<p>I am NEVER a fan of <a href="http://www.farmville.com">Farmville</a>&#8230; In fact, based on what I&#8217;ve learned, I&#8217;m going to do everything in my power to avoid playing it&#8230; I know it would eat a lot of my limited time if I get hooked to it, just how <a href="http://twitter.itsanimesh.com">Twitter</a> made me an addict these days&#8230; My <a href="http://www.facebook.com">Facebook</a> life is limited only to posting my thoughts, commenting on my friend’s posts and chatting&#8230;</p>
<p>I find that FarmVille could have been just another stupid Facebook fad&#8230; It would have gone away&#8230; Just like when everyone used to pick their favorite five something or other&#8230; By far FarmVille is the most pointless of all the pointless Facebook applications AND the most visible thing on my home page&#8230;</p>
<p>Its like whenever i log into facebook i recieve a nice message&#8230;. &#8220;<strong>OH NO! MY FRIEND WHO I HAVEN’T SPOKEN TO IN YEARS JUST FOUND A LOST BLACK SHEEP ON THEIR FARM!!!</strong>&#8221; Now I remember why I haven’t spoken to you in years. <img src='http://itsanimesh.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  OR &#8220;&#8221;<strong>YOUR FRIEND HAS BEEN PROMOTED TO PROFESSIONAL PLOWER STATUS!!!</strong>&#8221; (um, congratulations???</p>
<p>I never realized that farming is so attractive to people&#8230; If they can only channel their Farmville addiction to actually working in the farms to produce agricultural products, then we would be assured of food sufficiency&#8230; Our country is facing a food crisis and Agriculture sector is now on a decline&#8230; So guys grow up instead of becoming virtual agriculturists&#8230; <img src='http://itsanimesh.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>BTW guys got a great business idea&#8230;&#8230; Lets open a Rehab Centre for those addicted to Farmville&#8230; <img src='http://itsanimesh.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  <img src='http://itsanimesh.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1717" title="RIP IE6!!!" src="http://itsanimesh.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/RIP_IE6.png" alt="RIP IE6!!!" width="323" height="409" />I</em><em>nternet Explorer 6</em> is an extremely outdated browser, and it is holding the Internet community back from continuing its perception of new shininess&#8230; It is also causing a huge headache for webmasters, who must go out of their way to accommodate the browser for their sites&#8230; First launched in 2001 Internet Explorer 6 is still being used by 15 &#8211; 25 percent of Internet users&#8230; So what then is being done about this? The Internet community is rallying behind a campaign to &#8220;<em>kill IE6</em>&#8221; and their ranks are growing&#8230;</p>
<p>I found this nice site… <a href="http://ripie6.com/">http://ripie6.com/</a></p>
<p>RIPIE6 is the obituary notice of Internet Explorer 6’s death. It’s a message for all users who still use that “browser”. RIPIE6 is designed exactly for those old-fashioned people who don’t see the point of updating their software.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Alright, today at last Microsoft CEO Steve Balmer unveiled their newest Windows Mobile OS, called “Windows Phone 7 Series”, and launched a <a href="http://www.windowsphone7series.com/" target="_blank">website</a> to show it off at the <a href="http://www.mobileworldcongress.com/index.htm">Mobile World Congress</a>&#8230; I can actually say that I am excited for Microsoft announcing a new mobile OS&#8230; It hasn’t just created another version of Windows Mobile, from the demos it looks like they have completely started from scratch&#8230;<span id="more-1695"></span></p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-1696 alignright" title="Windows Phone 7" src="http://itsanimesh.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/windows-phone-7_1.jpg" alt="Windows Phone 7" width="169" height="334" /></p>
<p>Microsoft has always had trouble with there <strong>User Interface</strong> (UI)&#8230; Gone is the infamous mobile smart menu and instead the main menu is now a grid-like interface, something microsoft is calling “tiles”, which are vertically scrolled and be personalized to be quick launches or separate widgets&#8230; The look of the interface has obviously been completely retooled too&#8230; Gone is the cumbersome navigation, and now it resembles the Zune HD UI, replacing small icons with big, gorgeous icons and grid structures&#8230; Social networking plays a major role in Windows Phone 7, as well&#8230;</p>
<p>The most important note here is that, Microsoft wants more control over phone manufacturers by making the manufacturers make Windows Phone 7 Phones with specific specs&#8230; Also, phone makers cannot use their own interface customizations that we have been seeing more recently (such as HTC’s TouchFlo)&#8230;</p>
<p>Availability is expected to be around the end of 2010 is it an IPhone killer we will see but with the huge install base for the apple IPhone it will be a tough battle&#8230;</p>
<p>Windows posted a walkthrough video, to give potential customers an idea of what to expect:</p>

<p>There is also a pretty good interactive demo up at <a href="http://www.windowsphone7series.com/">the official Windows Phone 7 Series site</a>&#8230;</p>
