Mozilla Thunderbird 3

February 19th, 2008 | 1 Comment | Posted in Information Technology

As the buzz of Mozilla Firefox 3 goes all around the Internet, which I’m waiting it to be soon a stable version, I’m eager too to see the new release of Mozilla Thunderbird. I read the news at Cnet News that Mozilla is currently developing the next version of Thunderbird. Frankly I’m happy that there is still some news and progress about this good email client application, as Thunderbird seemed to be a stepchild of Mozilla because of all attention to its well know free browser Firefox.

Thunderbird

Some improvement expected to be added on Thunderbird are integration of Lightning calendar add-on and tabbed email UI. Actually you can start trying the calendar add-on by downloading it and install it on Thunderbird, which I already did :) I haven’t tried it further than installing it and look around, my first impression is “this is good”. Before I was installing a calendar add-on which integrates Mozilla Sunbird (a standalone calendar application) but the integration doesn’t look as nice as Lightning does. More »

After rejecting Microsoft’s offer, Yahoo still need to find a way to solve the problem. Another article said that Yahoo thinking about making cooperation with Google, to serve ads on Yahoo search page in exchange of big revenue from the advertiser.

Yahoo!: Yahoo Always Have Other Options

February 6th, 2008 | 1 Comment | Posted in Information Technology, Internet

With all the news on the internet about Microsoft will acquire Yahoo, I’m quite shocked. How come Yahoo can collapse? Some news site said that Yahoo can’t compete with Google on online advertising market.

Many people dislike the fact that Microsoft will buy Yahoo, I don’t really like it too. Most people concern about privacy, market domination, monopoly, etc. I think it’s true. If Microsoft does buy Yahoo, surely Microsoft will monopolize both desktop and internet as they have dominant MS Windows and Yahoo have lot users of Yahoo Messenger and Yahoo Mail. More »
