Fennec, the Mozilla mobile browser

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

Ars Technica just wrote an interesting article about their experience using Mozilla’s mobile browser which its codename is Fennec. It’s still on their early stage of development so we can’t give it a try. Thanks to Ars Technica for following screen capture of Fennec Mobile Browser:

Fennec Prototype

They reported that Fennec suit on Nokia N810 for the showcase. There’s no further information on which platform they will play. Will it be Linux, Windows Mobile, Symbian OS or even Java based?

Mozilla said that they want to ”transfer” the feel of browsing using Mozilla Firefox into this handheld browser and featuring synchronization between Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Fennec.

Based on Wikipedia, Fennec is a small fox found in the Sahara Desert of North Africa (excluding the coast) and in some parts of Arabia.

Opera MiniFrom Opera Mini’s official blog saying that new beta for Opera Mini is coming soon. They’re not giving us list of new improvements but they gave a clue that the new improvements are wanted by most users.

There’s no statement about the release date. All we can do is just waiting for the next information, for both Opera Mini and Opera Dragonfly, hopefully.

Moved to Wordpress

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

After a few years using my own blog script –yeah, bleedy script, written from scratch– I finally decided to use Wordpress for this blog.

There are a lot of things to do such as syntax highlight, re-arrange the messy source code inside a blog post etc. But one for sure, you can still access any post using the old URL.

Yes, the URLs are not changed.
