Siri workaround for iPhone handsets:developed by hacker 'chpwn'

Apple's iPhone users who were restless for using the company's much publicized virtual personal assistant Siri can hope to do so....hacker 'chpwn' have developed ways for them.He has designed a download (posted its details on his blog ) which installs Siri from Apple itself. The tool ,Spire,will download Siri while it installs.
For those having jailbroken handsets ,this one is a solution...but its not enough.After that's done u are not quite ready to talk to the virtual assistant
 Apple still requires authorization to use Siri, so information from an iPhone 4S is still required. To insert this information, Spire allows you to enter your own proxy server address. “Spire uses a new method to obtain the files necessary for Siri, so it doesn’t have the copyright issues encountered by previous attempts,” the blog post explains. “Similarly, rather than directing all traffic through a specific proxy server (and the associated privacy issues), Spire allows you to specify your own proxy server.”

According to "chpwn," users must access an iPhone 4S' data and proxy to make Siri think it's running on an iPhone 4S.
Just how will you gain access to that information? "Chpwn" won't provide it, but on his site, he suggested a host of options, including buying an iPhone 4S and asking a friend for access to his or her authentication tokens.
iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 owners have been hoping to find a simple way to add Siri to their devices for months now. Unfortunately, there isn't a simple method available, as evidenced by the hoops folks must jump through just to get Spire working properly.

Bye the way Google is reportedly developing its own version a natural language processing enhancement to its Voice Actions application that is code-named "Majel.
We already using the search using voice ...lets see if Majel would prove itself more efficient than Siri.
For those who are in a hurry and couldn't go through all the stuff i have mentioned above ,here is a video.Just see it and get the major points

            

Firefox games platform

A few months back, Google was planning to turn his browser chrome into a gaming platform....they are still planning on this in order to grab the massive chunk of cloud app market share...

Now in this segment, Mozilla has also stepped in and thinking if gaming platform is apt for its browser Firefox.
As we know,Mozilla has launched his app development project which gives guidelines regarding app development and how developers can run them in Firefox.

Its an open project and other browsers can easily adopt it(if they take it seriously).
You may be aware of the Full Screen API, the Mouse Lock API, the Gamepad API, Websockets and WebRT than can be leveraged for online gameplay within the Firefox window.Moreover the browser id can be used to identify players.Its the first time that Mozilla has thought about making a browser,Firefox in this case,into a gaming platform.

However it still lacks gamepad API(although Chrome has such API) and also it is not as popular among gamers as Chrome.It lacks that buzz which currently chrome owns.
We should notice that Mozilla has such gaming ideas and also Firefox has gained HTML5 capabilities...
if they execute their plannings sooner their strategy can become successful ...

Top 5 Gadgets of 2011

1.  Apple iphone 4S

This iteration retained the original design of the iPhone but boosted up by dual core specs and introduced a revolutionary voice recognition based artificial intelligence called Siri. Siri pretty much does everything a virtual personal assistant could be expected to do. The iPhone 4S was announced on October 4, a day before the passing of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs.

2. Apple ipad 2

It provided a sucker punch to the competition from Android as it released before any tangible Android tablet hit the market. It also became leaner and meaner with a slimmer design and dual-core internals. "And ya the iPad 2 was the last Apple product to be unveiled by Steve Jobs."

3. Samsung Galaxy Nexus : A phone with a soul

Armed with Google's latest version of Android called Ice Cream Sandwich and its uber cool 4.65-in reinforced Super AMOLED HD display, the Galaxy Nexus is top dog in the ANDROID ARMY.

4. Amazon Kindle Fire

It came armed with a super affordable $200 price tag, a forked version of Google's Android (customized by Amazon), dual core architecture and, most importantly, integrated Amazon's considerable cloud based services. But bUt buT , not a ipad killer definitely.

5 . Aakash Tablet

What's so special about it? It's made in India,  it's cheap and bundled with Froyo (Android 2.2). At $50, it was pricier than it's original $35 tag, but still the cheapest tablet around. For students (i.e. the targeted market) the price tag will be even cheaper. Moreover , in first quater of 2012  it's Gingerbread version  with higher specs and nearly same price will be launched .

Most amazing iphone ever : Apple iphone 4s BUT....

Our only question is where’s the legendary water-drop model shape ? The four-inch screen ? The seamless frame ? Wait for the next generation of iPhone. The best product is always the next one. Yes, the iPhone 4S is pretty badass in itself, but everyone was expecting too much, so it’s hard to avoid being disappointed. The announcement of the iPhone 4S means we have to wait until next year for the iPhone 5!

