I  saw a lot of articles about Google Wave,a creative tool which helps to make some communications to friends easier than ever before.It’s still on the progress of beta stage,so it could only be tried upon invitation.

I got one invitation from Google recently and I went to use it immediately.I think I need some time to watch the video clips of know-how in order to use the service smoothly.Share with your guys here!

I could provide 8 invitations to the friends who are interested in it.If you want to try the fresh stuff,please just drop the words to me.

Ok,I’m going to start my learning program.See you guys!

Firefox Beta 3.6 had come out for several weeks.In fact I had tried it when it firstly launched,but I don’t feel so comfortable on it because quite a lot of add-ons were not compatible and I even met some crashes in one-hour usage.

However,with the help of thousands of beta users,it has been going to run properly and most of functions could work well.Firefox also introduced Add-on Compatibility Reporter which could mention the author of add-ons for any compatibility issues.You could check up the details of the Beta of Firefox 3.6 / Gecko 1.9.2 introducing several new features for users to evaluate:

• (New in this update) A change to how third-party software integrates with Firefox to increase stability.
• (New in this update) The ability to run scripts asynchronously to speed up page load times.
• A mechanism to prevent incompatible software from crashing Firefox.
• Users can now change their browser’s appearance with a single click, with built in support for Personas.
• Firefox 3.6 will alert users about out of date plugins to keep them safe.
• Open, native video can now be displayed full screen, and supports poster frames.
• Support for the WOFF font format.
• Improved JavaScript performance, overall browser responsiveness and startup time.
• Support for new CSS, DOM and HTML5 web technologies.

I’m going to try that again soon.If you want to try it,please go here to download and install it.I hope you will like it too.

Apple always has the most creative ideas on developing their products.In the battle of internet browsers,Apple throws out another excellent work-Safari 4 BETA.

Microsoft spoke out recently that they will stop the general availability of downloading Windows 7 beta on February 10th,2009.The shutdown will take place into 3 phrases over the next few weeks:

• Starting January 27th, the Windows 7 page will be updated with a warning that time is running out on downloading the Windows 7 Beta and that we will be limiting downloads shortly. People will be encouraged to register and start the download of the Windows 7 Beta sooner rather than later.
• February 10th, new downloads of the Windows 7 Beta will no longer be available. People who have already started their Windows 7 Beta download and have not yet finished will still be able to finish their download and are encouraged to do so.
• February 12th, people will no longer be able to complete their download of the Windows 7 Beta. Anyone who hasn’t finished downloading the Windows 7 Beta will be unable to do so.

However,product key will be able to get even after February 12th,2009.In addition,MSDN and TechNet Subscribers are not bound to the above information.

Thus,if you still want to try the fresh tech,you’d hurry up to download it the sooner the better.

If you have installed Windows 7 and been running it in a computer which is running Windows Vista as well,you’ll exactly find that it works much faster than Windows Vista.Why?

You should know that the big problems of Windows Vista are the incompatibility with quite a number of software(well,a bit improvements in SP1) and the high requirement of specs.It avoids some purchasing demand of consumers because it may cost some inconvenience and a price to upgrade the system too.For most people,that is not a worth-to-do thing.Windows 7 is trying to erase this bad history and so make a much popular requirement instead.Let’s see the comparison of minimum recommended specs.

Though you may find the requirements are so similar,from my tests I feel that Windows 7 occupies less physical memory than Windows Vista when both of them are running with those beautiful Aero themes.I’ll post up the screenshots of the real usages later in order to make a detailed analysis.

All right,if you haven’t yet downloaded Windows 7 and had a try,you may refer to my previous step-by-step post and then enjoy it.I hope you will feel good on it.
