Chrome to ditch unique ID, sort of
In a recent white paper on security in Chrome, Google let it slip that one of the most controversial features it's added to the Chromium source code will be going away after the first program update check. The white paper (PDF) states that the "unique ID," which Google says it introduced to Chrome as a way to keep track of installation success, will be deleted after the program checks for updates for the first time. This means that if you run Chrome immediately after installing, the ID will be deleted within minutes of a successful install.
Google reiterated previous statements in the white paper that it uses the randomly-generated identification tag to keep track of an installation's success and that it isn't associated with any of the user's personal information. However, the unique ID has been a lightning rod to privacy concerns despite a lack of evidence proving claims that the company had been using it to collect personally identifiable data.
Until the change is implemented, users can install the UnChrome add-on, which will remove the ID for them. It is also located in the Local State file in the Chrome installation folder (C:\User\[Name]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome for Vista and Windows 7 users) as user_experience_metrics.user_idkey.
While there are still concerns about Google and data privacy issues, it's telling that Google chose to respond to this largely symbolic stress point rather than tackle more serious issues. The white paper also points out Chrome's privacy behavior and options for the Omnibar, 404 errors that redirect to google.com, local storage of the phishing and malware blacklist, promotional tags, and usage statistics. There are few changes, if any, in those fields, and the white paper serves more as a reminder that they're there than anything else.

Four awesome alarm clock apps
The aptly named Alarm Clock app offers a bit more versatility than the standard Clock app.
(Credit: iHandySoft, Inc.)During a recent spring cleaning, my wife and I wondered aloud why either of us needed an alarm clock on our nightstands.
After every, my iPhone and her iPod Touch both have a perfectly good alarm feature. What's more, the App Store is home to hundreds of alarm-clock apps--many of which are pretty slick.
With that in mind, here are four "alarming" apps that aim to make your mornings a little nicer:
1. Alarm Clock Free Just the basics. Alarm Clock Free lets you pick from an assortment of alarm sounds, any of which can "fade in" rather than blast at full volume. I especially like the oversize snooze/off buttons. The app doubles as a big LCD clock, great for folks who have nightstand iPod docks. Also, the 99-cent Pro version lets you wake up to a selected playlist, podcast, or even audiobook, rather than just generic sounds.
2. Public Radio App I've long been a fan of this public-radio-streaming gem, arguably the best in its class. Two features make it even more appealing: a snooze timer (so you can fall asleep to your favorite show) and an alarm (so you can wake up to, say, NPR's "Morning Edition"). Well worth the $2.99 price of admission.
3. snooze Cycle I am NOT a morning person--perhaps because I'm waking up at the wrong time during my body's natural snooze cycles. The snooze Cycle app analyzes your nighttime movements and wakes you in your lightest snooze phase, thus helping you feel more refreshed in the morning. Haven't tried it myself, but check out Jason Parker's snooze Cycle review. For 99 cents, I might just give the app a whirl. (Note: This one's for iPhones only; the Touch is no longer supported.)
4. Wakeupcall.tv I'm not sure I understand the logic of an alarm app that plays a video, but I suppose it's a good choice for folks who immediately flip on the TV in the morning. Wakeupcall.tv streams a two-minute newscast by former "Daily Buzz" host Andrea Jackson. You can look the $1.99 app in action in the video below.
Before you go, however, hit the comments and let me know if you've found any other alarm apps you'd recommend!

