Finally the long awaited and long rumored Google Browser. Wow what a simplistic and functional design. Google made a breakthrough I would say! Again the core is based on AppleWebKit which gives 78 on the Acid3 test; for the comparison of W3C set standards IE8 beta 1 gives 18 out of 100 so making Chrome a fit and healthy standards supporting browser. Chrome has the Google backbone and also borrows the company’s standard for simplistic and minimal and useable design. It is currently in beta and thus it lacks huge number of features; for starters say and AdBlocker, Popup Blocker and mouse gestures. But again Chrome is in beta and is also open source so it will not be too long before it is all feature packed. The best feature is its page rendering is done super quickly and also not to forgot the way the browser handles the different tabs and pulgins as separate processes so one darn website or ill designed plugin will never crash your web experience. The only downside of Chrome other than being to scarce in features is at times it gets a little big memory hog. But it won’t be such a bothersome for modern systems since most of nowadays ships with bare 2GB minimum. So try it out today and let me know how you feel about the next Google Revolution!!

It seems as if it was just the other day I launched my first website. It was MyLegendSwap.com. The only problem I faced then was deciding a name for my site. Man it was tough :D Then I was a senior in my high school, in other words a 12th grader! I had always wanted to have my own domain on the web from when i was in my 5th grade, but at that time was different. Cost, internet, servers all were a concern and was quite impractically for personal sites back then. Email then was slowly gaining popularity. I got my first email account when I was in 5th grade. it was swapnendu@123india.com. I used to hardly get more than a few mails a month. Internet was slow, floppy discs still trying to dominate and Windows 98se crippled every system. Those were the days of CTRL ALT DEL, if you know what I mean. Finally in the summer of 2006 I got my childhood dream into action and launched my first website. It was the grand day of 4th of July my website dawned.
Then next year in 2007 I changed my hosting server and also renamed my website to JamesUnified.com!

The year passed of so quickly yeah, its July 4 again. The best time of the year. It has been 232 years since the July 4, 1776, an unforgetable day for any American. It has been 232 years United States Of America claimed independence from Great Britain! Each day thousands leave their homeland to experience the American Dream and live in the land of the free and the home of the brave!
In 1777, thirteen guns were fired, once at morning and again as evening fell, on July 4 in Bristol, Rhode Island. Philadelphia celebrated the first anniversary with an official dinner for the Continental Congress, toasts, 13-gun salutes, speeches, prayers, music, parades, troop reviews, and fireworks. It is only in 1941, the US Congress made Independence Day to a paid federal holiday. That was really late right! Well the excitement is on, July 4 is just a few days away, so bring out colors people lets have a blast. God Bless America!!

Wow!! It was massive! The big day; it got the Mozilla servers to the knees. The downloaded number is a massive 9,695,999. That is just a tad above 9.6 million. Man that is huge. The leading nation title being held by United States at above 3 million downloads. All of this in just 24 hours, in making history! This is as massive as it can get. This massive number is only 0.14% of the world’s present population; well it makes you wonder. 9.6 million People in the making of history! Check out the individual region download statistic & the download counter.

History is in making again. Download Day 2008. We had D-day before but this time it is not war! It is by far obvious by now I endorse Firefox as the supreme browser. And it got even better now. It’s Firefox 3. The best Firefox yet and literally I mean it. I was using for the last few months betas and release candidates of Firefox 3 but today finally the final version is out. That is not the only thing that is driving the world crazy now. Firefox is aiming for the Guinness Book of World Records as the most software downloaded in 24 hours. WOW!!! Go ahead download it, be a part of history!

In the last few weeks I was bombarded with multitudes of spam messages sent through the contact form. The entirety of the message consisted of links. I even had to shutdown GBk, my guestbook due to this spam trouble. Things have changed now, GBk has been re-launched and also the contact form is updated. Before you could just click on send and a blank form would be submitted and sent over to me. Then the message could also be unlimited number of characters and was not restricted to nothing but the browser limitation. People submitted forms with invalid email and two letter names. Though the message itself was enormously long. Well gone are those days. I have made a strict limitation of seventy-five character for the message and also invalided out the two letter names and invalid emails. So the bottom line is, to send me a message you need to fill up a proper name, email and restrict your message to less than seventy-five and more than two characters. Neat huh? :D

Soon to be the dawn of JamesUnified.com v2.0 on upcmomming July '08 but.... before that this new design in tribute to the hot summers we are having.... daaam its hot... :D
