More Fire in Firefox2.0

“Version 2.0 is similar in spirit to the previous versions, but shorter, better, and more compatible with other Free Software and Open Source Licenses,” Says Mozilla Project.
 "Version 2.0 is” a “file-level copyleft” license. The license is designed to encourage contributors to share modifications they make to MPL-licensed code, while still allowing users to create projects that combine MPL-licensed code with code under other licenses (either open or proprietary) .. Mozilla Project

Version 2.0 also:

• provides patent protections for contributors more in line with those of other open source licenses, and allows an entire community of contributors to protect any contributor if they are sued.
• provides compatibility with the Apache and GPL licenses, making code reuse and redistribution easier.

Judging by the past I expect a lot more Fire in FireFox in 2012.

TOI wins this round :

Have u guys checked out the chrome APP for TOI

Its the best i have seen so far .

To be fair i have not reviewed many Indian news apps

But i have seen a few and i like the TIMES OF INDIA app the best.

TOI CHROMEAPP

Its simple , uncluttered and very intuitive.

Just the way i like it.

I am a Hindustan Times reader and i have their print subscription at home.

But their online version sucks.

Moreover the chrome app is either a link to their online URL or u can just read snippets from the browser plugin.

Their Online version is nothing but scanned copy of the paper .

come on u can do better than that.

I hope you do some thing about it HT.

For now though TOI seems to be the best.

Do you guys know any more that are as simple and beautiful as TOI

please dont hesitate, u know what to do ?

Share the info.

Unity doesn't really work here !!!

I love Ubuntu .
I used to say it proudly and loudly till UNITY showed up.
I was having quite nice relation with ubuntu .
We had been having an affair for quite a while now . She was all i ever asked.
she gave me choice , freedom , she followed everything that i asked of her .
She just did things without  being fussy, never displayed any bad attitude by throwing unwanted dialog boxes with unreal error messages and obscure error codes.
It was a match made in heaven.
But then all good things do tend to come to an end.
Ubuntu took it to her heart after the parents divorce <canonical has changed a lot>.
It became nasty and ugly.
I dig all the reasons why unity was developed, But having said that, for an advanced and old ubuntu user like me Unity is like ugly giant pimple  on a beautiful face.
I seriously doubt if new users of ubuntu find it easy , I sure dont  !!
But even then ubuntu i love you and will always do !!

Lately i have been having dreams about opensuse  as well mostly because of its out of the box option of KDE or GNOME and it doesn't have unity .

 You are still my #1 maverick chick  but for how long ...... ??
 Well opensuse  !! You kind a look cute  !!
Damn you UNITY !!!!!

well i m not the only one u know !!
just google i hate unity !!

A Chip in time saves ...



Lets take a look as to how far micro-processors have come .
