The big news of the day? Google announces Google Chrome, a WebKit (yes the very same Webkit that Safari uses) based-browser. As you can see from the example to the right, Google's browser will have tabs on the top and a speed dial front page like Opera.

I was in my friend Omar Shaheen’s office earlier this afternoon, and as he is now a big wig magazine publisher and owner of FACT, he was given a new toy by Zain to check out. Omar was kind enough to allow me to have a shooftie for a few minutes. Unfortunately, he wasn’t that keen on letting me walk away with it, even though I promised I would write a comparison article with the ...

All-in-one website design tool Coda has been revved by its overlords at Panic, adding a bunch of new features and fixing some bugs to boot.

They’ve rolled in yet another app’s worth of functionality in the form of ...

English needs a new word. A new word that I never really needed when living in the UK, but which is simply missing from daily language needed when living in this part of the world, with its mixtures of cultures, standards, rituals and practices. This word, an adjective, should describe something that's both completely unbelievable, but which is also completely believable, both at the same time. For example, you read an article in the paper ...

Despite Apple’s enterprise nod with the iPhone OS 2.0 feature set there are two fairly glaring omissions that make it difficult to use the iPhone in a corporate setting: the lack of encryption of the file system as a whole (or even just the message store) and the lack of available on-board virus scanners for the device (despite promises from prominent vendors). Without the former, it is nigh impossible to store client or customer data ...

Designing using alpha-transparent PNGs makes life so much easier and cooler designs possible. As we are all painfully aware, IE 6 and under do not support them. They display… but any areas of alpha transparancy get turned into nasty blue-gray and are anything but transparent. There is a way to force IE to respect the alpha transparency though, commonly referred to as the PNG hack. There are various methods, all boiling down to the use ...

It feels like we just wrapped up the last Apple security kerfuffle, now it appears another is brewing on the horizon. It’s been noted that the MobileMe web interface does not encrypt all of its traffic with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL, the same technology that protects your personal information when you’re shopping online). Rich Mogull gives a good overview of the situation over at TidBITS, explaining that while Apple does encrypt your username and password ...
