Still room for new e-mail service provider?

I was in a notion that it's almost impossible for a new email service provider to get an edge in the e-mail service providing sector, where big players like Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, Lycos are already dominated. But I knew that a well coordinated and planned advertising can make anything possible.

World's smallest email id service provider in.com is an example for this exception. In.com was venture made by TV18 group that hit the mail service industry, to make their presence felt. And they succeeded in their mission. Within a short span, after their launch they are able to gather more than 3 million users. It became a success, as the internet users are increasing day by day across the globe and many are interested to have more than one email account also.

So if there is a support of proper advertising, we can witness many more IN.com like services in future.

Help yourself to fight SPAM and fraud Mails

In spite of great spam filters running behind the mail service providers, spammers are succeeding new and INNOVATIVE methods to spread spam mails. Some spammers make use of resembling word arts to canvas their products and to steal personal information from users. Some even fake the email ids of big internet players to send spam and fraud mails.

I do receive hundreds of spam mails per day, but thanks to GMail Spam filter, which is very intelligent to cut the line between actual mails and spam mails. There are few tips that can help you fight spam and fraud mails.

As soon as you get mail that claims to be sent by big internet or business players, like lottery and casino stuffs, which you cannot believe or even any other mail asking you to reveal your personal and financial details, try inspecting the from mail address and reply-to address of the received email. You could see a claim to be genuine from address, but most of the cases the reply-to address would be fake and does not match with that of from address. Once you understood that the mail you received is a spam, then report it to your mail service provider by clicking "Report Spam" button (in GMail) and similar buttons in the inbox of other mail service providers.

Another tip is to login to your mail account more frequently, at least once per day, so that the spam filtering engine can properly execute the filter through your mails. Also never reveal your email address in any of the forums or groups, unless it is absolutely necessary.

Free Remote Access, Sync your PC and Internet enabled Devices with Live Mesh

Most of the Windows users in Offices are well aware of Microsoft Remote Desktop connection, which was prominent from Windows XP onwards. Now Microsoft has extended the Remote Desktop connection to further realms, not just to your PC. It can support other internet enabled devices like, Notebooks, Mobile Phones, PDA's etc. No wonder, the gadgets are getting the power of computer along with network connectivity!!!.

The live mesh from Microsoft is such an initiative that would help people to share and sync their folders, not only to PC's connected across the internet but also to internet enabled wireless devices. Microsoft gave a Live touch to its Remote Desktop Connection with new add-on features like, syncing with internet enabled wireless devices, copy and paste files to and from remote systems, notifications about changes in your Mesh, and a live Desktop.

In fact, Microsoft has made an edge in giving a Web OS version of Windows free of cost with 5GB of space. I feel that, the feature of Live Mesh, to connect and share with PCs across internet will challenge the logmein services.

Give your PC and internet enabled devices the power of Live Mesh.

Video Chat within Web Browser: Now have it in your GMail

After a long wait, Google launched its video and audio chat facility within the web browser. Only requirement is that, you have to download and install the video chat gmail-videochat plug-in. Once you are done with installation, just restart your web browser to experience the video chat within your GMail inbox. The GMail video chat works well in all the prominent web browers like IE, Firefox, Opera, Safari and Chrome. You doesn't have to install any separate plug-in for each browser.

Well, the GMail video chat offers a high quality video and audio experience at free of cost. In fact, this facility would help to improve the productivity of most of the business activities. More over, its being a free service the cost incurred in video conferencing can also be reduced. I think Google launched the video chat in the right hour, where people are running for cost cutting approaches in their business. And another boon would be, ban lift of GMail in offices and work places, thus making GMail and its video chat unofficially an official medium for communication at work place.

But ,all this happenings are around GMail web chat only, and not with our GTalk. If we make a closer look at Google's strategies, its evident that desktop centric softwares are not so prominent in Google business strategies, rather they would like to have everything under their server hood. Or, I doubt whether Google differentiates applications whether they are on desktop or in web. In the Google sense the gap between desktop and web applications are almost zero.

I feel, GMail chat would be the countable gift from Google to it users as a part of their 10th anniversary celebrations.
