Firefox 3 is coming...

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.

This means Firefox add-ons will not work properly with the beta version. Those add-ons include applications such as a...

gOS ???

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

Here what MCMS manager people have to say >> " In Microsoft Content Management Server (MCMS) after the creation of the sites, to do modification to the postings there were no common way to do so.
