Oh yea, I am not joking ! Here is a iPhone running windows xp on it. Now, here is the secret, as explained in the end of the video, he is running XP on a mac as a virtual machine and sharing the screen on a second display using a program, and the second display is his iPhone !
Rumor has it that Google is planning a Facebook like social media networking platform, named “Google Me”. This news comes after their failed experiment with “buzz” which was supposed to be a twitter competitor. So, its better not to have too much of expectations about this
The news came out through a tweet by Kevin Rose, found of digg.com, which according to him, was from a credible source. Well, let’s hope so !
Well, Google, one question though, do you remember Orkut.com ?
Gmail will be the most used website, or webapp and we always wait patiently wait for it to load, we understand the pain it takes to load all our emails chats and attachments right ?
You said Yes ?
Really ?
I thought so, gmail is loading slower these days with all the new features and extensions added to it and if you have offline gmail enabled, it will take much longer for gmail to load. Well, Google also knows this patience test that we go through every time we open gmail and they are working on a 1 second to inbox startup solution.
Google is planning to do this with the latest HTML5 technology which is gaining popularity these days. ( Apple, iPhone, Flash is evil – got the puzzle ? )
Thanks to HTML5, we will soon have advanced features on more webapps, and gmail will be on of the best platforms for HTML5 to show its strength.