Microsoft races to plug IE hole after exploit code released
(Credit:
Microsoft )
Microsoft said on Friday it is testing a patch to fix a new hole in Internet Explorer 6 and IE 7 following the release of exploit code on the Internet.
With the announcement it seems increasingly likely that the company will be issuing a patch for the hole before the next Patch Tuesday in about four weeks, if the testing of the patch goes quickly.
Microsoft warned about the hole, which it said was being targeted in attacks and could allow an attacker to take control of a computer, in an advisory on Tuesday. The next day, Israeli researcher Moshe Ben Abu released exploit code for the vulnerability after using clues in a McAfee blog post to find existing exploit code and pinpointing the weakness from there.
"We have seen speculation that Microsoft might release an update for this issue out of band. I can tell you that we are working difficult to produce an update which is now in testing," Jerry Bryant, senior security communications manager guide at Microsoft, wrote in a post on the Microsoft Security Response middle blog.
"This is a critical and time-intensive step of the process as the update must be tested against every affected versions of Internet Explorer on every supported versions of Windows. Additionally, each supported language version needs to be tested as well as testing against thousands of third party applications," he wrote. "We never rule out the possibility of an out-of-band update. When the update is ready for broad distribution, we will make that decision based on customer needs."
Microsoft included workaround information in its initial advisory on the hole, which does not affect IE 8, and on Friday updated Security Advisory 981374 to add more information on workarounds following Ben Abu's work.
"With today's update, we have added a Microsoft Fix It to automate this workaround for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 customers," Bryant said. "As always, customers should test this thoroughly before deploying as certain functionality that depends on the peer factory class, such as printing from Internet Explorer and the use of Web folders, may be affected."

Open Question: Why are GOP officials so disdainful of their own voters and supporters here on Yahoo and elsewhere?
Exclusive: RNC document mocks donors, plays on 'fear' By: Ben Smith March 3, 2010 04:23 PM EST The Republican National Committee plans to lift money this election cycle through an aggressive campaign capitalizing on “fear” of President Barack Obama and a promise to "keep the country from trending toward socialism." The strategy was detailed in a confidential party fundraising presentation, obtained by POLITICO, which also outlines how “ego-driven” wealthy donors can be tapped with offers of access and “tchochkes.” The presentation was delivered by RNC Finance Director Rob Bickhart to top donors and fundraisers at a party retreat in Boca Grande, Florida on February 18, a source at the gathering said. In neat PowerPoint pages, it lifts the curtain on the often-cynical terms of political marketing, displaying an air of disdain for the party’s donors that is usually confined to the barroom conversations of political operatives. The presentation explains the Republican fundraising in simple terms. "What can you sell when you do not have the White home, the home, or the Senate...?" it asks. The answer: "keep the country from trending toward Socialism!” Manipulating donors with crude caricatures and playing on their fears is hardly unique to Republicans or to the RNC – Democrats raised millions off George W. Bush in similar terms – but rarely is it practiced in such cartoonish terms. One page, headed “The bad Empire,” pictures Obama as the Joker from Batman, while home Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leaders Harry Reid are depicted as Cruella DeVille and Scooby Doo, respectively. The document, which two Republican sources said was prepared by the party’s finance staff, comes as Chairman Michael Steele struggles to retain the trust and allegiance of major donors, who can give as much as $30,400 a year to the party. below Steele, the RNC has shifted toward a reliance on tiny donors, but the document reveals extensive, confidential details of the strategy for luring wealthy checkwriters, which range from luxury retreats in California wine country to tickets to a professional battle in Las Vegas. The 72-page document was provided to POLITICO by a Democrat, who said a difficult copy had been left in the hotel hosting the $2,500-a-head retreat, the Gasparilla Inn & Club. Sources at the event said the presentation was delivered by Bickhart and by the RNC Finance Chairman, Peter Terpeluk, a former ambassador to Luxembourg below President George W. Bush. The RNC reacted with alarm to a question about it Wednesday, emailing major donors to warn them of a reporter’s question, and distancing Steele from its contents. “The document was used for a fundraising presentation Chairman Steele did not attend, nor had he seen the document,” RNC Communications Director Doug Heye said in an email. “Fundraising documents are often controversial. “Obviously, the Chairman disagrees with the language and finds the use of such imagery to be unacceptable. It will not be used by the Republican National Committee – in any capacity – in the future,” Heye said. The most unusual section of the presentation is a set of six slides headed “RNC Marketing 101.” The presentation divides fundraising into two traditional categories, direct marketing and major donors, and lays out the details of how to approach each group. The tiny donors who are the targets of direct marketing are described below the heading “Visceral Giving.” Their motivations are listed as “fear;” “Extreme negative feelings toward existing Administration;” and “Reactionary.” Major donors, by contrast, are treated in a column headed “Calculated Giving.” Their motivations include: “Peer to Peer Pressure”; “access”; and “Ego-Driven.” The slide also allows that donors may have more honorable motives, including “Patriotic Duty.” A major Republican donor described the state of the RNC’s relationship with major donors as “disastrous,” with veteran givers beginning to abandon the committee, which is becoming increasingly reliant on tiny donors. The party’s average contribution in 2009, according to the document, was just $40, and the shift toward a financial reliance on the grassroots may help explain Steele’s increasingly strident tone toward the Obama Administration. While the crude portrayal of Obama may be - as Steele ‘s spokesman put it - “unacceptable,” other elements of the presentation may be of equal interest to close political observers. The RNC plans to lift $8.6 million from major donors alone in 2010, less than 10% of its total 2009 fundraising take, which was primarily from tiny donors." The middle of that plan is an extensive, and colorful, schedule of events. Along with traditional fundraisers with conservative luminaries including Weekly Standard Editor Bill Kristol and former presidential candidate Steve Forbes, the party plans to lift $80,000 for a trip to Lond

