Use your GMail as your Online Storage

There are several ways that you can use your GMail account as your Online Storage. Gmail Drive is one of the third party software to make your Gmail as storage.

GMail Drive is not supported by Google. It allows a user to access a virtual drive stored in a Gmail e-mail account by causing the contents of the Gmail account to appear as a new network share on the user's workstation.

After you installed the GMail Drive, you will find a GMail Drive in your windows explorer. Right click on this new drive and choose Login As. Enter your Gmail username and password when prompted. It is recommended that you create a new Gmail account for this purpose so that you can keep your existing Gmail account safe. After logging in, you can now copy, paste and create folders in this new Gmail Drive just like any regular Windows folder.

Besides using GMail Drive, you may also use GSpace Firefox extension to access and utilize the GMail account as online storage.

IPv4 address Exhaustion

Internet Protocol fourth revision ( IPv4 ) exhaustion referring to the decreasing of the available of the allocations for IPv4. This concern was started since 1980s when the Internet started to grow dramatically. There are many actions being taken to resolve and secure the situation, methods like classful network, C.I.D.R. , D.H.C.P. , network address translations (NAT) and these actions have significantly delayed the exhaustion.

The green grass in the picture below shows the available IPv4 ( but I not sure on the updated, the map was actually created some time ago ) :

map_of_the_internet

Let's see the dramatic growth of the IPv4 usage :

In order to resolve this problem, the experts have introduced the Internet Protocol revision 6 and IPv6 has a much larger address space than IPv4. The IPv6 is built up with 128-bits long and segmented into 8 groups of 4 HEX characters. 50% of it represent the Network ID while the other 50% represent the Network Host.

empireTower The experts believe IPv6 will have need a very long time until it is exhausted again! A rough calculation, there are about 350 Trillions Trillions Trillions IP Addresses are available!!! There is someone making the assumption if ONE IPv6 equal to an Atom, then it would takes up more than 1 millions of Empire Tower to represent the entire IPv6 block!! Impressive right?!

 

A Quote from wikipedia :

IPv6 is intended to be the long-term solution to the IPv4 address shortage. Instead of a 32 bit address, with 4.3 billion possible hosts, IPv6 uses 128 bit addresses, providing 3.4×1038 or 50 octillion for each of the roughly 6.5 billion people on Earth.

IM using your mobile

IM, so called Instant Messenger, i.e. MSN, Yahoo! Messenger, Skype, Google Talk etc. is a tool that transform real time communication on text-based form between two(2) or more individual over the IP data network. It has become an important communication tool in our daily life.

Todays mobile phone has been embedded with various form of data communication transport methods like GPRS, GSM 3G, HSPDA, and the most cost saving method --> 802.11b/g WiFi. And I believe the mobile phone which built in with the 802.16e WiMAX chipset will be on the market very soon.

Thus, it also means that you can have your Internet data communication ON with you wherever you are, and full mobility! The most important thing is that with the WiFi network meshed around the cities in the world and WiMAX network which start growing everywhere in the world! And it is FREE or should I call it unlimited usage on a fixed charges.

I prefer another application called Fring. The greatest thing for Fring is it built in many messenger clients like MSN, Skype, Google Talk, ICQ etc and the greatest client is the SIP client.
