Firefox had 24.07% of the recorded usage share of web browsers as of October 2009, making it the second-most popular browser worldwide, after Internet Explorer, which is the factory default browser on all Windows computers. In 5 months, Firefox has gathered steam and now owns more than 25% of usage share of web browsers closing the gap between it and IE. To display web pages, Firefox uses the Gecko layout engine, which implements some current web standards plus a few features which are intended to anticipate likely additions to the standards. Firefox includes tabbed browsing, a spell checker, incremental find, live bookmarking, a download manager, and an integrated search system that uses the user's desired search engine. Functions can be added through add-ons created by third-party developers, the most popular of which include Adblock Plus, Video DownloadHelper, NoScript, Personas, FlashGot, and Greasemonkey, along with many others. Firefox runs on various versions of Microsoft Windows (version 3.5 supports Windows Vista and XP; although not officially supported as of November 2009, Firefox is compatible with Windows 7), Mac OS X (10.4 or later officially supported), most Linux distributions, and many other Unix-like operating systems. Its current stable release branch is version 3.5, first released on June 30th, 2009. Firefox's source code is free software, released under a tri-license of GPL/LGPL/MPL. 2009-06-10T06:08:11Z 66053 0 Very clean interface and very fast JavaScript performance. While this still has its problems from time to time, it is without a doubt, better than IE (as is every browser) But since the release of AdSweep, I love this browser even more. While I prefer AdBlock Plus over it, it still manages to get the job done. Google Chrome is being updated every single day, and you can download the latest build at any time. While it still manages to crash on me every now and again, the speed at which it renders pages more than makes up for the time lost restarting the application. 274471697 2008-09-15T16:11:21Z 144237 2010-11-28T14:17:42Z Chromium 3155 2009-12-05T17:17:23Z http://www.chromium.org http://wakoopa.com/software/chromium http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/142/604/normal.png?1252455640 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/142/604/thumb.png?1252455640 74465 The Chromium Authors http://wakoopa.com/developers/the-chromium-authors Check what's happening on the web 1 Browsers http://wakoopa.com/categories/internet/browsers mac win linux Chromium is an open-source web browser project from Google, and a number of other contributors, that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.

It was released for Windows, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 in 2007. The game was announced in 1998 as a sequel to the original Team Fortress mod for Quake, but has since been through various concepts and designs. In 1999, the game appeared to be deviating from the original Team Fortress and Valve's own Team Fortress Classic mod for Half-Life by heading toward a more realistic and militaristic style of gameplay, but the design metamorphosed further over the game's nine-year development and game engine switch. The final rendition of Team Fortress 2 bears more resemblance to the original Team Fortress and Team Fortress Classic games, and sports a cartoon-like visual style, based on the art of J. C. Leyendecker, Dean Cornwell and Norman Rockwell following a popular trend in recent CGI films (in particular, films recently made by Pixar/Disney, such as The Incredibles). The lack of information or apparent progress for six years of the game's development caused it to be labeled as vaporware, and it was regularly featured in Wired News' annual vaporware list among other ignominies. The game has received critical acclaim and several awards since its release. 2009-06-10T06:01:42Z 66043 0 Scored my copy for $24.99 off steam during it's sale week. Excellent game, although I tend to get our team killed as fast as possible when it comes time to play Survivors since I find them highly boring.

The game has been built using Valve's Source engine. Left 4 Dead pits four human playable or AI controlled survivors of an apocalyptic pandemic against hordes of aggressive "Infected" in a cinematic backdrop in which the players "star" as each character in a fictional movie (ie. No Mercy.) The Survivors' goal is to help each other make it through various scenarios to safety. The Infected are controlled by an AI that dynamically balances difficulty and mood depending on the players' progress and situation. In an alternate game mode, human players can control up to four mutated Boss Infected with special abilities and cooperate to stop the Survivor players. 2009-05-17T08:57:59Z 59855 0 Microsoft really revamps Paint in Windows 7. 42503067 2007-04-22T17:07:54Z 189 2019-10-15T21:26:24Z Paint 22068 2009-12-06T11:27:31Z http://www.microsoft.com http://wakoopa.com/software/paint http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/171/052/normal.png?1260098847 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/171/052/thumb.png?1260098847 13908 Microsoft Corporation http://wakoopa.com/developers/microsoft-corporation 31 Image Editing http://wakoopa.com/categories/design/image-editing mac win Microsoft Paint (formerly Paintbrush for Windows) is a simple graphics painting program that has been included with almost all versions of Microsoft Windows since its first release.