Anyways here's the 4s description ->

* Coming with iOS5 (as expected)
* Retains the same design from iPhone 4 with an addition of Apple A5 chip (Double the Power)
* 8 megapixel camera, 1080p video capture
* It comes in black and white variants and will be available in the US from October 14 with pre-orders starting from October 7

Most importantly Apple has introduced "Siri" , a software that works on voice commands but the plus here is that it has a sought of intelligence which will make your life easier unlike other voice controlled softwares which always end up giving pain in head , throat and a..

Intel powered Windows 8 tablet

A Samsung tablet expected to be shown at a Microsoft conference next week will be powered by an Intel chip, according to a source familiar with the device.

Windows chief Steven Sinofsky is expected shows off an early version of Microsoft's Windows 8 operating system running on a tablet from Samsung at the BUILD developers conference next week in Anaheim, Calif.

At least one version of the tablet being shown--and possibly distributed to some attendees--will be based on Intel silicon, said an industry source who is familiar with the device.

The fact that Intel is inside could be viewed as a surprise because many Windows 8 tablets are expected to favor competing ARM processors from suppliers like Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, and Nvidia--the latter is the same supplier whose chips currently power Motorola, Samsung, and Sony tablets that run Google's Android operating system.

It is not clear if other Windows 8 tablets will be shown at the conference running on ARM processors. Nvidia, for example, is expected to have a quad-core chip for tablets and smartphones ready by the end of this year.

Hum something to search something

Yesterday i saw promo of VH1 LEGENDS 2011 , it's background music included a tune of some legendary song and i was like for 2 hours kept humming it. At night started to google out the song but you have to write something to search something and i only had a tune.

So found an awesome... website MIDOMI.COM which asked me to hum the tune/song and it will try to find out the name of that song , after 2-3 tries it gifted me the name GREEN-DAY:BOULEVARD OF BROKEN DREAMS and yes it was exactly the same song i was looking for.

So give it a try if you wanna find a song and don't have any detail about it.

Steve Jobs resigns........

Steve Jobs' resignation as Apple's CEO has shaken the tech world and is stirring rumors of severe health problems.
"I have always said that if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple's CEO, I would be the first to let you know," he wrote in the letter to the company's board of directors. "Unfortunately, that day has come."
Jobs did not elaborate on his reasons for stepping down. While the tech guru has remained tight-lipped on his health status since his pancreatic cancer diagnosis seven years ago, many worry the recent development is a sign his health has taken a turn for the worse.
E-mails to Apple requesting comment were not immediately returned.
Jobs was diagnosed with a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor in 2004. The disease is known to progress more slowly than the more common form of pancreatic cancer, but it can be no less devastating.


Despite his resignation, Jobs expressed optimism for the future of Apple.
"I believe Apple's brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it," wrote Jobs. "And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role. I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you."

Apple's New Mac Line

Apple's Mac line offers products for a variety of uses, ranging from lightweight notebooks to powerful desktop towers, but according to Japanese site Macotakara, a brand new Mac product is on its way.
By way of a rough translation, the site reports:
"According to anonymous source in Asian supplier company, Apple seems to be preparing project to release new Mac line-up which is absolutely different from current products until end of this year."
"Though this source does not told in detail, this new Mac line seems to be clearly different products from current ones, so new product name could be given."
The resulting product may mean a number of things, although recent reports of a MacBook Air Pro come to mind. Given, a revised version of current laptops isn't exactly "clearly different," but the actual meaning may be lost in translation.

Brain chips by IBM

IBM has developed a microprocessor which it claims comes closer than ever to replicating the human brain.
The system is capable of "rewiring" its connections as it encounters new information, similar to the way biological synapses work.
Researchers believe that by replicating that feature, the technology could start to learn.
Cognitive computers may eventually be used for understanding human behaviour as well as environmental monitoring.
Dharmendra Modha, IBM's project leader, explained that they were trying to recreate aspects of the mind such as emotion, perception, sensation and cognition by "reverse engineering the brain."
The SyNAPSE system uses two prototype "neurosynaptic computing chips". Both have 256 computational cores, which the scientists described as the electronic equivalent of neurons.

Google's new Nexus will fight with iPhone 5

Google is said to be preparing the latest of its flagship Nexus range of smartphones, to take on the new iPhone expected this autumn.

