Chrome 15 beta slashed Firefox latest updates


Rapid pace of development of Google shows no signs of slowing down as it rolls a new stable version of Chrome v14 this time. Unlike Firefox, which is also accelerated the release process, Chrome seems to benefit from high turnover, while Firefox will suffer for this.

The big addition of chromium are 14 Native Client, a new way to run C and C + + code in the browser. Native Client provides a new technology of sand boxing, which is designed to protect the user's browser and malicious code. Even if the Native Client, or sodium chloride, has only been stable, it is not a new technique, introduced three years ago.
The idea with the Native Client is able to change the browser in a rich development environment and browser-based applications, including games. In particular, the Native Client is aimed at 3D and video editing market, with the normal JavaScript is not strong enough.Sandbox in the Native Client limits how and what an application can write. Sandbox also prevents the access code for the program outside the defined area.
The Native Client is included in the browser plug-in API called Pepper.
While Google has touted Native Client to be a major step forward for the Internet, the leaders of other browsers are not so enamoured. Decision makers like Opera and Mozilla feel that switching to Native Client is a step away from the existing Web standards, in turn, undermines the multi-platform of the Internet.
In any case, Google has created a new course, and this has already been made available in 32 - and 64-bit. The company is apparently working on a portable version of the Native Client for other platforms.
For Apple users there are also some changes in the latest version is chrome 14 download worthy. Among them is the inclusion of "overlapping scrolls bars" Leon appear only when the user scrolls. There is also initial support for full screen mode.
Speed-wise usually sends Chrome promises to the most popular benchmarking tools for the visualization of Chrome is one of the fastest browser around.
Chrome  is already in its beta Chrome 15and 16 is in the development of channels.

Microsoft releases next browser IE10 Preview


Microsoft has released a new Internet Explorer 10 preview, the second pre-release of Internet Explorer 10 designed to give developers access to the new technologies that Internet Explorer 10 will deliver. The new version includes support for a bunch of new specifications, enabling better support for drag and drop, form validation, positioning of page elements, and more. As with prior preview releases, Microsoft has also provided a number of demo sites to show off new capabilities, and new test cases to demonstrate exact conformance with the HTML5 specifications.
This update comes 11 weeks after the first preview release, making it a little ahead of schedule; Internet Explorer 9 previews came out roughly every eight weeks, but for Internet Explorer 10, Microsoft is aiming at one every three months.
Probably the most significant inclusion for Web developers is support for the Web Worker API. Conventionally, browser JavaScript has been strictly single-threaded, with no facility to perform computations in the background or use multicore processors. Web Workers change this, by allowing multiple scripts to execute simultaneously, opening the door to pages that are both more responsive and contain more complex scripting than is possible without Web Workers.
