Browsers All the way ! ! !

At the centre of all internet activity are the web-browsers and there has been so much happening in the web browser industry that I thought why not gather some information and put in together to give a round up of it .

Let me begin with the founder of sorts in this industry Netscape .Mosaic Netscape 0.9 ,that’s how the current version of Netscape Navigator started with on October 13, 1994 , credited with popularising the internet and once commnading 90 % of the internet traffic , this browser for sure revolutionised the web . Netscape’s support to the development of Firefox in it’s earlier stage is a great credit to the brower . Now an arm of AOL , this browser lost it’s charm to the others . Last month when AOL announced it is going to discontinue it’s support for Netscape it was nail in the coffin for this browser.
But this browser for sure will remain in the minds of many as a Trend Setter .


Next in line is Internet Explorer , a leader by a long way , thanks to the numerous windows based computer of which it is a default part .May be it’s destiny that all windows users are tied to the IE brand .But IE 7 has made us rethink the thought . IE 7 did show some promise with the renewed stying , tabbed browsing and enhanced compatability.And the Hot news is that IE 8 will be released quite soon with remarkable developments. And the industry is eagerly awaiting this , hope it does satisfy the expectations ; if it does , it sure will remain the "Baadshah " of browsers.

All along the windows users were devoid of the styling and personal experience that the Mac offers , but not any more , Apple has released the Safari 3 Beta version for Windows a browser in from the Mac stable with a rich interface .Promising to be the fastest browser ,this brower will have to come over some of it’s bugs to prove it worth.The full version which is due in some time is already creating expectations.Safari Promises to be a great ride.

Firefox is slowly crawling up the popularity charts , the Firefox 3 beta 2 release is out , and the devlopments are quite stunning, with more stress on performance firefox is proving why it is increasing it's presence everyday.Though the latest version of firefox doesn’t support the many addons that firefox usually sports for customisation it’s a great bet.Firefox has also started projects like Weave to help syncronise online contents between firefox broswers and to provide Mozilla hosted online services. Prism is another initiative by Firefox to use an application that lets users split web applications out of their browser and run them directly on their desktop.This is one browser Firing it's way to the top.


Spacetime is one browser that is creating waves. Browser with visual stacks that space time in short; it’s a browser, which displays the pages in three-dimensional arrangements. With 3D Search, 3D tabbed browsing; Space time is a browser for the future.Though a little heavy on the system resources this browser is one to watch out for.

With the Browser business heating up, the user is left with many choices and a better Internet experience.

Reflection ! ! !

" When you carry out acts of kindness you get a wonderful feeling inside. It is as though something inside your body responds and says,yes, this is how I ought to feel." - Harold Kushner

I was driving my way back home after a normal day at office when somebody on the road stopped me for a lift. The traffic made me reluctant to stop, but something in me told me to stop and I did after a few meters. I turned back to find a handicapped man standing with his crutches. I offered him the lift as he wanted to be dropped on my way back home .we did travel a few kilometers and there came the place where he was to get down, I asked him if his house was close by, he did respond rather politely with an abundance of stoicism, that his house was half a kilometer away and it wasn't in my route. But I decided to drop him in front of his house. And when we reached there he invited me into his house with a thanks that was accompanying with every sentence he uttered .He also did tell me not many people offer him a lift and among those who offered a very few drop him at his house. My natural instinct would have been to advertise this act of mine and gain popularity for my kindness. But for a change I did take this chance to think. The outcome was quite enlightening, what I did to the crippled man was a small help from my end but it did mean a lot to him.

That's the whole point of this blog " May b it's a very small help, but if u can do it,Do it ".

On one instance I called up my friend to tell him about something that was bugging my mind, and I did tell him all that was in my mind and he patiently listened to it and offered few words of advice. After the call I felt a lot better and with some new found energy. Instantly I called him up again and thanked him for his help, and he told me " it's just a small help ". May b it's a small help listening, but to the troubled mind it's a precious help. Calling up a friend once in a while not only rejuvenates your spirit but to see someone getting benefited by your help gives you a good feeling which only a great success can match. On the same lines whenever u get a chance do some good to people around you ,do it , try visiting people when they're ill . You can bring smiles to the face of a child begging on the streets by offering a piece of bread (I don't vouch Begging in any sense ). These may be small ,but such acts of kindness are the ones that transform the way you live .


Many people have this instinct to help, but they label it social service and get mystified by the huge proposition of work that this term accompanies. So it's not all about helping the society, if u can do that it's great, but even if social service is a tall order to you it's just showing kindness to people around you, for these small acts of kindness have the power to transform lives.

So with this small thought I'll sign off.

Am Back ! ! !
