Introducing Mozilla Geode

October 8, 2008 · Leave a Comment

 

Mozilla introduced a new feature for browsers, Mozilla Geode. What is Mozilla Geode?

…an experimental add-on to explore geolocation in Firefox 3 ahead of the implementation of geolocation in a future product release. Geode provides an early implementation of the W3C Geolocation specification so that developers can begin experimenting with enabling location-aware experiences using Firefox 3 today, and users can tell us what they think of the experience it provides. It includes a single experimental geolocation service provider so that any computer with WiFi can get accurate positioning data.

Hope it will become part of the regular browser in the near future.

Gmail Labs New Features

October 7, 2008 · Leave a Comment

We are heavy Gmail users and we love the new features at “labs”. Which one? “The Mail Goggles” and the “Mark as Read” button.

Pretty cool and useful.

About the Mail Goggles – “Google strives to make the world’s information useful. Mail you send late night on the weekends may be useful but you may regret it the next morning. Solve some simple math problems and you’re good to go. Otherwise, get a good night’s sleep and try again in the morning. After enabling this feature, you can adjust the schedule in the “General” settings page.”

About the Mark as Read button – “Tired of spending all that effort to click on the more actions menu every time you want to mark messages as read without reading them? Now just enable this lab and that is just a button click away!”