The Nexus Prime will reportedly be the first Android smarphone to run “Ice Cream Sandwich”, the next iteration of the operating system.

It is reportedly being built by Samsung, with a 1.5GHz dual-core processor at its heart when it launches in October. The current model, the Nexus S, features a single core, 1GHz processor.

The display will also be upgraded to a 4.5-inch 720p Super AMOLED HD screen, according to reports from South Korea. The Nexus S display is 4-inch and lower resoluton.

Ice Cream Sandwich will merge the main version of Android with Honeycomb, the version adapted for tablets, so some analysts have speculated that the Nexus Prime may do away with hardware buttons such as “home” and “back” found on smartphones.

Will it rain today??? Google maps will tell....

Whether you’re organizing a trip overseas or a picnic at a local park, knowing the weather forecast is a crucial part of the planning process. Google has added a weather layer on Google Maps that displays current temps and conditions around the globe, and will hopefully make travel and activity planning easier.



To add the weather layer, hover over the widget in the upper right corner of Google Maps and select the weather layer from the list of options. When zoomed out, you’ll see a map with current weather conditions from weather.com for various locations, with icons to denote sun, clouds, rain and so on. You can also see cloud coverage, thanks to our partners at the U.S. Naval Research Lab. And, if you look closely, you can also tell if it’s day or night around the world by sun and moon icons.

Enabling the weather layer also gives you an instant weather report for friends and family living around the world. For example, it looks like my family in London isn’t experiencing the best summer weather right now:

Weather near London, UK

Clicking on the weather icon for a particular city will open an info window with detailed data like current humidity and wind conditions, as well as a forecast for the next four days. Below is the upcoming forecast for my location in wintertime Sydney, which seems to have the similar weather as London!

Mozilla Firefox has long been one of the best browsers people all over the world trust and use. It has seen a number of changes and amendments made in it in the past. There are a few reasons one must consider when they think about upgrading their version of the browser.

The first and foremost reason that one should get their system upgraded to the 6th version is because it has more speed. It has better startup times than there was in the previous version of the browser. It won’t give you any trouble in logging in and you won’t have to wait for hours for the system to load.

The peacemaker attribute is used for the purpose of measuring the performance of the browser which uses assigns and Java from scoring. The higher the score of the browser, the better is the performance of the same. It has been revealed that Firefox 6 has a score of 4.572 which is much better when compared to what the previous versions of the browser were given y the peacemaker ran by Howley.

Another great feature of this advancement in the browser is that it has more arrangements for security of the user information and the safety of the PC as well as the person was kept in mind while this system was made.

App store will be one of the features of Windows 8

An app store is officially among the features Microsoft is working to include in Windows 8, much like Apple's App Store for OS X.

The revelation, which confirmed months of rumors, came today from Microsoft President Steven Sinofsky in a Building Windows 8 blog titled "Introducing the team." Among a list of teams associated with building the forthcoming operating system was "App Store."

Sinofsky said that work on the new OS is organized by feature teams, of which there are about 35, each containing 25 to 40 developers.

"Many of the teams listed below describe features or areas that you are familiar with or that you can probably figure out based on the name," he said. "As we post more, team members will identify themselves as part of these teams."

Microsoft representatives did not immediately respond to a request for further comment.

Rumors that Microsoft was developing an app store for Windows have been around for more than a year. Based on a series of Windows 8 documents leaked June 2010, Microsoft has reportedly been eager to match Apple at its own game by offering its own dedicated app store.

An app store appeared in a demonstration of Windows 8 that Sinofsky gave at the All Things Digital D9 conference in late June. Included in the start-up menu tiles was a direct link to a Microsoft Store, suggesting that Microsoft was working it own version of an online application store, similar to Apple's App Store.

The company has also been working hard to keep Apple from winning a U.S. trademark for the phrase App Store. Microsoft argues the phrase is too generic to register and would restrict competitors' ability to use of the term to describe their own services.

Microsoft has not officially announced when the new OS would be released, but CEO Steve Ballmer said in May that the new OS would reach consumers in 2012, although the company later said Ballmer misspoke. In June, Vice President Dan'l Lewin hinted that Windows 8 would launch during the fall of 2012.

Enjoy games on google+

I can just say that Google Inc. is leaving no stone unturned in making its social network project Google+ the next big social networking website. On Thursday it announced the availability of online games on Google+ , it can be easily seen that the competition is heating up with Facebook Inc.

