Hilarious Windows (Vista) Error

via Gizmodo



So let me lay it out for you: Windows Problem Reporting has encountered a problem. Because of this problem, Windows needs to shutdown the service. Ok so far.

But it will also notify you if a solution is available. How can you do that when you are shutting down your notification service?

Reminds me of those movies where a dying man reveals only half the secret he's being killed for.

User Generated Bubble

This video's been doing the rounds recently. Based on Billy Joel's classic "We didn't start the fire", this takes off on the current Web 2.0 trends. Whether or not you agree there is a bubble waiting to burst, this video is fun to watch. I just hope Matt (the creator of the video) doesn't get into legal problems for IPR violation. Enjoy while its still available.




Update: This video has been removed. According to YouTube, "This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by a third party." Told you so ;)

Excel tech writer, where art thou?

Holy macaroni!

Always wanted to use that term, thanks Microsoft and Outlook team for giving me the opportunity :)

You-tubed

Error encountered while uploading a video to youtube

In the light of Umesh's , Sowmya's and other blogs on this topic, the message should have read,

"Duh, did you mean to put that video on the DVD?

Or were you actually trying to upload it to youtube !!!. Hey, that file is too big for us. We like them 100Mb or smaller (thats 1 followed by 8 zeroes).

If you do not know how to take large videos and make them smaller, follow this link.

And please try again. We like folks who try"

Guys, want to suggest some cool messages for this error?

De-Vertigo?

Ok for this sentence (?) to be a blurt by a stunt-sky diver asked by a film director to jump while still at low altitude...


...not an error message in Vista.
