Has anyone noticed that you can save only upto 6 (six) pages in your my yahoo account. Each page can have upto 25 RSS feeds. It means you can not read more than 150 feeds! The average number of feeds anyone will like to read is well below that limit. But since different new ways of using RSS feeds are found out (like weather, Google/ebay/amazon searches in RSS, etc.), I wonder if this limit will be a problem in the future!

Imagine watching your favorite TV show in your car, as and when you want, without any commercial breaks or scrolling ads! Precisely same can happen with the contents of the websites with the help of RSS. The website will publish a RSS feed that you can capture and read at your convenience. That is all about RSS!!!

(unfortunately it currently works only in US)
You have the option of expanding or contracting your search by limiting results to within 1 mile, 5 miles etc. of your query location. You may also "Save Location" via a checkbox on the query page.

To remove all hyperlinks from a Word document, select the document with Ctrl+A, then use Ctrl+Shift+F9 to convert the document to text. A quicker way to remove a single hyperlink is to right click on it and select "Remove Hyperlink" from the context menu.
To select a single sentence hold down the Ctrl key and click anywhere in the sentence.
Roll the cursor to the left margin next to the line and when the cursor changes from the usual "I beam" to an arrow pointing to one o'clock, click to select (highlight) the entire line.
To select an entire paragraph, triple click in the paragraph.
To select a word, double click on the word.

GoogleDuel
It's a popularity contest using the Google search engine. Enter two words, names, or phrases, and find out which one occurs on more pages on the web. For example, try cat vs dog. I tried Atal Bihari Vajpayee vs Sonia Gandhi and the result was Atal Bihari Vajpayee (34,200) Sonia Gandhi (27,800)!

If you find yourself consistently manipulating
entire paragraphs at a time, perhaps there's a
quicker way to cut and paste your words in Word.
Position the cursor [I-bar] anywhere in the
paragraph and hold down ALT+SHIFT. Now, use
the Up and Down arrow keys to move that
block of text around within the document.

Good news: the paragraph will never stop in
the middle of another paragraph.
NOTE: hitting the Left and Right arrow keys
will change the style of the selected text.

Google Web search now allows searchers to search for "numerous" non-HTML files, including Corel
documents. Corel documents are not listed as a searchable filetype in Google's advanced search.
However, if you search for filetype:cdr inurl:cdr you will get Corel documents listed, along with links to view them as HTML files. Google apparently also recognizes at least some Microsoft Works files (filetype:wps), Microsoft Write (filetype:wri), Lotus WordPro (filetype:lwp) and SQL files (inurl:sql filetype:sql). Theoretically you can search for ANY filetype using the filetype: syntax; you just won't always be able to read it. (The search inurl:foo filetype:foo , for example, will get you results.)
