After the earlier popular article ‘Yahoo Messenger Tips Tricks Hacks Secrets’. I”m writing about this small application called ‘A-Patch for Yahoo! Messenger’ which when applied can remove the advertisements and open more than one Messenger at a time (polygamy). Also, it doesn’t actually "patch" Yahoo, all it does is add some registry entries which disables the ads and enables multi-messenger for Yahoo Messenger! At the moment it has only been tested with version 8.1.0.421 but it may also work for other 8.x versions of Messenger. Some do say it works for Yahoo messsenger 9 final also. Try it out and let us know.  Download A-Patch for Yahoo Messenger

Have you ever gotten a song in your head, but can’t remember what the name of that song is? Welcome to the Internet Era, very creative and interesting concepts have been evolving and now there are web sites and applications to help you just humming or singing the part of song and find the song name. We’ll check three ways to find song names. Next time when you hear a nice song in party, make sure you can hum it

In Midomi.com, you actually sing or hum the tune of the song you’re thinking of into your computer’s microphone, and Midomi will attempt to match that ditty up with its user contributed database of over two million songs and growing. Goto midomi website

Midomi iPhone is a music search and discovery application for the iPhone that lets users search for music in four different ways. Sing –just sing or hum a few seconds of a song; Say –just say the song or artist name you’re looking for; Type –just type a song or artist name the way it sounds, regardless of spelling; or Grab –just hold your phone to a speaker playing original music for a few seconds. Download from iTunes

WatZatSong is a website that allows you to quickly find the artist and the title of a tune that you have in your head. WatZatSong is free and participatory: it relies on the music knowledge of its members, who can, by naming your tunes, show their talent and climb up the WatZatSong ranking! WatZatSong website

Start by going to the website and create a sample of tune or whatever u remember of it and several members will help you in naming your tune. You will then be notified of their guesses. To confirm that a guess is right, you will be able to listen to a sample of the real version of the song on one of our partners’ websites.

The Shazam music recognition service has existed for many years. More recently shazam has developed phone applications for Symbian, Microsoft, Java and now iPhone. Interestingly enough many people hear of Shazam only because of the success of the iPhone app. Download from iTunes

Open the Shazam App and hold the iPhone to the music, within seconds it’ll return the artist, track and name.

Midomi is available in most of the countries, while Shazam isn’t. Shazam works well, from my point of view better than Midomi up to now. I hope you will enjoy the iPhone version coming soon from WatZatSong.com

Before starting, if you haven’t upgraded iPhone 2g / 3g to firmware 2.1, read this earlier post Apple Firmware 2.1 - Best Complete Guide to Upgrade, Jaibreak, Unlock iPhone , iPod Touch.

As per Apple’s press event last week there are over 12 million iPhones and users have now downloaded over 100 million apps. Well, that was just count of legal apps. It’s not surprising that, this popularity would definitely explore ways to install cracked apps and games on iPhone 2g / 3g.

As a reminder, this is illegal! I do not encourage anyone to hack or crack iPhone games. Some developers spend quite some time working on them and really need the appreciation and encouragement they deserve. Buy it legally through App Store.

There are two types of files you can get for iPhone Apps. The “normal” .app file, and the cracked IPA file. This information is available on Internet public domain, feel free to contact me for any concerns. We’ll discuss different scenarios’ and different ways to install cracked apps.

NOTE: These methods work on iPhone firmware 2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, and 2.1. For all methods you must already have jail broken iPhone and installed openssh.
