Do you think that it is you who are in-charge of controlling a computer? Think again! There is the trustworthy computer mouse, which you can move anywhere on the desktop, evoking up your music library or Internet browser at the slightest wave. Youfeel like a director while using your desktop or laptop but there is a lot going with in the computer and the the real man who handles all the task is the operating system.
Most of the desktop or laptop PCs come pre-loaded with Windows operating system. Macintosh computers come pre-loaded with Mac OS X operating system which is developed by Apple. The first thing loaded into the computer system is the operating system because a computer is useless without the operating system.
More recently, small computers have also started using the operating systems instead of any other software. Like Microsoft has launched different versions of Windows Mobile which is being used in mobiles such as Apple's iPhone, Microsoft's Zune and many more. If you like to experiment with electronic devices, you must be well aware with the facts that that operating systems are now available on many of the devices which we use every day like cell phones, wireless access points, digital players etc. The small computers used in all these daily use electronic devices are so powerful that they are now capable of running an operating system and all those applications that are used on a computer. The modern cell phone is now more powerful than a desktop computer, so this improvement makes sense and is a natural development.
The operating system organizes and controls hardware and software to make that device behave in a pliable but predictable way. For devices, an operating system creates the capability to:
serve for different purposes
interact with users in more complex ways
keep up with requirements that change over time

· When a website has a feed, an figure appears on the appropriate of the omnibox (page action). Beat on it opens the augment in Google Reader. Thus after subscribing you can appearance it in GR.
· When you cross anon to an RSS or Atom page (like this one: http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/feeds/news.rss) commonly Chrome displays a mess.

Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox Updates Fix Bugs
Mozilla and Google both fixed critical vulnerabilities in their browsers.
Mozilla plugged the security holes in the Firefox browser. Mozilla fixed 11 vulnerabilities in a June 11 update to Firefox. More than half of the bugs were labeled as "critical." Three of the critical bugs were in the browser’s rendering JavaScript engines and in certain circumstances result in memory corruption that could result in arbitrary code execution, according to the Mozilla advisory.
On June 9, Google plugged two security holes with the release of Google Chrome browser version 2.0172.31. The fixes address two problems in Webkit. The first is a memory corruption issue in Webkit’s handling of recursion in certain DOMevent handlers. If a user visits a malicious Website, hackers could potentially execute code in Google’s Chrome sandbox. There was also an issue in WebKit’s handling of drag events that could lead to the disclosure of data when content is dragged over a malicious Web page.

Google Chrome for Mac and Linux
Finally Google Chrome browser is out for Mac and Linux on Thursday, June 04, 2009 but it the browser is in its developer preview version. It’s not ready to use as it is not complete yet.
"In order to get more feedback from developers, we have early developer channel versions of Google Chrome for Mac OS X and Linux, but whatever you do, please DON'T DOWNLOAD THEM," Google product managers Mike Smith and Karen Grunberg said in a blog post, evidently trying to employ a little reverse psychology. "Unless of course you are a developer or take great pleasure in incomplete, unpredictable, and potentially crashing software."
Google's open-source browser has been a Windows-only product, and some Mac and Linux users have been clamoring for their own version. Google coders have been working to rebuild some Chrome components, such as its graphical interface and its sandbox that isolates different processes from each other, to move beyond just Windows operating system.
Google offers three versions of Chrome: stable, beta, and developer preview.

Google airs Google Chrome on TV
Google has taken a new initiative to promote Google Chrome browser. Earlier there was news that Google chrome browser would come pre installed in Computers, just to increase its usage and popularity. I have Google Chrome installed at my office where I use Microsoft windows XP and at my home as well where I use Microsoft windows vista. I think the speed on the both the operating system is like lightning.
Google plans to make its first foray into the old-fashioned world of television advertising with spots promoting its Chrome browser this weekend.
Google Japan had already released a 30-second video promoting Google Chrome browser on YouTube, but the company will distribute that video through the Google TV Ads network this weekend as an experiment to see if it can drum up interest in Chrome, its new browser. Google said it's using the research it has done on measuring the relevance of television ads in order to place the Chrome ad appropriately.
Chrome was also featured as part of a huge ad on the front page of The New York Times' Web site Friday, with several different videos promoting the browser. Those are also available, of course, on YouTube.
For a consumer brand of sits size, Google does relatively little advertising. It put Chrome ads on YouTube in January, but "house ads" are a little different than network television exposure. Likewise, T-Mobile advertises the "G1 with Google" in hyping up the Android-powered G1, but that's not exactly the same as making Google the focus of the ad.