Open Question: What is God really promising Christians?
I know Christians look forward to going to heaven, but what is heaven exactly? I've read a lot of descriptions which every basically sound like heaven is an eternal voyage on a luxury cruise boat with a seat at Jesus's captain's table. Angels (I imagine them dressed like Gopher on The adore Boat, only with wings) are there to attend to your every need. There is endless food, entertainment, no responsibility, and close proximity to the divine. In some descriptions, there is harp music, probably at Sunday brunch. The problem is, none of this is biblical. As close as this atheist can tell, every God promises is "eternal life" and "trust me, you'll adore it." How do you know you won't spend eternity in servitude? Or in New Jersey?

Open Question: The TNA is not the only organization that is firm on demands is it?
There are other parties that are firm on demands that the TNA which is a puppet of the LTTE give up LTTE terrorist leaders and funds and let the innocent Tamil speaking people have the freedom that they have already determined for themselves to live in an integrated Sri Lanka free of the violence and utter disregard that they have experienced below certain TNA politicians for their well-being or future. A very crucial part of the justified demands is that the TNA as well as organizations abroad that have supported LTTE terrorism make honest overtures toward a peace process including turning over LTTE assets held abroad. http://beta.thehindu.com/news/international/article244954.ece The TNA is chock full of persons of dual or foreign nationalities whilst the PEOPLES of Sri Lanka share no such luxury and are left to suffering and death whilst the TNA pontificate in their foreign "homelands". http://beta.thehindu.com/news/international/article244954.ece I certainly do not owe you anything for killing my peoples on my lands for they are every my peoples. Before there was ever a king named Vijaya there was an Empress named Kuveni wasn't there? http://www.srilankaguardian.org/2010/02/… And her dad the Emperor put her to reign over every her male relatives. There is no doubt that with an empire and many relations that Vijaya was only a administrator (ruled a seat) for a period until Kuveni left Vijaya that her administrative head seat moved with her line. Kuveni was famous and still well known from the Africas to China as the Golden Empress and the Black Maddona and is depicted historically and in ancient arts. 1 month ago Her government was semi-federal and there was great growth because unlike her previous concubine's administration it was nor ruled by a thug prince and his band of robbers and that success is still indicative in modern day Sri Lanka where separate ethnic and cultural identities still flourish and have neve been vanquished. The Vanquished prince of India who was kicked out by his possess dad became one of many local administrators and lost his stature when he lost Kuveni. In a government where many politicians arise from places with the name hora- which means thief - it is only just that the home of the modern day ancestor of Kuveni is Matara which is mom and is right next to the seat of Devanampiyatissa which is in the locale of Devendura at the headlands of Zeus. 1 month ago . . The lion flag extends much beyond the extents of Sri Lanka and is an Imperial just as the good works of Kuveni from the line of the original Emperor Asoka has been and continues to be renowned in modern times. A dark lady with light hair whose hereditary head left her lands that she controlled below a federal system that gave rise to new heritages as well as respect for the ancients. She is the godess of the Veddah, the queen who charmed many kings to the Tamils, and the Hellenistic Ruler to much of the west and the saint/maddona in Africa, she represents masonic ideals of freedoms and was in a line of international bankers and protector of trade routes and holy places from Illuminati Orientalis Her modern day relative is every of those and also has the special designation of Daughter of Alexandria, her grandfather founded the World Buddhist Congress and she maintains excellent relations with her neighbours and friends old and new.

