Title: Tech news
Post by: smokey_locs2002 on January 30, 2005, 03:33:23 AM

Anyone know any news about anything technology related?
Such as releases dates and rumors.

I have two things to share so far. Google is coming out with it's own web browser made by some people who worked on fire fox's web browser and a new p2p newwork just came out called eXeem. It rune like bit torrenrts.

I think Google coming out with a browser like Firefox is a little ironic...

Yeah, but they have a different objective. Google wants to put Microsoft Internet Explorer to shame. I guess making web browsers is a new trend...

Google can't do that, Firefox already HAS. Googles just becoming crazy and wants to dominate the market. Not that that's a bad thing, it's just kinda sad when you realize these companies are on the high road to becoming just like Microsoft.

If most of the programs I use/would use/will use/don't know about but would like to use once I do/would use if someone made it aren't Linux compatible. And I'm too lazy to run off and get an emulator for them. So Windows for me.

IE puts itself to shame, much like George W. Bush.
