Browser Face-Off
This
is better review on IE 7 Beta 1, FireFox 1.5 RC1 and Opera 8. Interestingly we
should wait and watch how Flock will attack userbase. Since it is more of Mozilla
code and some add-ons that give you more flexibility to add RSS feeds,
blogging. Here is the review.
Linux is Doomed, Thanks to Microsoft
Gartner, Inc reports that Linux server market is less than 5% compared to Windows
market. Windows market share for server market is 37 percent and Linux is 31.5
percent. Does it mean the Windows Servers competing with Linux/ Linux is all
set to doom. I donโt think we say it that easily at least now. There are few positives
and negatives for both of them. Windows dominated the user with its ease of use
features and Support compared to Linux. Here is the complete write-up

Google Click-to-Call
Google is testing its new strategy to improve its AdWords business. I expected eBay first with its Skype deal and probably integrations might be going. You have to trust Google for this since you are giving your phone number. Advantage is you can directly call the advertiser immediately it appears for you.
You can read FAQ here.
Here is the soure for me to write this.
Blind Study Finds Google Really Does Offer Best Results
I usually donโt get a chance to try on different search
engines other than Google. (Because most of the time I do get results in
Google). Just after reading about blind test I searched for “JACL
Scripting Tutorials”. I chose this search input because of late I came to
know there are no many resources for this and want to see how many are relevant.
Surprisingly, none of the search engines have major relevancy to my search.
After filtering little down I chose Brand ‘Z’ which is Google. The other
two does not have any relevancy in search results at all to pick. How I chose
Brand Z is, one of the results is pointing to IBM website which is fair that WebSphere
uses JACL script, and another result is pointing to tcl, tck tk which is some
what relevant to JACL. So from this Google still stands as friendly search
engine compared to other two. You can try blind search here.
Google Analytics – Yet another failure to meet demand
Google
has its failure with analytics because it could not sustain the demand. I don’t
know why Google should hurry about launching products which cannot sustain more
demand. Google knows that if it is going to release any stupid product it will
have tremendous response and demand to use. Enough home work should be done
before release. From now on at least Google should repair its strategy in
releasing products. Google … Google … learn from mistakes otherwise will be
in soup.