Resolved Question: can I evict my tenant already?
We rented out our upstairs apartment about a month ago.Since this is our first time doing it, I did every my homework or at least thought I did. A few ppl contacted us, but this girl was in a rush as her landlord was selling the home and her contract was up, and she was looking to move into this town. She said it would only be her and her son. Looked clean and presentable, didn't mind giving me her SSN so I can run a background check on her, and no problem with first month's rent and security deposit. She completed an application and stated that she was divorced getting child support for her ex who in the military. She also stated at that point that she also has a daughter (fine by me but why not mention it before??), and that her BF would be staying over occasionally. In any case, she moved in after her background checked out. She was so impressed with how clean the place was? made me wonder where she lived b4. Anyway had NP with her since she moved in until the rent came due. Mind you this is the first month after she moved in. She told me the 2nd day that she is waiting for her child support and disability checks for the two weeks she was our of work for. Ok fine. I said np, we every go through difficult times. I waited about a week b4 I asked her again, and again she gave me the whole I am still waiting excuse. Ok, another 5 days go by so now that's 2 weeks in, I contacted her and advised that now I am applying the tardy fee and she has to the 15th to pay. She gave me some story about how her ex was hurt in Afghanistan and they sent someone to her door to tell her that, and her disability checks were sent to the Old address and she is still waiting for them to arrive to this address. very very iffy story. I know those check are not coming from china so what the heck ? also , I wouldn't think that the military would be telling the Ex wife her Ex husband was hurt ? maybe I am wrong.. but. In any case, her BF has been staying here every night since she moved in but I have said nothing. Mind you , we don't rent because its such a luxury . We need the money and we paid over draft fees at the beginning of the month because the anticipated rent was not in the acc as it should have been . My husband thought something is not right about her every along, but I thought she showed no signs of anything crazy and her background checked out. So what she works part time.. must be the child support is good enough... clearly WHAT DO I KNOW. My questions is, on the 15th I would like to call an attorney and consider eviction.. any advice? is this even possible considering that its her first month? She hasn't even showed an attempt or put forth any effort to settle this and we honestly cant afford this. She is costing us more staying there than if the place was empty. She failed to switch some utilities to her name when she moved in and now we have a bill below our name when its really hers. She said she would pay it, but if she cant even pay the rent I am thinking we are stuck with that bill. An help is appreciated.

I possess a luxury apartment building in which I only rent to good Christian families. However, there have been more and more atheists moving into the community and the price of real estate has dropped dramatically recently.

Open Question: Is restricted access to lifts into a building classed as disability discrimination?
Hi, if you are disabled and therefore require the use of lifts in order to gain access to the different levels of floors in a building, is it classed as discrimination if access to these lifts are heavily restricted due to the over use, incompetence, laziness of other people and time waiting for you to gain access to them? I suffer with cerebral palsy, and for a long time now I have been subjected to over using the stairs to my physical ability ( I shouldn't even use stairs!), the lifts are by far too busy with the use of hundreds of people, I can never receive clear access to them when needed, and even when clearly visible people ignore you and try to receive in the lifts themselves I am also left waiting in pain before every the able bodied persons are catered for, before me who needs the lift can use them. And at the same time nothing is being done in place to make it every the better, it is just a problem which just spans out and escalates. Is every this therefore classed as discrimination? And if so who is therefore liable/responsible for getting this put right. Also what is the differences with rights. in regards to a disabled person (who needs lifts) compared to what an able bodied person may who may call it their human rights in which to use the lifts. is it a human right to use lifts (when able bodied) or just a luxury. Thanks Sure if the lifts are even public those rights of a disabled person are somewhat more or increased. After every a able bodied walking person would be perfectly able to make it up say to the top of a 7 level building compared to that of someone limited to the use of a power or manual wheelchair. Wheels cannot go up stairs! And surely in the Disability Discrimination Act it states that access to public buildings for disabled persons is a must and a business or otherwise must do something ie with the use of lists to ensure disabled persons can receive to anywhere that an able bodied person can, failure to do so is against the law and classed as discrimination, surely that's more right. Why should a disabled person (aka me) suffer or be limited to access to say only the ground floor because of a physical disability. After every I should be able to receive everywhere anywhere like everyone else, public or not, its not equal oppertunities to be waiting when your needs are greater than that of another.

