Something Weird & Something Interesting

somebody discovered that nobody can create a folderanywhere named as "con". Not only "con" but you can not create folder named as"aux" and "nul". This is something pretty cool...and unbelievable... At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened! Try it out yourself...
******
Create a folder on the desktop and name it "Notepad". Put some files and folder under this folder
Now open any webpage in IE and see its view source. (Right click on the page and select view-source)

Now to something interesting, Altavista had been the most successful search engine, Google entered with a clean welcome page, focus towards search and high speed results. The whole scenario has changed. Now take a look at some of the future possible search engines which can compete with Google.

http://clusty.com/

http://beta.previewseek.com/

http://www.kanoodle.com

All the three are looking promising. Let's see who emerge as winner. Each one of them have their strong points, though clusty & Preview seek almost work in a similar fashion. Previewseek presentation is what makes it different from the current set of search engines. Let us wait for the world to react.
