IE 8 Beta 2 not yet compatible with Google toolbar

I upgraded Internet Explorer (IE) in my computer from IE 7 to IE 8 (Beta 2). Everything working fine, until I tried to install Google toolbar.

Somehow, Google toolbar is not able to be installed with IE8. I use the Bookmarks Tools of Google Toolbar so far in managing my favourite site. Having no other choice, I have to uninstalled it and reinstalled IE 7 …

Until Google Toolbar is officially supported, it is good to wait before upgrading your Internet Explorer - this is what I learned yesterday.

Fasting Driven Inflation

It is nice to meet the people you always work with

My daily job is related to regional support.

Having communication with people around the region through email is one of my usual tasks. However, I always felt that meeting the people I work with face to face at least once is important. After such a face-to-face communication, I will know better about the guy I am talking to through email / telephone so far.

It is time to buy me a better chair @ home

It is time to buy myself a better chair for working @ home.

Always felt back pain after spending about 1 hour on my PC when I worked at home. This is not the case when I was in office.

Web Hosting

Have been experiencing with web hosting for quite a number of years. Due to budget constraint, I have tried most of the free webhosting so far like Geocities, T35, AngelFire, Tripod and so on.

It is very valuable especially you do not have any budget for this. However, as you may know, there are some limitation on these free web hosting services. Most of the free them limit the size of disk space available to users. Some may have force advertisements. There is no free lunch so far