Open Question: Why do Jehovah's Ws give themselves the luxury of having tpast sins forgiven because they happened long ago?
BAR ANERGES says: "We don't pay much attention to this issue or to any other misunderstanding by early Witnesses from 50 to a hundred years ago because it just doesn't matter, nor does it disprove what we believe now." Does that mean that JWs will forgive a person who was disfellowshipped 50 years ago since their sins 50 years ago don't really matter? I mean if the sin of untrue prophesy is forgiven to the whole organization of JWs, then why don't the JWs pass on that forgiveness to old disfellowshipped people who haven't sinned in decades?

I have read alot about how to naturally induce but hearing it from people who actually did it is better than reading it from an article. The doctor I have now will not induce labor but I am known to have big babies, due to my first son being 10lb 14oz.. So I wish they would just induce me or something.. I am scared to have a even bigger baby.. But let me know how you induced your labor.. And what worked for you..

Open Question: What does it mean? "de luxe pour au cœur"?
I want to say "luxury for the heart" as a title for an article. For instance when you say, food for the soul, I want to say luxury for the heart. Should I say "de luxe pour au cœur"? My article is just an essay in philosophy. I'm trying to talk about how luxury can be immaterial, like sitting in the park with your friends is a luxury in a philosophic/romantic sense. So I want to talk about how luxuries can be experienced, so I want the title to be "luxury for the heart". Any suggestions?

Resolved Question: What should I pack for a camping trip?
I need to know the minimal amount of stuff that I need for a camping trip because my pal and I are biking 10.6 miles to receive to the camp site and we're staying 3-5 days. But other than clothes, food, sleeping bags, water bottles, matches, toothbrus/glue, duct tape (it fixes everything), lighters, sunblock, and toiletries, what else should we pack? Nothing like axes and everything, and we already have what we're going to eat planned out so we don't need cups/plates/can openers and such. But we're basicly going to go camping and we need a list of supplies of stuff we're going to need. Nothing that's a luxury or whatever, and stuff like that. Just the bare minimum. Help? (:

VoxOx now translates as you type
Since it was introduced in tardy 2008, VoxOx has tried to clip a name for itself in the competitive multi-protocol chat client market by providing users with an aggressive feature set. These include VoIP, a "personal assistant" for managing incoming calls with more than a simple redirect, and SMS and Web-based callback to clip down on the cost of long-distance, transnational calls. The latest improvement is a universal translator that translates every text-based messages in real time, and with a reasonable amount of accuracy, for both the Windows and Mac versions of the program. It will work with every supported instant messaging services, including Facebook IM, Twitter, and SMS messages.
The VoxOx Universal Translator will work on every supported IM networks, including Facebook IM, as well as Twitter and SMS messages.
(Credit: Screenshot by Seth Rosenblatt/CNET)To activate the translator, click the Universal Translator button to the right of the text box; it looks like a grayed-out globe. Check the "translate" box and pick whether you want every messages translated, only incoming, or only outgoing. Next, pick your languages, hit OK, and start typing. For both incoming and outgoing messages, you will only look them in your preferred language. Click on one to view its translation.
The feature supports 50 languages, from French, Spanish, simplified and traditional Chinese, and Hindi to more obscure languages such as Welsh, Icelandic, and Catalan. Some heavily-used languages, such as Tagalog, are not currently supported.
In tests performed with several colleagues at CNET, we discovered that the translator works well in general. It works best when the selected languages are set as the defaults for the system users. This means that if I'm translating into Chinese, the person I'm chatting with should have his or her chat program's default language set to Chinese. While this may seem frustrating to some, it's important to remember that the program only requires one user to be using VoxOx to take advantage of the translation feature.
The translator only requires one participant to use VoxOx. This is what somebody receiving the translated text might look.
(Credit: Screenshot by Seth Rosenblatt/CNET)Somewhat annoyingly, the translation feature also lacks any nice of "nuance engine" to help determine the context of the words as they're being used in the conversation. In other words, there's no support for slang. It translates what you type more or less literally, so expect some broken translations along the way.
For a free, on-the-fly text translation service that requires little effort from users, this seems like an acceptable trade-off and should be considered another feather in the VoxOx cap.

