Google Chrome Browser is Out Now

Search and advertising giant Google will today launch a trial version of its own web browser in a clear attempt to break Microsoft's dominance over the way people access the web.

Google say their software, called Chrome, is designed to handle the latest web services such as video-rich pages and online office document editing faster and more securely.

A rethink of the browser is needed, says the firm, because existing programs have their roots in an age when the web offered only text and images.

Google confirmed its browser's existence in a company blog post after it mistakenly mailed details of Chrome to a blog.

Comic error

A 38-page comic book sent to the blog – available to view online here – described Chrome and its creators' hopes for the product.

A trial version of Chrome for Windows users will be available from this site on tomorrow. Versions for Apple Mac and Linux users are planned.

Chrome's launch coincides with the introduction last month of Internet Explorer 8 by arch-rival Microsoft last month.

Roughly 75% of all web users access the web using a Microsoft browser, around 18% using the open source Mozilla Firefox and 6% Apple's Safari browsers.

Open source

Google's engineers have used open-source code from a variety of projects including Apple's Web Kit used in Safari, and Firefox.

Chrome's code will itself be open source – available for other developers to enhance and expand.

Google says that Chrome will load pages faster and more securely than rival browsers. It also has a purpose-built engine for loading the interactive JavaScript code behind many of the advanced features of current websites. This is designed to Chrome run the next generation of yet-to-be-invented web applications.

Google stands to benefit from people using the new software. Google's Toolbar already collects information about the pages visited by users, which helps the company tune its search and advertising services. Chrome could collect information in a similar way.

'Porn mode'

Another feature is a privacy mode that lets users create an "incognito" window where "nothing that occurs in that window is ever logged on your computer".

A similar feature, dubbed "porn mode" by bloggers, was recently announced by Microsoft for Internet Explorer 8. Apple's Safari already features a private browsing mode.

John Lilly, chief executive of the non-profit company Mozilla Corp that promotes Firefox, said Google had recently renewed its arrangement to be the largest financial backer of his company until 2011.

Mozilla recently introduced its own upgraded browser, Firefox 3, and has collaborated with Google on technical issues in the past, such as how to make browsers more secure.

Lilly says that Mozilla and Google would continue to collaborate where it made sense for both organisations.

But he acknowledges things have changed: "With [Explorer], Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc – there's been competition for a while now, and this increases that."

मुगु अनुभव - यात्रा

...सुर्खेतमा (हुन त नेपालगन्जबाट पनि सिधा हवाइ सम्पर्क छ, मुगुमा) टिकट पाउने लम्बेतान संघर्ष(?) पछी मुगूको लागि उडान निश्चित हुन्छ । कपडा र आवश्यक केही सरसामानहरुको गह्रुङ्गो झोला सहितको काउन्टर चेक इन पछी डिपार्चर रुम मा छिर्न पाउनु खुबै आनन्द लाग्दो हुन्छ किनकी अब टिकटको लागि हिजो जस्तो संघर्ष गर्नुपर्ने छैन । डिपार्चर रुम को बातावरण पनि रोचक छ । बिमान कम्पनिहरुले दिने १५ किलो को तौल सिमिततालाई छल्न कैयनले अनेकौँ पत्र कपडा लगाएका हुन्छन र कोहिले मुगुमा पाइन्न भनेर लहलहाउँदा रायोका साग र कतिले ब्रोइलर कुखुराका मासु कोसेलिका रुपमा बोकेका हुन्छन । ...एउटी जरखरिएकी एअरहोस्टेस औपचारिक स्वागत गर्छे र सबैलाई सिटबेल्ट बाँध्न निर्देश गर्छे अनी नजानेका यात्रुलाई हप्काइको भाषामा बाँध्न पनि सिकाउँछे । म भने सिटको अघिल्तिर राखिएको आपतकालिन सुरक्षा निर्देशिकाको सानो पन्ना पल्टाउँदै एअरहोस्टेसको ब्यबसायिकताको बारेमा सोच्न लाग्छु । एअरहोस्टेस 'यती एअरलाइन्स' लेखिएको खोलले बेरिएको चकलेट र कपासका टुक्राहरु किस्तिमा बोकेर आउँछे । धन्यवाद सहित म एउटा चकलेट र दुई टुक्रा कपास निकालेर कानमा राख्छ

