| Posted: 23 Sep 2009 04:54 PM PDT Neowin gave some info about Microsoft’s secret new phone ‘Pink’.Gizmodo first posted some pictures of two ‘Pink’ phones which Microsoft hasn’t officially acknowledged yet and they are named as Turtle’ and ‘Pure’, and are going to be produced by Sharp, who will share branding with Microsoft on the devices.Check out the images below for Turtle and Pure.
Turtle looks like a chunky child’s version of a Palm Pre with a ovalish look and egg shaped corners, while Pure seems like a standard slider, and both are clearly plastic, with an overall sense of roundedness, thanks to lots of soft angles and circular keys.The left image of Pure looks like as if N900 is slided open.It’s been reported elsewhere that Pink phones will include Zune services, and have its own app store, making it as close to the Zune phone.This is what Gizmodo has for now, wait till they get some nice info so i can share it too. |
| Google Chrome Frame released for IE Posted: 23 Sep 2009 04:25 PM PDT Chromium Blog releases an early version of Google Chrome Frame, an open source plug-in that brings HTML5 and other open web technologies to Internet Explorer.Now why this suddenly ? The answer to this is to help web developers(I am one too) deliver faster, richer applications like Google Wave. Recent JavaScript performance improvements and the emergence of HTML5 have enabled web applications to do things that could previously only be done by desktop software. Google Wave is a new tool for communication and collaboration on the web,which would give a desktop based browsing ability.It’s hardly a week left for the release.On first login to Google Wave, Internet Explorer 6, 7, and 8 users will see this message:
A few clicks later, the user will be running Google Wave in Internet Explorer, but it will be every bit as fast as in Google Chrome.Google Wave depends on strong JS and DOM rendering performance to provide a desktop-like experience in the browser. HTML5’s offline storage and web workers will enable us to add great features without having to compromise on performance. Taking into consideration that most of the user’s still use Internet Explorer Google Chrome frame was released as the JavaScript performance is many times slower and HTML5 support is still far behind in IE.In the past, the Google Wave team has spent countless hours solely on improving the experience of running Google Wave in Internet Explorer but using Google Chrome Frame instead lets the engineering time in more features for all users, without leaving Internet Explorer users behind. One challenge developers face in using these new technologies is that they are not yet supported by Internet Explorer. Developers can’t afford to ignore IE — most people use some version of IE — so they end up spending lots of time implementing work-arounds or limiting the functionality of their apps. With Google Chrome Frame, developers can now take advantage of the latest open web technologies, even in Internet Explorer. From a faster Javascript engine, to support for current web technologies like HTML5’s offline capabilities and <canvas>, to modern CSS/Layout handling, Google Chrome Frame enables these features within IE with no additional coding or testing for different browser versions.

| Microsoft Security Essentials Final Coming Soon Posted: 23 Sep 2009 03:49 PM PDT
I had blogged about Microsoft Security Essentials Beta and how to get it the next version for it, now the Final version of Microsoft Security Essentials(MSE) would be released pretty soon as per the quote which was sent to the Beta testers of the free one care anti-malware from Microsoft.This is what they had to say,
MSE is going strong and as more and more testers get involved the better for Redmond to stabilize and improve MSE. MSE already has a strong base, with 400,000 testers during the beta release.I am using it on my Windows 7 RTM and i say i am loving it totally. |
