Christmas Special

It's Christmas Day today…
Everybody's happy and gay…
A joyous time of year…
A time for song and cheer …
La… la… la… la… la… la… la…

This year Santa Claus decided to go cyber… instead of individually dropping in on each of the one lakh or so Internet users in Bombay, he's put together a bag of Internet goodies for all of you who've been good surfers over the past year! Just click on each of these goodies to download them!

Winter Wonderlands Screensaver
While we in Bombay had rain in December this year, snow is something we still haven't enjoyed. Well, you can take care of that virtually - the winter wonderlands screensaver displays winter scenery in the midst of a snowstorm. The snow falls in a realistic fashion in accordance with your own specified options to control wind gusts and how heavily the snow falls - in short, you can become the weatherman! As the snow continues to fall, it builds up on the ground, trees, and buildings, slowly piling up as it would in real life.

Santa is Coming Screen Saver
You can bring Santa to your desktop, complete with toys, a festively decorated Christmas tree, and some nice surprises that appear as Santa streams across your monitor in this screensaver.

Tracking Santa
Thanks to technology, you can even track Santa's movements on Christmas Eve, through a view of the entire planet or a satellite view. Set up this program before your kids (or the kid in you) run it, so you can enter customised messages from Santa, then sit back and enjoy the looks of surprise when Santa talks to them personally. Forget the rumours he can't possibly deliver all those presents in the time allotted -- Tracking Santa lets you see just how fast that old dude can move!

Holiday Lights
A small program, this will light up the border of your screen with different Christmas decorations… Quick to download, simple to configure and run, don't miss this one!

DIY Christmas Tree
The Do It Yourself Christmas Tree is a classy program that takes you step by step through the process of putting up and decorating your Christmas tree - arranging the buntings, placing the gifts under the tree, and lighting it all up… it's a lot of fun and much, much easier than the real thing!

Santa's gone all out on the Internet this year - he even logs on at a few different sites in order to keep in touch with some of his admirers, well-wishers, and friends. If you would like to chat with him, you can do that on the Net. Using the popular messaging program, ICQ, you can send him messages and get replies from him when he's online, if you know his ICQ number. Don't tell everyone, but I managed to dig out his ICQ number for you to chat with him - try chatting Santa up at ICQ 4777218 (or page him online now). When you do, remember to tell him that I've done my good deed by giving you his contact ICQ number… Hopefully he'll get me that stereo I asked him for - with that car built around it…

Here's wishing you a Merry Christmas! See you again next year!!!