Google is currently offering 16 games from 10 gaming companies, including Rovio Mobile Ltd.'s popular Angry Birds game and Zynga Inc.'s Zynga Poker. The offerings will expand over time, the company said.

I personally like the interface for the games...its always better to open application like games in a pop up window and google has kept this thing in mind.

I hope like Facebook ,google make its project a success and not just an another usual website

Below I have just put some random screenshots ,u can check them out.

Bing overcomes Google in search effectiveness

Most of you who will read this get a feel of shock,unlike me who became a bit sad for Google being beaten by Microsoft's Bing.There is no doubt that Google control the lion's share of the search market, but queries made through Microsoft's Bing search engine lead users to click on a Web page at a significantly higher rate than queries made through Google, according to data released Thursday.

The success rate for Bing searches in the U.S. in July was 80.04%, compared to 67.56% for Google, according to Experian Hitwise. The market watcher defines "success rate" as the percentage of search queries that result in a visit to a website. Searches made through sites owned by Yahoo, which farmed out search to Bing under a deal struck in 2009, were also more efficient than Google. Those searches yielded a success rate of 81.36%.

Experian officials said the results show that there's room for both Google and Microsoft to step up their games when it comes to search accuracy. "The share of unsuccessful searches highlights the opportunity for both the search engines and marketers to evaluate the search engine results pages to ensure that searchers are finding relevant information."

Search engine users could also probably help themselves a lot by formulating more precise queries. Experian's numbers show that the plurality of searches, 25.32%, are made with just a single word, followed by two-word and three-word queries, with shares of 24.09% and 19.49%, respectively.

Tutorial for modding your android

1. What modding your droid actually means ?

It simply means making custom modifications to hardware(ie overclocking) and software(ie switching to a custom rom which provides you the latest version of android which isn't officially available by your device manufacturer)

2. What is custom rom ?

Various manufacturers in the market like samsung , HTC , motorola , LG etc sell android powered devices . The OS(or ROM) they provide is not pure/vanilla android , they actually do some modifications over the actual android for making their devices distinct and more interactive in comparisons to their competitors. For example :

Samsung's UI is called TouchWiz

HTC's UI is called HTC SENSE(very impressive)

Now their are different communities which provide their own flavors(or ROM) of android "for free" with unique UI and performance tweaks which overalls improves your performance drastically . Among all the communities Cyanogenmod is the most popular one. Go to their website , select your device model and download the latest stable version

3. How to root your device ?

As we all know that android is based on linux kernel so it's quite obvious that installing a custom rom via rom manager would require root access which implies that first you have to root your device . The rooting procedure vary with the devices so you have to google this out on your own and trust me it's a kid's stuff you hardly have to tap once in the whole procedure and rest of the things are handled automatically.

4. How to install rom manager , backup your current rom and flash your device ?

I don't have much to say since this video explains it beautifully . Still if you have any query you can ask

JUST FOLLOW THE VIDEO AND WOOLAAA....... YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED LATEST VERSION OF ANDROID WHICH IS NOT EVEN OFFICIALLY AVAILABLE FOR YOUR DEVICE BY THE MANUFACTURER

Video calling added to Facebook

Facebook wants to make it easier for its users to see each others' faces. The company, as expected, introduced integrated Video Calling, along with Group Chat and a new chat interface design.

Facebook Video Calling, powered by a compact Skype plug-in, allows users to launch a video chat session with one other person using only two clicks. Because the plug-in is downloaded on-demand, with a single permission request, users can initiate video calls and recipients can answer without pre-installing Skype's software.

This approach does away with a traditional barrier to the growth and adoption of software-based services, on both the Web and the desktop--the need to install and maintain software.

"The majority of users don't want to take the time to configure this stuff themselves," said Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg to the group of journalists who had come to Face

iPhone:Getting Lighter and Thinner

So in this summer having an iPhone more lighter and thinner than the previous versions is enough to bring cheers
How much thinner or lighter, I don't know; the iPhone 4, which came out last summer, weighs 4.8 ounces and is .37 of an inch thick. There's also been discussion of a curved screen on the next model, as well as an 8-megapixel camera (compared to the 5-megapixel one it has now).

The Wall Street Journal Wednesday also noted the 8-megapixel camera as being likely for the new iPhone, as well as a sleeker, slimmer version, based on reports from "some suppliers of components to Apple."