म र ऊ - एउटा अनलाइन भेट [कथा]

“तिमी को हो?” मेरो प्रश्न थियो! उसले भनी, “खुशी” । “को खुशी”, मैले सोधेँ ! “ह्या, कस्तो नचिन्या होला? म खुशी के ! रहर, छायाँ, खुशी जे भने नि म नै हो के”, उसको जवाफ ! “ए, तिमी पो, कता हराकी थियौ? अब के भनौँ त तिमीलाई उसोभए?” “जे भने नि हुन्छ!” “उसोभए म खुशी भन्छु है”, मैले भनेँ ! उसले हुन्छ भन्ने जनाउ दिन, आँखा सन्काइ र लेखी “हे हे” । कुरा यसरी नै सुरु भएको थियो च्याटमा ! च्याटमा को सँग कुरा गरिरहेछु, आफैँलाई पत्तो छैन, न पहिले च्याट गरिएको थियो, न भेट नै गरिएको थियो । ट्विटरमा नाम परिवर्तन गरिरहने ऊसँग ट्विटरमा आक्कल झुक्कल कुरा गरिने भएपनि उनको ‘म्यासेज’ पहिलोपल्ट च्याटमा अकस्मात आइपुगेको थियो ! म उनको बारेमा प्रस्ट हुन सकिरहेको थिँइन ! अत: फेरि सोधेँ, “यो खुशी को हो?” मेरो प्रश्नले, उसले आफू दुखित भएको जनाउ दिन लेखी “:(” “हैन किन यति रिङ्ग्याएको मलाई”, मैले सोधेँ । “नाम मे क्या रखा है? ;)”, उसको जवाफ ! “नाममा धेरै कुरा राख्या छ हजुर, चिन्नु त पर्यो नि, आफू कोसँग कुरा गर्दैछु भनेर”, मैले भनेँ ! “पिक द नेम, तिम्लाई जुन मन पर्छ त्यही राख”, उसले मलाई नाम छान्ने अधिकार दिई ।

नेपाली टाइप गर्ने सजिलो तरिका

मदन पुरस्कार पुस्तकालयले  २००७  २००३-४ ताका नेपाली युनिकोड किबोर्ड लेआउट, रोमनाइज्ड र ट्रेडिसनल सार्वजनिक गर्यो । नेपाली टाइपिङ (ट्रेडिसनल) जान्दै नजान्ने (कहिले नेपाली टाइप नगरेको) मैले, मदन पुरस्कार पुस्तकालयले सार्वजनिक गरेको रोमनाइज्ड नेपाली युनिकोड किबोर्ड लेआउट कम्प्युटरमा राखेर पहिलो पटक कम्प्युटरमा नेपाली भाषामा लेखेँ । यसविचमा कम्प्युटर तथा मोबाइलको लागि धेरै किसिमका नेपाली किबोर्ड लेआउट तथा एप्सहरु आइसकेकाछन्, तर पनि इन्टरनेट प्रयोगकर्ताहरु नेपाली टाइप गर्नुपर्दा अप्ठ्यारो मान्छन् । मलाई धेरैले सोध्ने गरेको प्रश्न भनेको, "फेसबुकमा कसरी नेपाली टाइप गर्ने?" अत: यो ब्लगमा मदन पुरस्कार पुस्तकालय (मपुपु) ले निर्माण गरेको नेपाली युनिकोड किबोर्ड लेआउट बारे चर्चा गर्दैछु। प्रिती, कान्तिपुर लगायतका 'ट्रु टाइप फन्ट' (ttf) प्रयोग गरेर ट्रेडिसनल लेआउटमा नेपाली टाइप गर्ने प्रयोगकर्ताहरुले, नेपाली ट्रेडिसनल युनिकोड किबोर्ड लेआउट राखेर, इन्टरनेटमा सजिलै सँग नेपालीमा लेख्न सक्छन् । भन्नुको मतलब, तपाईलाई पहिले नै नेपाली टाइपिङ आउँछ भने टाइपिङ गर्ने तरिका उही हुन्छ, उही &q
