Bing: Safe Search Updates

As Bing Issues buzzed the online world last week or i may say early this week, Microsoft is now taking action on this not so good outcome of their promising search engine.



And i am talking about the Bing unblocked Porn displays in their search site. But today, according to Mike Nichols, General Manager of Bing, they have done two changes to address the issue.

First, a separate single domain was made, explicit.bing.net - this will serve as filter site for those explicit images and videos. If you think you can browse the said link, then sorry, it is invisible to us, users and if you really want to try to access such, you will be automatically redirected to its main page, bing.com



Second, Bing has now starting to display the URL source of the query string for images and video content.

Google Chrome: The future of web browser



Yehey! At last, Google Inc. has launched its Web browser beta for windows named Google Chrome last September 2, 2008 in 43 languages.

For non-techy, what is GOOGLE CHROME?

According to wikipedia:
"Google Chrome is an open source web browser developed by Google. The name is derived from the graphical user interface frame, or "chrome", of web browsers.[1] Chromium is the name of the open source project behind Google Chrome,[2] released under the BSD license."

According from Google site:
"Google Chrome is a browser that combines a minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier."

One box for everything
Type in the address bar and get suggestions for both search and web pages.

Thumbnails of your top sites
Access your favorite pages instantly with lightning speed from any new tab.

Shortcuts for your apps
Get desktop shortcuts to launch your favorite web applications.




And for me, it is very cool in regards to design, it looks like a web folder. And as we know, every beta release of any web or system applications, problem is commonly encountered. I am hoping this web browser will not be the same with IE 7 or 8, coz it really "the Nerve" for us users.

So far, Google Chrome is good, long way to go Google Chrome Team, Long live Google! lol.... for Google Chrome Beta version, click HERE to download.

Omnisio, a video creation, sharing and presentation site was acquired by Google. They will be joining the YOUTUBE team, and soon use their knowledge and ideas for the Youtube community to be more interactive and innovative in products and feature.



Omnisio's acquisition statement says "We are thrilled to announce that we've been acquired by Google and will soon be joining the YouTube team, aligning us with the market leaders in online video. Together we'll apply what we've learned about the space, and we'll work to develop innovative products and features for the YouTube community.

Internet Explorer 8 and Its Technical Challenge

One of the issues being raised by some of the IE7 users or even me, is that some of the sites showed in IE7 looked really bad but not with IE6. The reason?

"The reason was that the sites had worked around IE6 issues with content that – when viewed with IE7’s improved Standards mode – looked bad." as stated in microsoft blog.

This is the technical challenge IE team is working on, because for sure what had happened with IE7 and 6 will do the same with IE 8.

"In other words, the technical challenge here is how can IE determine whether a site’s content expects IE8’s Standards mode or IE7’s Standards mode? Given how many sites offer IE very different content today, which should IE8 default to?"


Truely, as a user, i do not like to work with IE7 around, i'd rather love to use IE6 than that. But if this IE8 will work great, why not? Let us give Microsoft a chace.. (lol)..

MS Firefox: Is this true?

waaaaaaaaa.. i will not know this thing if not because of my friend JEHZ .. he give me the fake site and read them all away.... and there you go! i found the site .. FAKE! that site is fake.. would it be true that microsoft will acquire the Mozilla Corporation's web browser---FIREFOX? and called it MS FIREFOX 2007? WOW!

If you will visit the site .. they offer the following features:

1. The so called "Cut away effect" - andomly disables the rendering of 9/10 of Microsoft Firefox helps to reduce the strain on system resources
2. Instant Search Box - Expands when needed, and can be anchored in place for even easier access
3. RSS - no this is not what you think of "Really Simple Syndication" --- they called it "Real Simple Sex"... look! Accessed by an illuminating an icon on the toolbar - a single click allows you to view and optionally download anything that resembles a tit, a boob or a breast - rendered directly in the browser with speeds up to 10 times faster than the competition

4. and many more!

SO what do you think of this site? .. FAKE or FAUX? lol!
