Like ant and bamboo, what's the diff ?

There is no difference. Continuous Integration requires a Build System to make sure that updates to the codebase build properly. CI is basically a system and method that pulls together other technologies, one of which is build, so that CI can happen.
So instead of ant and bamboo, the question is more like: What's the difference between an apple and a fruit salad? Again, none. One is part of the other. (Assuming you're always gonna have apples in your fruit salad ;-)

A very short overview:
A build system builds the code on demand (ant).
A continuous integration system such as jenkins, builds the system e.g at each source code check in / commit, runs all unit test cases, and reports build or unit test failures, e.g. per email to the developper.
Such a system uses the build system (ant), but uses other systems too, (code coverage tool, etc.)

I have 'fair' experience about VS and TFS environment.
Here is what I have done so far. After I finished the coding work, I built it, checked-in it and other guy deployed it.
So, I don't know what the meaning of 'automated build'..
what is 'automated build'? and how can i make it?
If you can attach some example files, that would be much appreciated it.
Thank you very much
Oh! I am also working on TIBCO automated build, so if you are interested in please have a look via link below!
TIBCO automated build
Look up the concept: Continous Integration.
For your platform, look up: tfs build controller, tfs build agent and msbuild.

We are thinking about using Jenkins as our CI server. I used to use Bamboo in my last company. I don't love it, but it works alright.
Here is my short checklist.
Git
Maven
FishEye
Crucible/Gerrit
Jira
Support of distributed build farm
Single sign-on with LDAP support
Am I missing anything ?
Jenkins supports (either natively or with plugins) Git, Maven, Jira, Gerrit, distributed builds, and LDAP support. I think it supports fisheye as well, but I could tell easily from my configuration. Of those, I've used Maven, distributed builds, and LDAP. At the very least, there is strong community support for Jenkins here, so if you have any issues once you get rolling the chances are your question is either already answered or will be quickly resolved for you.

I am planning to develop a web app which will detect faces in a jpeg image. I will use tomcat for deployment. I want help on how to proceed.
I dont want any code.
Just a flowchart of steps will do. I want to avoid use of third party libraries for face detection. But please list all options.
Any information, algorithm, resource will be greatly helpful.
Thank you..
I would recommend using a 3rd party lib such as OpenCV. You'll want to look at the Haar feature detector. There's some info here http://opencv.willowgarage.com/wiki/FaceDetection and plenty more on the OpenCV mailing list.
There are Java bindings for OpenCV http://code.google.com/p/javacv/ . But it might be easiest to produce a separate command line util that you shell out to in Tomcat.

I am looking for some way to roll back file changes. I have looked at versioning systems such as tortoiseCVS, but I can't seem to get it setup.
If anyone can help me find a great solution to track and roll back file changes on win7 that would be great!

One very easy solution is to use DropBox. It uses SVN under the hood, but you don't have to do anything, or even be aware of that fact. All the files in your dropbox folder are automatically versioned. Now, DropBox also lets you share files, and replicates them to the web, but you don't have to use these features at all.
The main limitation is that the free account is limited to 2 GB.

I need to automate an IM client to update a status every few hours, basically log in, update status, log out. I'm trying to do this with windows scripting, but cannot seem to find the proper hook names to the application. Is there somewhere specific I can look to find this kind of information about an application, or am I merely going about this with the wrong tool in hand?
What IM client are you trying to automate?
Many popular IM services now have their own official API's that you can use to interface with their service programatically rather than having to 'hook' into a client. Third party libraries are also fairly widely available (Google around).
I used the AIM API to write a couple of fairly nifty utilities recently. AOL offers SDK's for several popular platforms including C, Java and C#.
