic, there is a new reason for some to uninstall it; The fact that avatars are called “ICQ Devils”! 😀

After a lot of problems with my internet (including that it has been slow at evenings and weekends), the “fun” started with a distribution affiliate of our phone company.

That means they were ringing up my mother telling her that our selected tariff will be no more Call-by-call possible and that the phone will stop working! So, she got forced to switch.

I have searched the internet the day before yesterday, I couldn’t find any sign of this change. So I was calling the number they gave to my mother, I got some guy on the phone that said that all what my mother got told were lies! Yes! They were lying
to get my mother in a “cheaper” tariff!

What would I do without Call-by-call? No longer calls to abroad, no longer cheap phone bills! Imagine that, I would be cut from the phone world! Grr!

So beware what your phone company might tell you! 🙂
