Free Official Orkut Themes For Download

I’m back with another wave of the most popular post of this blog, download free orkut themes! Unlike the previous posts (1, 2), this time I’ll post themes that were officially released by Orkut, but since they were only for Indian users, others couldn’t taste them. If you are a non-Indian and would like to try out what official themes look like, download the themes from below and use them.

The previous ones have become quite boring now, and I was getting mails to add some more. So here are the 10 themes that Orkut recently added for Indian users, but first, make sure you meet all the requirements. :)

A treat of 10 official Orkut themes for all my readers.

Google Saree By Indian Designer, Satya Paul

Saree, is a traditional desi attire, usually found in India, Pakistan etc. Satya Paul, has designed a Saree which features a Google logo (atually it’s Ooogle, maybe to prevent any trademark issues with Google) and some search results. God knows, what search term he used for the print (I can only spot the word Art). He adopted this strategy to promote his product because by incorporating a big brand name, he can easily market his product for free.

Anyone planning to gift this to their girlfriends?

Yahoo AU: New Home Page Unveiled

Yahoo is still silent on the exec. departures even with their stock price going down day by day. They haven’t spoke a word about it anywhere. Today, TechCrunch reported about a new Yahoo home page being unveiled at Yahoo Australia. A new Yahoo logo was also spotted in the wild previously, but there were no expectations for a new home page design. You can take the tour of the beta design here. It’s still in beta, so you can expect some changes while the final design releases.

The page is still cluttered, but well-arranged this time. One thing I don’t get is what does that Yahoo!7 logo mean? Do let me know what you think of this new home for Yahoo.

Glow In The Dark Xbox 360

XCM has developed a replacement shell for Xbox 360, which actually glow green when lights go out. This new shell replaces your entire exterior of Xbox 360 to produce a creepy-ish green-glowing effect in a dark room. And as this shell is partially transparent, you can even see what’s inside your Xbox 360 (screenshots below).

This XCM Pearl Glow Case for Xbox 360 will soon be available at ExtremeMods for everyone to get their hands on it.

Test Websites For Compatibility Using IETester

all developers wish they could install multiple versions of Internet Explorer as every version is different from the other, and it’s real pain for developers to code and test their websites in every version of IE. There are many users of use IE6 as their primary browser, and since Vista gets IE7, it again renders websites differently than IE6. To top it all, we now have IE8, which again renders websites differently than any prior versions.

Some web services like Browsershots have been very useful to test websites in various version of different web-browsers. Recently, the release of IETester will make things much easier now. IETester is a free web-browser that allow you to have the rendering and javascript engines of IE8 beta 1, IE7, IE 6 and IE5.5 on Vista and XP, as well as the installed IE in the same process. Now you can test websites in various versions of IE, all at the same time in different tabs side by side.

IETester is still in alpha stage, and with comes many limitations. You can read them below as listed by the developer.

• When resizing, the content may disappear. (Will be fixed in the next version)
• The Previous/Next buttons are not working properly
• Focus is not working properly
• Java applets are not working
• Flash is not working on IE6 instance

Just woke up now, and to my surprise got the first news of the day delivered to me by Sandip, of BlogsDNA. RapidShare is one of the biggest file hosters around the world offering storage capacity of several petabytes (a petabyte is a million gigabytes) and an internet connection that transfers hundreds of gigabytes simultaneously. Yesterday, they had a design change which is more simple, faster and easier in usability.

A big project like this aways involves errors slipping in. That’s why we need your help! Did we miss something? Did you experience a bug regarding user guidance or programming? Tell us about it! The sender of the first mail we receive reporting a particular bug will be rewarded with 1.000 RapidPoints, accredited to his or her account.

Download Windows 7 Theme for XP

Windows 7 is the next upcoming OS from Microsoft. And for some reason, they are not letting out much details about this OS. So I don’t think we’ll be able to get our hands on it any time soon. But what if we get to enjoy its look and feel on Windows XP and Vista, eh? Since not much is known about the OS, this theme looks more like Windows Vista, but its nice to see some refreshing changes to the same old look.

Before you jump to the Windows 7 theme for XP, Windows Vista users might also like to check out Windows 7 theme for Vista that I had posted later.
