Are you working abroad?
You have commitments/debts back home. So, always looking for the best time to send the hard earned money home? 
Neither want to miss out when the conversion rate is high, nor convert when its too low?

Well, if your answer is "Yes" to one or more questions above, then www.xe.com is the site for you.

At XE,
1. You can see the latest international rates for almost all major currency.

2. Convert a given amount from one currency to another.

3. Book mark your favourite conversions , 
for example I've bookmarked the conversion of Dhirhams to Rupee and added it to my  favourites in the IE, so that I can check the rates in one click. http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert.
cgi?Amount=1.00&From=AED&am
p;To=INR

4.Monitor a currency. This will open up a auto refreshing window, similar to that of cricinfo scoreboard, showing the latest conversion rate.

5. Get currency rates by email.

6. Get to know the historical rates and the graphical representation for the same.

7. Put up the currency convertor tool in your web page and so on.

Xe.com is now an indispensable part of my online activity. Hope this info is useful to you.   

Good morning folks,

Read this in continuation to Shrinidhi's diary post today ( http://www.mouthshut.com/diary
/readpost.php?postid=267 ) about the messages sent with MS Gifts getting truncated.

I just happened to identify another bug in MS. If you edit the photo in the My photos area, for example if I use the edit option and upload a different picture in the place of the old picture, (say i replace my first picture, the home sweet home one, with something else), it will still have the old comments and ratings of the old photo, leaving them to look weird, especially alok's comments...lolz... :-)

Give me your thoughts too..

Last week I bought my first laptop. Its a HP DV2000 series one. Thanks to DSF (Dubai Shopping festival) and Shrinidhi (enidhi) for his review on laptops (http://www.mouthshut.com/revi

-132428-1.html) which made me to freeze my choice on HP.So far it looks like a very good choice, except for its battery. Anyways Im planning to write a detailed review on that, after using it for some time. But at the moment, Im very excited about it.

This new look of MS is very pleasing and is a welcome change.