Not only are the dimensions and camera of interest, but so is the timing for what is apparently a more complex piece of equipment than the current version. This is the first year since the iPhone came out in 2007 that its summer release has been pushed back.

ANDROID AND ANDROID EVERYWHERE

Google's Andy Rubin,the creator of Android has revealed that Android is now being activated on 500,000 smartphones and tablets each day, with 4.4 percent week-to-week growth.

Google's Android mobile operating system is growing vastly like ....man i cannot imagine.

Andy announced that he is now seeing 500,000 Android smartphones and tablets activated each day. That's up from 400,000 activations Rubin copted to in May at Google I/O and 300,000 he tweeted about last December.

Rubin, who revealed the news early June 28 in this Twitter tweet, also said he is seeing a 4.4 percent week-to-week growth in handsets and tablets running the open source operating system.

The news comes one week after reports surfaced that Apple's iPhone 4 on Verizon Wireless and the forthcoming iPhone 5 are slowing Android's smartphone market share roll.

Experience Honeycomb in the Sony way

Sony officially entered the tablet market by unveiling two new tablet devices for release this Fall. As everybody and their mother and fathers are rushing into the tablet market to compete with Apple’s iPad after its unprecedented success, it’s not surprising to see one of the largest electronic makers in the world throw their hat into the ring.

What is surprising to us, however, is the decidedly different approaches each of Sony’s new tablets(S1 and S2) are taking compared to the rest of the crowd. And from a gamer’s perspective, the fact that both tablets are powered by Tegra 2 chips and will be the first tablets to officially be “PlayStation Certified” is definitely intriguing.

At any rate, these new devices are pretty interesting, and it will be fun to see how this all plays out over the course of this year and next.If one thing’s for certain," there’s never been a better time to be a mobile gamer as the mobile gaming scene continues to expand and evolve at an incredible pace".

Blackberry PlayBook Wants To Take A Bite Out Of Galaxy Tab and Motorola Xoom

BlackBerry sells about 50,000 tablets on launch day . Considering all the negative reviews its received before its launch hence we did not posted about this BUT the "BlackBerry tablet PlayBook" sold more than expected . Accroding to an analysis of the sale figures , Research In Motion (RIM) might have sold 50,000 tablets on launch day which is much better than those of other tablets such as Samsung's Galaxy Tab and Motorola's Xoom both of which run Google Android operating system. Some of the key specs are mentioned below :

# 1 GHZ Dual-Core Processor

# Dual HD cameras

# 1 GB RAM

# Long battery life and USB port too

Its all about the LOGO

Dont get surprised by such type of post on this blog
I know its not a regular one neither i'm going to talk on some latest tech in this post.Its quite a different one but as they always say "sometimes we should try something new"

This post will make you familiar with the hidden messages in some reputed companies logos.
I hope you wont regret reading this one......

Amazon at first...

The logo is not a difficult one but dont consider it as simple as it looks.
Just notice the arrow.You might say what this silly arrow doing here
But it says that the company sell everything from A to Z and also it represents the smiles of amazon's customers. Get the point??now just dont go so deep.Lets check out others






Sony vaio
 Dont think that I have one of theirs laptop but the hidden message really impressed me.Well, the first two letters represent the basic analogue signal. The last two letters look like a 1 and 0, representing the digital signal.







lets talk about mother of java.you guessed it right..

SUN microsystems
The logo is a perfect example of symmetry and genius brain behind it. The letters 'U' and 'N' are so arranged that they together resemble 'S'in a perpendicular direction.
Literally mind blowing...







HP
The logo is a simple one but there is an interesting event behind it
Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard,the founders,tossed a coin to decide whether the company they founded would be called Hewlett-Packard or Packard-Hewlett.
amazed...sometimes it happens







APPLE
'i' this 'i 'that and a non ending list of iproducts which the company is known for
there are lots of stories you have heard about its logo
someone told me it's favourite fruit of founder Steve Jobs. He was three months late in filing a name for the business, and he threatened to call his company Apple Computers if the other colleagues didn't suggest a better name by 5 o'clock.
a good one...
bye the way the bite in the apple actually represents the BYTE of computer memory



Fedex


many of us fail to notice a hidden symbol in the Federal Express logo.
Just try to find the hidden 'arrow' in the logo
you want a hint...you can see it between the E and the x in this logo. The arrow was introduced to highlight speed and precision, for which the company is known.


and there are much more companies and more interesting logos in the corporate sector
But one thing i can definately say  LOGOS are overview of a company......

