Inspiration of CuttingEdge Technology

Mozilla launched a beta of Firefox, it is a developer preview of the features and functions promised in the third major release of the popular open-source browser. Firefox 3 Beta 1 is available for testing so Mozilla can gain feedback before the software advances to the next stage in the release process. Mozilla's Firefox 3 is based on the new Gecko 1.9 platform, which includes nearly two million lines of code changes designed to fix some 11,000 issues and offer Firefox 3 add-on developers a lot to work with. "Much of the work leading up to this first beta has been around developing the infrastructure to support a bunch of exciting new features," Mozilla noted. "With this first beta, you'll get a taste of what's coming in Firefox 3, but there's still more to come, and much of what you'll see is still a bit rough around the edges." This means Firefox add-ons will not work properly with the beta version. Those add-ons include applications such as a...

Intel and others plan to release a new version of Universal Serial Bus technology in the first half of 2008; it will make data transfer rates more than 10 times as fast by adding fiber-optic links alongside the traditional copper wires. Intel is working fellow USB 3.0 Promoters Group members Microsoft, Hewlett-Packard, Texas Instruments, NEC and NXP Semiconductors to release the USB 3.0 specification in the first half of 2008. There'll be a one- to two-year lag between the release of the specification and the availability of the technology, so USB 3.0 products should likely arrive in 2009 or 2010. The current USB 2.0 version has a top data-transfer rate of 480 megabits per second, so a tenfold increase would be 4.8 gigabits per second. Many devices don't need that much capacity, but some can use more, including hard drives, flash card readers and optical drives such as DVD, Blu-ray and HD DVD. The fastest flash card readers today use IEEE 1394 "FireWire" connecti...

Sending a large file across Internet is a problem that I have faced. I went to a site called SendThisFile.com it looks nice. There are some resents for that. First one "it's free". Second is there are no limit on file size even for the free accounts. Let me say how it works. First you have to visit the site and sign-up free account and then you can upload any file (I have tested only few types). Then you receive a link to download the file. So you can share the link with anybody. The problem is they delete your files after 3 days from their servers.(only for free accounts) In March of this year someone sent me a large file using YouSendIt. While the service was free, it required me, as the recipient, to register with an email address before I could download the file. I get a lot of SPAM, so I hate to give out my email address. SendThisFile does not require the recipient to have an account. I've used Box.net and been frustrated by their 10 meg...

A new operating system based on Ubuntu 7.10 and Enlightenment 17 has come out. One of my friends has downloaded it and installed on a VPC. (But still it seems some problems) Anyway it seems nice and looks like an Apple machine. They provide some basic day to day facilities on that. And it supports Google a lot and Wikipedia also. Here the article on wiki about it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GOS_(Linux_distribution) And also you can download its free on http://www.thinkgos.com Still it does not provide some advance stuff like development tools but I hope sooner they'll. (Currently they have what home users use most) And also there is an operating system as Goobuntu which Google uses internally. If you interested on Goobuntu then go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goobuntu

I know that I was unable to write a posting for a long time. It was because of the tight schedules of the project and I had to ramp up on completely new technologies for me. And also I had to do some R&D on the new project I have assigned. I have found a new web browser that opens its tabs in a 3d manner. And when I do search on Google for web or images then the results opens in new tabs. This seems like aero effect on windows vista but it works on XP also. (I think it works even on 2000) Here is the URL of the site and it is still on Beta testing and you can download it free http://www.spacetime.com . I have downloaded the browser but it seems like using the IE engine. But anyway it looks nice but I couldn't find a good reason to use it other than the beauty of it. But it gives a lot of working space & takes some time to start. In here I have searched on web and it displays the results.
