Google provides integration of Orkut & Gtalk for the following benefits:

• Scrap notifications
• Orkut friends are added to GTalk friends list
• Your GTalk status is shown to your friends on Orkut

Now if Orkut + GTalk integration serve this much of benefits, then why would one want to disable their integration? Reason being that I am always most of the time online on GTalk and don’t use Orkut. I consider it as a time waster. I only use it to get in touch with friends but that is something that I am not into all the time. In such a case if any of my friends scrap me and I am busy in something or the worst case, I missed the notification, my friends think that I am ignoring them. Now thats the reason why I am considering disabling Orkut + GTalk integration.

Do you also find yourself in the same scenario? What you do in such a case? If you know of anything else that can be done in such a case then please share it with me & other readers in the comment.

Since Orkut has implemented album feature, a random image was chosen as the album cover. I was looking for a method to change it and was smiling when I found out that it was right in front of my eyes. I discovered this simple method and thought of sharing it with you all.

Here is how you can Change the Album Cover in Orkut.

• Click on Edit of any image which you would like to choose as your album cover.
• Check the option album cover for selecting this image as your album cover.

You can now see your new album cover live.

Enjoy!

What is the use of changing the drive letter?

You can swap the drive letters for your optical drive. Sometimes you install a program from one optical drive and that program runs when the required media (disk) is inserted into that optical drive only and you wish to run it from a different optical drive. In such a case, its pretty useful.

May be you want to change the drive letter for your convenience. Second partition for holding files, third one for entertainment and so on.
