Firefox Mobile Is Here

Firefox Mobile has been making some waves in the technology world.  Since it is not the first, but by far the most popular mobile browser platform to hit the market others will be sure to follow.  This is an exciting time for those who love their smartphones.  App developers are going bonkers trying to take their share of what will be the dominant market in only a few years to come.  There will be many more new options coming soon surely both Google Chrome and Microsoft Internet Explorer will be on board soon.

Well actually it has been here for some time, most people have simply never heard of it yet. This is largely because the Firefox mobile browser is only available for the Nokia N900 cellular phone at this time.  You can follow the supported devices here.   You will be able to see when you can download this fan favorite browser to your mobile device or cell phone from watching the Mozilla Supported Device List for Firefox mobile.

You can see what all the new Firefox mobile platform has to offer in this video on techbloq.com : Firefox Mobile Video

Google To Release Their Own Operating System - Chrome OS

The Google Chrome OS project started about a year ago.  This project was only an extension to the existing Google Chrome Browser initially and then they started adding and adding, until they thought that it would be a good idea to go ahead and try to make a full blown OS.   This concept has been driven by open source developers from all over the world and will be sure to be a huge success when the finished product is ready for market.

The process of taking this new operating system from concept to reality has not been a very fast process, but there are so many changes coming around in the web dev world that Google does most likely have bigger fish to fry.  As net-book sales skyrocket, we would not be surprised to see net-books shipping with the Google Chrome OS as early as next year.

If you want to download the Google Chrome OS Beta, it is already available, but at this point there is not a lot to see.  You can go ahead and give it a spin if you want and see what you think of the Next Big Operating System from Google today!
