What do WhatsApp check marks mean?

What do check marks in WhatsApp mean?

Until this point, it was actually really simple to understand: one tick meant your message had reached WhatsApp's server and two checks meant it had successfully been delivered to the recipient's phone. That's where the confusion arises though, the message has been delivered but not necessarily read: like a letter in your mail box, it's at its destination but it could sit there unread for days. But, you may ask, what's up with the WhatsApp blue check marks?



What do blue check marks in WhatsApp mean?

As of November 5th, WhatsApp added a "messages read" notification to WhatsApp, much like Facebook Messenger, to show when users have read messages. Now, the two grey ticks will turn blue when a recipient reads a sent message / opens the conversation window. In group conversations, the blue checks will only be shown when everybody in the conversation has seen the message.
If you send voice messages with WhatsApp then you may have noticed that there's some color changes going on there also: from green to blue and from gray to blue. So what does that mean? When you send a short voice message with WhatsApp the message will show up in your conversation with one gray check mark when it hits WhatsApp's server and two gray check marks when it reaches your friend's phone. When they actually listen to it the check marks will turn blue.
When your friend sends you a short voice message they will see the same thing as above, but on your phone you'll see a green microphone icon in the corner of your friend's profile picture. This lets you know you have a voice message and that it hasn't been listened to yet. When you play the message your microphone icon will turn blue and on their phone the two check marks will turn blue too.

Is the read messages feature a good thing or a scary thing?

Facebook already indulges our cyber stalking by letting us know when our messages have been read, but considering the seriously bizarre amount of importance some people place on the ''Last Seen'' time stamp, the WhatsApp blue tick for read messages could usher in a whole new era of online paranoia.

Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion ISO Untouched OS download

Description I noticed that there are no complete and untouched Mountain Lion ISO images uploaded on any torrent sites. The only one available had its boot sector stripped so it could fit onto a 4.7 gb dvd. Therefore it is not bootable or very hard to boot! So here is a untouched copy of Mountain Lion in the ISO format. It will require a dual layer dvd to burn!  This iso was made by opening the golden master "InstallESD.dmg" in disk utility and converting it to a cd/dvd master. Macs use the extension ".cdr" for raw image files so I then changed it to ".iso". Now it is completely compatible to be burned with any iso image burner available! To burn on a mac in disk utility simply change the extension back to ".cdr".
