Hate New Facebook Chat: Get Old Back!!!

The biggest issue on facebook since facebbok brought new chat interface is actually the interface of New Facebook Chat. The main problem on it was:

  • It didnt display all of your friends who were online but the list also included some offline friends.
  • The friend's list feature is not available.

But lets better forget the new chat, lets think about Old chat. Its also not too good, it always had a negative response but when New chat came people badly desired the Old one. Obviously its better than New one. So you might want to have the Old Chat Back, follow the following steps if you want to:

  • Install ‘Sidebar Disabler’ for Chrome from here
  • Install ‘Sidebar Disabler’ for Firefox from here
  • Install ‘Sidebar Disabler’ for Opera from here
Refresh/Restart your Browser if you are done with it. You'll get a automatic page like after installing a extensions though.

And what if you are using Internet Explorer. Are you? I say its time to change your browser man! Its crap. Try Chrome(1st) and I bet you'll have a good experience browsing with it, you'll love it.

Use Hidden Theme in Windows 7

Windows 7 South Africa theme

Use hidden international wallpapers and themes

When you first install Windows 7, it asks for your language, time and currency. Based on your responses, it installs a set of wallpapers and themes. If you choose English (United States) for your time and currency format, for example, the available desktop backgrounds and themes will include a United States section with scenery from locations such as Maine, the Southwest and so on.
Hidden, though, are background scenery and themes from other English-speaking countries -- Australia, Canada, Great Britain and South Africa. Normally, you can't access those backgrounds or themes, but there is a simple way you can install and use them:
1. In the search box in the Start menu, type C:\Windows\Globalization\MCT and press Enter. (Note: If Windows 7 is installed in a drive other than C:, use that letter instead.)
2. Windows Explorer will launch and show you a list of subfolders under C:\Windows\Globalization\MCT: MCT-AU, MCT-CA, MCT-GB, MCT-US, and MCT-ZA. Each subfolder has wallpapers for a specific country: AU for Australia, CA for Canada, GB for Great Britain, US for the United States, and ZA for South Africa.
For any of the countries whose wallpaper and themes you want to use, go into its Theme folder, for example, C:\Windows\Globalization\MCT\MCT-ZA\Theme. Double-click the theme you see there (for example ZA).

3. That will install a shortcut to the theme and wallpapers in the Personalization section of Control Panel.
You can now use them as you would any other theme or background, by right-clicking the desktop, choosing Personalize, and choosing a background or theme. They will be listed in their own section.
