How To Tag People In Facebook @You

Facebook has rolled out its much awaited new feature of tagging people. Lets just say Twitter is happy with this and just to make it a tad different from them, Facebook has removed the mention of ‘@’ symbol. Otherwise, its all the same.

How To Tag People In Facebook @You

Nokia N97 to be launched on June 2nd

May 18th, 2009

The Nokia N97 is soon going to be launched around june 2nd. 

The June launch is something we’ve been hearing quite often, but the hype surrounding this device has greatly decreased, since all major websites started criticizing the handset’s CPU. We’re dealing with a processor that’s a tad over 400 MHz and doesn’t do multitasking, but otherwise the N97 is quite a decent smartphone, with pretty hot features.

You get to chose between black, white, or red, ThumbTacks is selling for $13.
