Seth H. Weintraub: Google hitting the airwaves with Chrome browser campaign
Google is hitting the airwaves this weekend with a flurry of television
advertising.
They hope to position the Chrome Browser against Firefox, Safari, Opera but
mostly against Internet Explorer which still holds a strong majority of the
Browser market share, even theough it has fallen in recent years. Chrome is
currently in fourth place just above Opera, according to NetApplications data.
See the commercials pasted below.

Seth Weintraub: iPhone Apps and updates must now be 3.0 compliant
Last night, along with the iPhone OS 3 Beta 5 update, Apple told developers that
new iPhone apps would be tested to work properly on the new iPhone OS 3.0. If
they don't work with the new software, they wouldn't get accepted into the App
Store.

Seth H. Weintraub: Google's Eric Schmidt doesn't see board conflict with Apple?
I talked earlier this week on why Google shouldn't be in violation of the
Clayton Anti-trust legislation because Google shares board members with Apple. I
still believe that they aren't in violation.
That doesn't mean sharing board members is necessarily a good idea.

Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols: The Ubuntu and ATI Blues
There's a lot of good stuff in Ubuntu 9.04, but great performance with ATI
graphic chips isn't among its virtues.

Mark Everett Hall: Play with Azure. Win prizes.
