Google Project 10 to the 100

¢mindfuckx:iconmindfuckx: reports, September 25
"At Google, we don't believe we have the answers, but we do believe the answers are out there. Maybe in a lab, or a company, or a university -- but maybe not.

Maybe the answer that helps somebody is in your head, in something you've observed, some notion that you've been fiddling with, some small connection you've noticed, some old thing you have seen with new eyes.
If you have an idea that you believe would help somebody, we want to hear about it. We're looking for ideas that help as many people as possible, in any way, and we're committing the funding to launch them. You can submit your ideas and help vote on ideas from others. Final idea selections will be made by an advisory board."

Google will donate a $10 million sponsorship to the top 5 ideas.
So what are you still doing here ?

Safari Public Beta 3 for Windows Released

`dancewiththesky:icondancewiththesky: reports, June 11, 2007
The third version of Safari, Apple's Web browser that was available only on Mac OS X, is now available for download (in beta) for Microsoft Windows XP and Vista, as well (the installer refused to work on any version less than Windows 2000.) Advertised as a fast, elegant and standard-compliant, Apple's Web browser has now joined iTunes as official ambassadors for Apple's OS X on Windows. This is especially great news for Web developers and designers, as well, wishing to test their work on Safari without direct or remote access to a Mac.

Safari is based on free/open Webkit rendering engine which in turn is based on KDE's KHTML rendering engine but with (now relatively) a lot of changes. The developers of next version of KDE -- KDE 4 -- are now researching the feasibility of merging the two projects, thus unifying the rendering engines in Safari and Konqueror.

I couldn't (so far) get the Windows version of Safari on GNU/Linux using Wine because of some DLL errors. Still too early to tell if there are going to be any possible workarounds.

yea I know it's beta, but considering the amount of crashes, it should be alpha or something.
I love macs, that's why I downloaded it in the first place. ^^

I know it's beta but the fact that it crashes upon any attempt to interact with its user interface is just bad. =p That's not what a beta, let away a third beta, should work like.

Several parts of the technology used are just landing their first feet on Window (while they have been stable for years on Unix-like operating systems, including OS X,) so I guess this wasn't totally unexpected.

(Oh and I think it's the first beta of the third version. I mistakenly wrote the title in a misleading away,I should read as "Safari 3 Public Beta", sorry ^^; )
