By default Nokia N73 displays six applications on the screen that appears when you are not using the mobile or when you turn on the Nokia N73.

This screen which appears when you are not using the mobile or when you turn on the Nokia N73 is called the Active Standby Screen [Figure No. 1] . And the application menu on it is called Active Standby Menu. These six applications are the shortcuts icons to the application so, its safe to remove them or change them.

The Active Standby Menu acts just like the quick launch menu in computers. To run any of the applications on this Active Standby Menu you could use the Scroll key (joystick) to highlight that application shortcut icon and press joystick.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to change the six application shortcuts:

1. Press the Nokia Menu key on the left,
2. On the Menu screen click on Tools, [Figure No. 2]
3. On the Tools screen click on Settings, [Figure No. 3]
4. On the Settings screen click on Phone, [Figure No. 4]
5. On the Phone settings screen click on Standby mode, [Figure No. 5]
6. On the Standby mode screen click on Active standby apps., [Figure No. 6]
7. Here you can change any of the six application shortcuts. Using Joysticks choose the shortcut you want to change and press it. Now select the application you want to assign to shortcut from the list of given options and press Joystick. [Figure No. 7]
8. All Done! Press the right Selection key (Back) until you see the Active Standby Screen.

Recently we upgraded Goelji.com to WordPress MU 2.7. And, along came some

In WordPressMU 2.7 there is a new admin bar. It has settings so users can see it on the admin panel side if they are logged in, and a wonky bit to switch between blogs that may have a few bugs.

For any reason if you don’t want it then here’s how to disable it.

Go to wp-config.php (you will get it where you installed WordPress MU). Edit it.
Find the following lines in wp-config.php

// Uncomment to disable the site admin bar
//define( ‘NOADMINBAR’, 1 );

In a freshly installed copy of WPMU 2.7, you’ll find these lines in wp-config.php when WPMU is up and running.
In case of upgraded WPMU 2.7, check the config-sample.php and make sure you copy these lines into your existing wp-config file.

The latest feature from Google Labs can be a headache to Microsoft who has dominated the Desktop mail client industry since its existence with their “Microsoft Outlook”.

You can now access your Gmail account even when you are not connected to Internet. With new Gmail Labs feature, Offline Google allows you to access your inbox through your browser and use all of Gmail’s familiar features such as search, labels and conversation threading even without internet access. You need to have Google Gear to use Gmail Offline.

Here is what the Google team has to say about Offline feature:

“Make Gmail go where the Internet doesn’t. Access your inbox through your browser and use Gmail’s familiar features when you’re offline. To get started, enable this lab and then click on the "Offline" link in the upper-right of your inbox.”

To use the Gmail in Offline mode you will have to activate the Offline function from

1. Go to Setting (from top of the page)
2. Click on tab titled “Labs”

To change the default search engine box on the top-right corner of FireFox:

This is how you can change it:

in the address bar of FireFox, type: “about:config”

In the box marked filter, type: “browser.search.defaultenginename”

Double click the value field or right click and choose Modify that value, by in the name of the search engine you wish to have as the default search engine. It must be one that you already have installed and also make sure you type in the name correctly.

Now if you type in “Yahoo”, restart Firefox and when your browser comes back you will see “red Yahoo Logo” and Yahoo as your default search engine box.

Then save that by pressing “Ok”.

Every browser like FireFox or IE does searches on a default search engine set some where in its configuration. Changing this default search engine is a little bit tricky, but not anymore. Deepak, my friend, installed a chat software from RediffBol which also changed the default search engine as Rediff Search but he now wants to change it back to Google [my fav].

This is how you can get it done:

in the address bar of FireFox, type: “about:config”

In the box marked filter, type: “keyword.url”

Double click the value field and modify that value, by pasting:

“http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=”

Then save that by pressing “Ok”.

Now, you can use your address bar just as google search bar. Go nuts, since now you can search by entering the search terms in the address bar and pressing enter. This way you never need to visit www.google.com again!!!
