Microsoft .Net Framework logo was changed by Microsoft Corporation recently.

Here are the old and new logos.

• Have you ever imagine, how are your website URL requests travelling to its host server?
• What if you know the travelling path of your network packets?
• Do you want to travel along your network packets?

Exciting! Isn’t?

Recently I came across an interesting online tool which tracks the path of  any URL request path till its destination.

YouGetSignal provides this feature to know about the path of the Internet packets.

youGetSignal says, “The visual trace route tool displays the path Internet packets traverse to reach a specified destination. The tool works by identifying the IP addresses of each hop along the way to the destination network address. The estimated geophysical location of each hop is identified using MaxMind’s GeoIP database. After all of the hops locations’ are identified, the path to the destination is plotted on a Google Map.

Visit YouGetSignal and give any website URL in the Remote Address text box and click on Proxy Trace; you will get the IP packet traverse path.

Are you smarter than a 5 year old kid?

Let’s see; a pre-school test for you.

Which way is the bus below traveling? To the left or to the right?

Look carefully at the picture again before click the answer.

Answer:

90% of the pre-schoolers from UK said, “The bus is traveling to the right”
and
90% of the pre-schoolers from USA said, “The bus is traveling to the left”

When asked, “Can you justify your answer?”, they answered…

Reason:

“Because you can’t see the door to get on to the bus.”

Google never stopped experimenting new things. GMail Labs is an example for this. As part of this Labs feature, recently GMail introduced two new Labs features.

Google Calendar and Google Docs now can be added into the left side bar in GMail.

If you are using Google Calendar for events/anniversary remainders, then it would be definitely useful for you.

Happy experimenting!
