Bill Gates Off to Antarctica
Well, according to his twitter account’s status, he is
“Off to Antarctica, will try to send notes. Another cool TED video is up- Bing map demo http://bit.ly/av5SpI – Blaise does very well…”
What exactly for though, What is he doing in Antarctica? He doesn’t mention that but it seems its the same time of year he went on a cruise with Paul Allen in 2007, made headlines then.

How to turn off Google Buzz
Update: Seeing the strong reaction by its users, Google has made it more privacy friendly now, when you click Turn Off Google Buzz in the footer or Google Options, you will be given choice of taking all your public profile listings off line as well and then disable it.
Thanks for being so generous Google as to enable Buzz on my Gmail account without asking me first and thanks for the great feature :sarcasm: “Automatically follow the people you email and chat with the most in Gmail.” which will sound better if it reads “Automatic invasion of privacy”. I thought Facebook was pretty bad privacy wise but Google Buzz has topped it, as soon as I clicked Buzz in my Inbox today, to see whats it about, I find out I am already ‘registered’ for it and not only that, I am following people and I am being followed and there was no sort of notification about this, no kind of permission needed… it just did. So I’m bidding farewell to Google Buzz, I don’t need it. Here’s how I turned off Google Buzz.
Step-1: Don’t just scroll down to your Inbox and click “Turn off Buzz” because if you have made your profile, updated your status and buzzed around, those will not vanish but remain public to your followers. So the first thing you should do is delete all the buzzes and status updates you made. Luckily, I did not make my profile.
Step-2: When you click Buzz, you will see your Profile image and text box for buzzing i.e. sharing, above that you should see a link to your followers, click that and unfollow everyone then block.
Step-3: Now you are safe, scroll down in Gmail and click “turn off Buzz”.
