Firefox 3.6 Beta 1 ready for download, with Windows 7 and accelerometer support
The interface has obviously gone through a lot of work, as our first experience showed a remarkable difference in the current FF 3.5 we are running and the 3.6 beta. The start-up from a cold boot has gotten much faster – still not as fast as IE or Google Chrome, but it is no longer a noticeable delay.
There is some more eye-candy in the form of preview panes in the default Ctrl+Tab scrolling. A small preview pane, much like what you would get with Alt+Tab in Windows, shows up with all your tabs in it. Quite handy, but not a feature that wowed us given that other extensions were already doing this.
Windows 7 support
“For those who missed the news, in Windows 7, some applications can now show their tabs directly on the Windows task bar, allowing for easier tab management. On a personal note, I absolutely hate this feature: Applications added tabs to reduce the clutter on the task bar, and Windows now find a way to sneak them in nonetheless!

Live your life and let others live!(in harmony)

“I'm done tryin' to please, I ain't livin' for tabloids, I am living for me,” the 16-year-old singer and star of Disney's hit TV show Hannah Montana sang in a “Goodbye Twitter” rap posted on YouTube.
Cyrus, a busy Tweeter with a following of more than one million people, made headlines on last Thursday by suddenly quitting Twitter, a popular microblogging site which lets users from celebrities to businesses and politicians post messages .
“The rumors are true, I deleted my Twitter,” she sang, saying she had started “tweeting about pimples”, had stopped “living for moments” and instead had “started living for people.” “Everything that I type, Everything that I do, some gossip site makes it news,” she added. This mess in her life is unbearable for her and only found quitting twitter is the right way. However not long after she quit the fans chanted to re-open her twitter account and you will see how much it will last. Any way living a public life where others get to know what ever you do for entertainment must have been difficult. At last let it give me some guts to remove my facebook account.

Opera 10 with... Turbo!!!
Ok you firefox and chrome guys have you heard it or not but probably the worlds fastest internet browser has just got even more faster, by the release of 'Opera 10 with turbo'.
* Opera 10 utilizes a new page compression technology that helps Web surfers on 3G or slow Wi-Fi connections browse the Web at “broadband-like” speeds. Opera boasts that Opera Turbo enables the browser to pull pages at 8X faster than its rivals when dealing with slow connections.
* Opera 10 allows users to resize a browser tab by pulling it down, which shows a thumbnail image of the page. This is a handy tool for power users that keep multiple tabs open at a time, and would like the benefit of “at a a glance” tab identification. These “Visual Tabs” are on top of the browser by default, but can be moved to the sides or bottom.
* Opera 10 now has a more attractive interface than previous versions.
* Other tweaks include a more flexible Speed Dial bookmarking grid, 51 language spell checker, improved e-mail client (with threaded conversations), Opera Link synchronization, and 40-percent faster page loading over Opera 9.6.
Something Missing?
Still I find some of the big websites like google, windows live mail, even blogger fails to shows the interface as it looks on the firefox or internet explorer.
In this war of browsers opera has lacked to the 5th place. Is Opera 10 worth better? Why not give it a chance, try it.

Flixya.com - Share everything - A review
Just another version of social networking websites around you is Flixya. It lets you share videos, photos and blog. You can add friends to your network and comment on each other.
Not that exciting is it??
Here the thing that might excite you a bit, you can monetize it and it give 100% ad revenue. Don't take it wrong for if it has its own ad service; its from adsense (aww, for someone). They just publish your ads and not take a penny from it.
To add more things: You can upload your own video or attach other videos from google video, youtube, dailymotion etc, upload you own picture ( you can't attach them from other websites), and you own blog if you have seen enough of blogger and wordpress.
Everthing sounds quite well huh!
See the website and at least go to 2 videos or photos. It would be sun rising from west if you didn't see the comments like "hit+", "I like it"(you will know the meaning of it, once you use it) and similar comments. What are those?? They are for the ads to be simple. The network in which one is exchanges the hits or impressions for the ads and sometimes clicks them too.
This website was not created for this purpose, but peoples find different uses you see.
