What is it?

This was a poster put up in 1978 explaining something. Who put it up and what is being explained?
If it’s there and you can see it—it’s real
If it’s not there and you can see it—it’s virtual
If it’s there and you can’t see it—it’s transparent
If it’s not there and you can’t see it-you erased it!

What is being talked about?

PS: Googling will give you the answer but not the satisfaction!!



Nikhil Bhaiya,ayesha and interstellaroverdrive hits the BINGO.Its the IBM poster talking about the properties of RAM.

Soap mail?

These images of Gmail-branded soap have been circulating around over the past couple of months and eventually ended up on a Wired Blog along with many others. They have been dismissed as either a clever Photoshop job or an art project.


Put Fundae!


Good try by Nikhil bhaiya.
Sijut,ayesha and interstellaroverdrive takes away the honours! The soap apparently was an actual campaign done to promote Gmail's spam filtering might to Russian students. The connection is the Russian wordplay on the soundalike slang for email and soap. The copy on package reads: "Gmail: the cleanest soap".