Google Chrome Caught in Vulnerability Web
Google updates Google Chrome to fix a security vulnerability that would allow hackers to launch universal cross-site scripting attacks. The flaw affects users with the Chrome Web browser installed who visit a malicious Web page with Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The Google Chrome Web browser has found itself at the center of a security issue that could lead to cross-site scripting attacks.
Google Chrome has been updated to 1.0.154.59 to fix security vulnerability in the handling of ChromeHTML URIs (Uniform Resource Identifiers) that allows an attacker to bypass the Same Origin Policy for any site and enumerate victim's files and directories.
"If a user has Google Chrome installed, visiting an attacker-controlled Web page in Microsoft Internet Explorer could have caused Google Chrome to launch, open multiple tabs and load scripts that run after navigating to a URL of the attacker's choice," the advisory stated.
The vulnerability was discovered by IBM security researcher Roi Saltzman, who noted in a blog post that the processing of URL protocol handlers has been an ongoing issue with Internet Explorer. A similar situation was uncovered in 2007 involving Internet Explorer and Firefox.

Google Toolbar updated with My Location
Google has updated and added new features to its new Toolbar 6 Beta with the new feature of My location which is similar to Google latitude services which were launched in February. Google has already launched it’s my location feature in mobile phones. With My Location enabled, Toolbar searches are matched to your computer's IP address: everything you seek is now also seeking you. It can scour your Wi-Fi IP address as well, making it easier to find a "better" Starbucks from your current Starbucks.
You can easily download this feature on your Microsoft windows. Beware attempting to access My Location from behind a firewall. Google Toolbar with My Location features is oddly only available on Internet Explorer 6.0+. But not on Google Chrome.

Google updated Chrome browser to boost speed
Google has updated the development build of the Google Chrome with a new feature which allows editing thumbnails on a new tab page. Earlier Chrome use to show the recently closed website on a thumbnail, now the new tab option is embedded in the contextual menu on the tab bar, as well as Undo Tab Close feature. But unfortunately, user can’t disable tab thumbnails on a new tab page completely, leaving only the list of recently closed tabs, windows and past searches.
It’s not over yet, Google made little more minor adjustment about how Chrome handles text coping. For computer security purposes, it’s no longer possible to cut or copy from a password text-field. The new Ctrl+Shift+Arrow key combo switches change in text direction in right-to-left user interfaces. The browser also support Ctrl +Shift text alignment based on which side of the keyboard those keys are pressed. Finally, this development version of Chrome fixed several bugs related to Google Calendar widget, text disappearance in certain web apps, mouse wheel and vertical scrollbar, form auto fill and history deletion while in Incognito mode.

Browser Security Handbook Made Public
Google has released its own take on the nature of browser security -- and the ways in which browsers lack it.
The Browser Security Handbook -- which apparently began life as a wiki -- begins with a historical look at what browsers do and how they do it, and builds from that foundation to a detailed and fairly technical look at security concerns, and an examination of the lack of consistency among browsers that, on the surface, appear to be doing the same things.
The text takes Microsoft's Internet Explorer (6and 7), Mozilla's Firefox (2 and 3), Safari, Opera, as well as Google's own Chrome and its mobile browser, Android, and rates them against various tests and security concerns ranging from navigation to same-origin policies (rules regarding content loaded into the browser from sites other than the one currently being viewed) and plenty of in-between. Whether it’s a browser security issue or a computer security issue, contact us at 1 800 602 586, we will help you solve your problem online or by taking the remote of your computer.
As noted in a Google blog last month, the company's rationale for making the material public -- the implication is that some or even much of this was generated for internal use, although that's not completely clear from the brief introduction -- is to "capture the risks and security considerations present for general populace of users accessing the web with default browser settings in place."
As a baseline, this is a good thing, but as the Handbook's author, Michal Zalweski notes, browsers, and particular their plug-ins and enhancements, are remarkably malleable, with many of user-added bells and whistles setting the stage for setting off (or failing to) alarm bells and whistles when they "interfere with existing features in non-obvious ways."
