අවාසනාවට ඇත්ත කතාවක්...
If you are not among the 100,000 lucky invitees hope you will be able to get a little bit insight from the review.
Those who are willing to get into wave you can request from Google wave and keep your finger crossed.
First Impression
As the first impression the Google wave looks like yet another email program with a navigation pane, massage panel, contacts panel and the message display panel.
When you log into Google wave for the first time, you get bit confused on what to do. But luckily Google has a nice introduction video.
After few tries I found few cool features in Wave.
Real-time Updating tool
In Google wave, you and your colleagues can update documents at the same time. The feature is amazing that you can actually see the text being edited from the other end.
Wave editor
All the messages are called ‘waves’. wave editor has all the features needed to edit text successfully. There are several features already in the toolbar
Yes/No/Maybe Gadget
MSN Maps
More Gadgets to come soon.
Invitations
Google tries to increase the demand by limiting the number of invitations. I remember their launch of “GMAIL”. Google only provides 8 invitations to the users. That also only to the account where Google invites.
Sadly there are no invitations for those people who are invited by some other Google wave user.
I am yet to investigate more features and will update all of you accordingly.
Happy (Google) Waving…. :)

SMS delivery notification is an annoying thing that Windows
mobile did not get rid of even after their latest version 6.5. You have to
manually delete them all the time…
Here is the solution.
This is a simple small program,
- Erase, so called: delivery report automatically after the selected time.
- Set the time, when it will erase reports, after the last report
- Announce the delivery notification with a special sound, at your will
- Don't need look on screen, and turn the backlight on, because you hear the notification
- The program runs in Background
YOU HAVE TO make a soft-reset of your mobile device, after installation is finished.
Tested in My Samsung OMNIA under windows mobile 6.5. Works like a charm

Information about drugs
This section outlines examples of various drugs, their street names, symptoms of use and some of the potential consequences of using them.
People can become addicted to illicit drugs. This can include having trouble controlling their use of drugs and still using them even when they realise it is causing them problems. Drugs can become central to a person’s life and can affect their personal relationships, ability to study and work, mental health and quality of life. People can also become physically dependent on some illicit drugs. This means that they will experience physical symptoms (withdrawal) when they try to stop using them.
People can also develop a tolerance to drugs—this is when a person needs to use more of the drug to get the same effect.

Amphetamine-type stimulants
Amphetamine-type stimulants are synthetic drugs which means they are made by combining various chemical ingredients rather than occurring naturally.Amphetamines are a family of drugs that include methamphetamine. These drugs are similar in their chemical make-up and affect the messages going to the body’s central nervous system. Currently, methamphetamines are more common in Australia than other amphetamines. These types of drugs are sold in different forms such as powder, paste, liquid, pills and crystals. The potency of these forms varies, with the most potent being the crystalline form, and typically referred to as ice or crystal.
Ecstasy is also an amphetamine-type stimulant because it has a chemical structure that is similar to amphetamines. The effects of ecstasy are different to amphetamines and users may experience effects more typically found in hallucinogenic substances.

Speed, base and ice are currently the most common street names for these types of drugs. They share the same symptoms and potential consequences but can differ in severity.Ice
