ICQ4u is called “IMDLC.com” now

I have just received the following email:


the popular ICQ archive and download database has moved. You can find us at www.imdlc.com from now on.

IMDLC is short for Instant Messenger Download Center which means that you will soon be able to find downloads and skins for other IM programs too.

You are invited to join us at IMDLC and contribute by uploading your favorite messenger enhancements.

Regards,
The IMDLC.com Team.

Which is probably a result of the fact that they have lost motivation to keep the newssite up really as according to them most ICQ news are not blog worthy anymore. I am sorry for that and I highly disagree with that opinion.

Well, I guess that’s already it.

New ICQ 6 Build#5391 with new bugs

The ICQ Team released a New ICQ 6 Build#5391 with new bugs like e.g. clear type support is broken so if you have a TFT it will make the text font to look a lot of blocky.

Also Getright 4 gets confused by it and breaks ICQ 6 as it downloads the xtraz locally when IE monitoring and download link catch is enabled.

Blogger in Draft / Blogger Support

When I was about to post a post, I stumbled over the successor of Blogger In Beta Blogger just started; Blogger in Draft and they even had a “tell us your opinion” link on the Blogger Dashboard!

So I took my chance and wrote my opinion about the way they do not care about bugs being reported!

Let’s see whether they will bother to reply with a statement this time

Never give up the hope?

Human spyware?

UPDATE: I was notified that Google shut down its blog search engine of course. There are new ways which you can find out more about this here, e.g.: https://blogging.im/findblogs

According to Blogger Search I am human spyware? 😀

Infact I have just done the following search:

(After I did maybe 3-5 others) and suddenly I have reeived this weird warning:

That’s as fun as the Barracuda Spam Firewall blocking your ordinary inquiry emails sent to companies using this firewall system.

Tired of false positives? I sure am!

New Technorati Widgets / Technorati Support & My Blog

Technorati recently released new widgets

They are supposed to look something like this:

You may notice that the radio button options look weird… Right! It doesn’t work on most browsers. For me, it failed to work correctly in:

Opera 9.21, Firefox X64 2.0.0.1, Internet Explorer 7.
Either it won’t save, the options would saved unticked or the radio button display sucks on me.

On the bright side, emailing to Janice Myint resulted into a 24h reply to both emails I have had sent. A sign of hope for the ever questionable Technorati Support? I don’t know, but seriously, there is not a couple of months passing without Technorati breaking things for me!

I seriously wish they would put more concentration on bug hunting and browser compatibility than constantly add new features and re-do their homepage a thousands of times.

Speaking about this: If my blog’s sidepanel looks defaced to you: I know, Technorati tries to fix this (hopefully), so please don’t send me emails about it.

I also know that some posts of my blog are indexed wrong, but all Technorati had to say about this is “I don’t know” – any further email I sent about this topic has been ignored. Blogger does the same.

It doesn’t solve the customer’s problem, but who cares?

Anyway, if Technorati got the widget working for my blog, I will happier and maybe gain some trust into their service.

Did I ever mention that Yahoo also ignores any email I sent to delicious support?
I will test Mister Wong English soon. If it’s any good, then good bye delicious!

Actually during wrting this line, I have figured out, that the new Technorati widget has only problem on long blog pages, if they cannot fix it, I might trying squeezing it into a borderless table – a workaround that has worked for Technorati problems in past.
