    Initial thoughts on PayPal's new developer platform 30 July, 2009 04:50:00

    Individual sellers are highly unlikely to need PayPal X
    I just finished watching the PayPal Platform Preview, which was PayPal's official announcement of their new open development platform (it was previously leaked on TechCrunch). Officially called "PayPal X," the platform was presented by Osama Bedier (VP of platform and emerging technology) in broad, almost utopian terms, as something that would unleash waves of innovation transforming the way goods and services are delivered. Maybe.

    Review: Firefox 3.5 makes browsing faster, easier and more fun 02 July, 2009 07:55:00

    Mozilla puts Firefox 3.5 ahead of the browser pack with better performance, improved tab handling and nifty new features.
    The just-released version 3.5 of Firefox is a winner, offering significantly faster Web browsing, better tab handling, a host of interface tweaks and, like just about every other browser on the planet, a "porn mode." If you already use Firefox you'll want to upgrade right away. If you're not a Firefox user, this version represents a very good opportunity to give the browser a test run.

    Microsoft NAP: NAC for the rest of us? 15 May, 2009 06:41:00

    Client support is included in Windows Vista, Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3), and the Windows 7 Release Candidate
    Microsoft NAP is an effective network gatekeeper for Windows endpoints, but initial configuration is complex, policies are basic, and reporting is absent. NAP is best used as a core technology deployed in combination with others for a more complete, manageable, and scalable solution.

    First look: Internet Explorer 8.0 loves add-ons, search and acceleration 20 March, 2009 16:19:00

    Speed boosts and new navigation features make for a better browser
    Amid increasing pressure from competing products from the likes of Google, Mozilla and Apple, Microsoft has released the biggest upgrade to its flagship Web browser in two years with Internet Explorer 8 (IE 8). TechWorld takes the most popular browser on the Internet for a spin and the result is a more extensible and powerful Web experience.

    New Day dawns for Web CMS 05 December, 2008 08:44:00

    Day Communique WCM 5.1 impresses with snappy GUI and rich features for business users, easy setup and management for techs
    Day Software may be best known for its CRX (Content Repository Extreme) Java Content Repository. But after testing the general release of its Communiqué 5.1 (CQ5) modular CMS, I think it's time to get reintroduced to the rest of what the company offers. This notable Web content manager will impress business users with drag-and-drop page design, in-context content editing, and a component library that includes Flash elements, form builders, and Google Gadget support. And it will impress IT with a nice complement of enterprise bells and whistles -- from integrated BPM to hot backup, disaster recovery, and clustering capabilities.

    Silverlight, for real this time 19 November, 2008 08:58:00

    Microsoft's RIA framework offers client-side programming with .Net languages and tools, plus high performance
    Microsoft's answer to Adobe Flash and Flex and several other RIA (rich Internet application) and AJAX frameworks, Silverlight arrived with a flourish just over one year ago. Silverlight 1.0 manipulated its multimedia-savvy, WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) user interface using JavaScript. Silverlight 1.1, which added support for compiled .Net languages and supported more of the .Net API, was available at that time only as an alpha test.
