For some time now I have had an idea of making my windows dream scene as a communication product but didn't really know how to go about it. I have watched people sitting on the train communicating on their mobile phones. I have sat on buses many times and listened to other people's conversations over their mobile phones, which at times can be very annoying. I have seen people crossing the road holding conversations on their mobile phones and have very often wondered how they have managed to get to the other side of the road without being killed. Nowadays people are communicating all the time by E Mails which can also be sent from mobile phones. People take their Laptop computers with them so they can work while they are travelling and send E Mails. At home you can communicate with people all over the world thanks to the wonderful technology of the internet. We have come a long way since the only way to communicate was by letters sent through the post.

My friend who knows more about windows dream scene than I do has just had a windows dream scene feature with animated backgrounds. Yes, that’s right, animated backgrounds. When he told me I didn't have a clue what he was talking about. He was about to bring me up to date. Apparently, it is now possible with Windows Dream Scene to create animated desktop wallpaper for your Vista PC from any video file on your computer that’s in either mpeg or wmv format. I was keen to find out more. The more he told me about animated backgrounds the more excited I became. What sort of a windows dream scene could I have? Would I be able to have animated desktop wallpaper as a communication product? Instead of just staring at a boring desktop I could bring my desktop to life and transform it into a world of motion and activity without slowing down my computer. My dream was starting to become reality. I read lots of information regarding windows dream scene and animated backgrounds and was really surprised to find out that there are so many different dreams that you are able to have. Each month new dreams are available so you can change your dream as often as you like.

So now when I switch on my computer I have my windows dream scene that has an animated background featuring people communicating by mobile phones and E mailing. I even have a picture of someone sitting at a desk actually writing a letter would you belief. I regularly browse through the other dream scenes which are on offer. These include landscape dreams, science-fiction dreams and a wide variety of other animated desktop backgrounds. For the moment I am happy with the windows dream scene I have on my desktop but I now know that I don't just have to keep the same one, the problem will be trying to decide which one to replace it with when the time comes.
