I Just figured it out!!!
Although it was launched 2 months back but I always thought it is based on invitation basis and only for selected silicon valley’s Geeks, but today I figured out that everybody can use it, the only catch is that for the time being it is bundled with Google product only (Google Chrome/Feedburner/Google Toolbar)
I don’t use Google toolbar as it is only available for Internet Explorer and Firefox. So for me best way to use Google URL Shortener is to use it with Chrome.
For that you need Google Chrome and Chrome Extensions, Once you install Chrome extension for Google URL Shortener, you can create Goo.gl short URLs with a simple click.

[Update : 20.02.2010] : Use Google’s URL Shortener in any Browser

Finally gmail arrived with an option to insert your image inside your main mail body before that I got to do that with Outlook express or incredimail.
Well, it’s about time. You no longer have to use workarounds to put images into your messages or attach images when you really want to inline them. Just turn on “Inserting images” from the Labs tab under Settings, and you’ll see a new toolbar icon like this:

Make sure you’re in rich formatting mode, or it won’t show up. Click the little image icon, and you can insert images in two ways: by uploading image files from your computer or providing image URLs.

Just now I was searching something on Google, as I typed the keywords and enter, I found all results tagged with This site may harm your computer.

1st thought almighty Google saved me, but again when I searched something else the result was tagged with the same warning then I searched Google, guess what …. then I thought may be Google chrome has got some problem so I tried in Firefox but it was all same.

SEO is a big decision that can potentially improve your site and save time, but you can also risk damage to your site and reputation. Make sure to research the potential advantages as well as the damage that an irresponsible SEO can do to your site. - Search Engine Optimization (SEO).

Google has an Official Search Engine Optimization Starter Guide published on 13th Nov 2008 which answers basic things about the SEO as Brandon Falls (of Search Quality Team, Google) says-
There are lots of possible answers to this question, and a wealth of search engine optimization information on the web, so much that it can be intimidating for newer webmasters or those unfamiliar with the topic. We thought it’d be useful to create a compact guide that lists some best practices that teams within Google and external webmasters alike can follow that could improve their sites’ crawlability and indexing.
download it as it is very simple and covers all the basic SEO needs of any webmaster.

The new integral themes of Gmail are simply amazing, I’m still trying them and so far all of them are too good, specially the logos and pictures used, some of them are extended versions of Orkut theme like Bus stop theme and Tea house. so far i liked tree and Zoozimps.
“ these photos taken around our office in Zurich, Switzerland, themes have made their way into more than our inboxes — that’s a character from the ninja theme made out of pixel blocks, customized laptop decals, and a giant Zoozimps character on a beam next to my desk - Annie Chan”

Yesterday Google launched Sky in Google Earth.
It allows users to “explore the universe from the comfort of your chair. Zoom in to distant galaxies hundreds of millions of light years away, explore the constellations, see the planets in motion, witness a supernova explosion; it’s like having a giant, virtual telescope at your command — your own personal planetarium! There are 100 million individual stars and 200 million galaxies in Sky just waiting to be discovered”
