SkyFire launches “world’s first” flash-enabled mobile browser for Android.  [Spoiler: It's awesome!] [Update]

…..and just like that, Fennec was beaten to the punch. While Fennec may be the hot stuff in the media’s eye currently with pre-alpha’s jumping around, another contender need not be forgotten — SkyFire. It’s been around for quite some time to Symbian and WinMo users, though today it’s Android’s time to shine. You may recall a leaked beta of SkyFire for Android surfacing about a week ago that was honestly kind of rough around the...

Opera Mini approved, now available in App Store

For those who thought Apple lacked common sense and was destined to ruining the App Store one useless rejection at a time, good news. Apple has approved Opera Mini for the iPhone! Coming from the BlackBerry world, I used to live by Opera Mini. It saved my sanity many times.

In real life, it’s not quite that drastic — to a human face anyway. ...

IE 6 refuses to die. But why?

IE 6 refuses to die.  But why?

I’ve spent a considerable amount of time criticizing Internet Explorer 6′s continued lingering in the public sector. For consumers, IE6 is at the very bottom of the totem pole of relevance. The corporate sector however, is an entirely different story. My personal opinion was that the reason for the reliance on old software and technology was simply because of legacy hardware and software dependent on the outdated browser. Well, I was right — partially....

Chrome for Mac to come in a tad underweight…

I can’t wait for Google Chrome on Mac. Almost since day 1, it replaced Firefox as my main Windows browser and over the last couple of weeks each build release has inched closer and closer to perfection. Granted, I use perfection loosely, merely using it to describe a “finished”, stable product. While we can expect a Chrome 4 for Mac of some sort in the next couple of weeks, it will be far from perfect, finished, or full featured. Features such as...