This summer have "MANGO" from WINDOWS

Microsoft has released his upgraded version of Windows Phone7  , codenamed Mango, which was detailed at the MIX11 keynote in Las Vegas.

Although the company has promised new functionality that incorporates full multi-tasking and fast application switching for the first time but the real thing will get unveiled when it would reach in hands of users

Microsoft has also announced that it will also boast motion-sensing technology and multi-tasking 

Mango will also give developers access to the camera and motion-sensing library opening the possibility for rich augmented reality experiences to arrive on the Windows Phone 7 platform.

Microsoft plans to release Mango in autumn, adding support for 16 additional languages.  Applications will be available to download or buy in more countries -- 25 up from 16

Apps will also benefit from deeper phone integration, meaning that they can take advantage of the Live Tiles UI on WP7 phones and there'lll also be audio playback for HTML5 websites.

Microsoft has also attracted some big name apps for WIndows Phone 7 with apps like Skype, Amazon, Kik Messenger, Spotify and Layar set to arrive on the platform with the new version of the OS.

The company is also planning to expand the reach of the Windows Phone App Marketplace with by upping the number of countries from 16 to 35, including China for the first time.

CHROME plus

ChromePlus has all the functionalities that Google Chrome has. Moreover,ChromePlus added some useful features such as :

1. Double click tab to close page -> In ChromePlus, you just double click within the tab area and deleted page will close.

2. IE tab -> Some web pages use IE controls and thus can only run in IE correctly. The IE tab is designed to visit these pages. Just look for an icon/An (IE) icon appears in the right of the location bar.

3. Super Drag -> Dragging and dropping a block of text in the page will create a page and search the text with your default search engine.

4. Mouse gesture -> The Arrow Trace mouse gesture draws an arrow trace on the page while you using the right button of your mouse.

AMAZON CLOUD DRIVE

Before I tell u something just view this video and get idea about what i'm going to tell you

Amazon has released his open cloud drive which allows you to store all our favourite digital music collection using Amazon cloud drive and what else...play it on any Mac, PC, or Android device using Amazon Cloud Player ...no doubt an innovative step.  Moreover if u purchase any new digital music from amazon u can store it on your cloud drive for free.....no I'm not kidding. You can also upload your existing music library to Amazon Cloud Drive so you have all your music in one place, accessible from anywhere.
You would be given 5GB of free storage for uploading content. Additional storage is available for an annual fee.
Amazon Cloud Player is a browser based application that supports both Mac and PC computers. Cloud Player is not optimized to run on mobile phones or tablets including: iPhones, Blackberrys, Windows Mobile devices, and iPads. For Android phones and tablets, I recommend installing the Amazon MP3 app for Android which includes Amazon Cloud Player for Android..


REQUIREMENTS

1. For browser

The Amazon Cloud Player is optimized to run with flash installed on the following browsers:

• Internet Explorer 8 and newer
• Firefox version 3.5 and above
• Chrome
• Safari 

The Amazon Cloud Player does not support the following browsers:

• Internet Explorer 6
• Internet Explorer 7
• Opera

   2.Javascript-on

   Amazon Cloud Player will not work if you have JavaScript turned off on your browser. 

Internet Explorer 9

"Unlocking the beauty of the web" thats Microsoft new tag line for IE9. So finally the company has realized that you surfers require more web & less "irritating" toolbar.The screenshots put highlight on this







Design & user interface

Honestly speaking the difference in space in different browsers really seems insignificant to me

as far as speed is concerned not a bad option.
it depends on your personal preference

Open Source

Hey while working on linux i got an idea to let you know about UBUNTU &  its some best applications

Ubuntu is an entirely open source O.S. built around the Linux kernel.Its community follows the ideals of Ubuntu philosophy:

• people should be given FREE O.S.
• O.S. tools should be usable by people in their local language 
• people should have freedom to alter their software in whatever way they want it to be

Ubuntu a south african ideology focussing on people's relations with each other.

                UBUNTU- "HUMANITY TOWARDS OTHER"

I have ranked some best applications of linux


TOPPER:  WINE

If u think Windows is the soul of a p.c. then think again because i will give you a reason to use ubuntu
"WINE"-It doesn't disappoint the one who comes from the world of windows...... believe it.
Wine  is a compatibility layer for running windows applications on Linux.Applications are run at full speed without the need CPU emulator. Shocked.......oh really  If i tell you can even run photoshop & MS Office or play games  like half life, what would be your reaction...
