On a post from Leo Soto, he explains how to setup Gmail under Firefox with fixed with fonts or monospaced fonts. I’ve extended that trick to allow the same behaviour under many Google products. I’m currently using it to display fixed with fonts in Gmail and Google Groups, for both on the message body and text editor.

I’ll never give you recipes… you always must think.

Working with Web Services is not an easy task. We must know about XML, WSDL and some other technologies and also the framework that we are using. In this article I will try to demonstrate how easy is the task of sending objects through Web Services.
