Ok so I uninstalled Chrome while removing everything that remained of it from my computer a few days ago and was presented with a short from, the "why did you remove it, rate Chrome pls" one. I filled it, just because I'm nice like that.
It didn't ask me for any contact info at all, just to tick some boxes. At the very end it said "we will contact you if we'll have any questions" thing and I was like "yeah, right haha".
Today I turn on my Internet Explorer as I do from time to time, because something didn't work on my Opera (a IE only site) and a new pop-up appears with a message from Google and another question, lol.
Yes, a wtf moment.

Welcome to last year. lol
Peep the Dashboard if you haven't yet - google.com/dashboard
Also, I've started pinning tabs on Chrome. It reduces the tab to the size of the favicon, and the pinned tabs are always there when you open your browser unless you unpin and close them. Very cool. I can defo see where Google are going with Chrome OS and web apps.

So some of you may remember i said that last year i was attempting to use Google Wave for a group project, however only 1 person got the invite in time making only 2 out of 6 people able to use it. so that kinda failed.
I shouldve used Google Groups instead. Ive never really used it before, but it was already available and had all the basics, very easy to use. This is what im doing this year.
I just love how i can use the whole range of Google products with one account - very very convenient, and when im away from a computer i will get notification emails from my collaborators. Then when i get back home or to uni i can log onto a PC and work (if needed). I LOVE IT.

I do get sick and tired of sites asking me if I want to connect to Facebook to browse their site. Trying this out now.

To be honest I think that Google is TOO gay. I mean, it's cool that they're a good working environment for minorities and homosexuals but they put too much emphasis on it imho. They funded a gay parade here.
IBM's more subtle way also works and actually amongst IT people they still have a reputation of the best company to work at. At my university Google is the "second" option after IBM and before Microsoft as far as students' preferences go and I think that Google's display of "openness to variations" is a part of why it's not first.
For less tolerant people it's screaming that Google is full of retards, gays and.. minorities.

i have this annoying thing with google chrome going on at the moment. i click the scroll wheel of my mouse in and most times it opens the same link twice (as a duplicated tab).
i shall check other browsers now to see if this is a chome only problem or if its with all browsers.
anyone else had this problem?

Sounds like a bunch of fucking hippies. Instead of treating them as equals, they become royalty.
I just downloaded about 1200 posts between two Waves I've had with a bunch of friends, full of articles and pictures and videos we've shared amongst ourselves the past year or so. Then I found this: Google Wave to Become an Apache Project Next Week | Nerd 5 !
And was wondering, what if Wave still lives on through this Apache company? I liked it. It's not Twitter, but I like it instead of flooding several people's inboxes with stuff.

I have tons of important documents on Wave that I haven't exported yet. We wrote our whole new album using it - different bandmembers contributing lyrics, dropping MP3's of vocal demos into the waves, etc. And of course you can use the playback mode to document the entire creation of the song from start to finish. I'm really hoping the technology remains online. Otherwise I may have to just build my own selfhosted Wave server.
Smacky, you couldn't be more wrong. Google treats everyone as equals. They are the most tolerant tech company and that is a good thing. Discrimination has no place in the tech world. None.