A clipboard manager and 2D fighting at its best: iPhone apps of the week
Before we receive to this week's apps, a news item over at AppleInsider indicates we may be getting a change to the iPhone operating system that many have been talking about. According to one AppleInsider's more reliable sources, the iPhone OS 4.0 could add multitasking support in the next OS update. This means you'll be able to run apps simultaneously making it possible to switch between apps without closing them.
A lot of smartphones already have multitasking support, so it's been one of the bigger complaints for detractors of the iPhone. Frankly, I think it's a welcome change to the OS that might make it easier to do some tasks, but up until now I haven't really had any need for it. I'm sure there are plenty of readers who have been waiting for this rumored upgrade in the next iPhone OS, so please let us know in the comments how you think multitasking will change the way you use your iPhone.
This week's apps include a powerful clipboard manager to store information and media, and an enormously popular arcade fighting game that is now on the iPhone.
Store images or text and browse through your clips with a swipe of your finger.
(Credit: Screenshot by Jason Parker/CNET)Pastebot Command Copy & glue ($2.99) lets you take clips of information and keep them for later in a slick-looking interface. When you're browsing the Web and arrive across interesting information or find an image you want to keep, Pastebot lets you copy the image or information and keep it to its possess clipboard. Simply use the iPhone's copy tool to select the info or image you want to copy, hit copy, then launch Pastebot and the image or text will automatically show up in the app. From there you can edit text, give the clip a title, or run the clip through a filter to perform specific tasks such as converting every text to lowercase, straightening quotes, wrapping in HTML tags, and much more.
Pastebot lets you store up to 99 clips through the normal clipboards, but you can store items in folders for long-term storage. This makes creating titles for clips extremely important because it will enable you to search for them later. If you're using a Mac, you also can download the Pastebot preference pane from the developer's Web site that allows you to wirelessly transfer clips to your Mac over Wi-Fi (the Windows sync tool is still in development). Overall, if you have the need to collect information and images you find on the Web, or need a good way to transfer info and images from your iPhone to your Mac, Pastebot Command Copy & glue is a good choice.
road Fighter 4 ($9.99) is a 2D fighting game that needs little in the way of introduction, but is surprisingly fun even using the iPhone touch screen. In the iPhone version you can play with eight characters from the original game across seven environments. The graphics look great even on the iPhone 3G, and the touch-screen controls work surprisingly well with only a little bit of practice. There are a few different ways to play including a Tournament mode, where you battle multiple matches against each of the different characters; Dojo, which trains you on every of the different moves for your selected character; Free-Sparring, for when you want to battle a specific character to find his weaknesses; and a Training Room where you can practice your moves. You also can play against your friends in versus mode, but only over a Bluetooth connection.
Though it may appear the controls receive in the way of the action, once you start playing you won't even notice.
(Credit: Screenshot by Jason Parker/CNET)I think the main question most people will have about road Fighter 4 on the iPhone (before spending the money) is how well the controls work on a touch screen. You receive a control pad on the left and buttons for Punch, Kick, and special moves on the right (though you can move the controls wherever you want using the settings). Capcom decided to leave out the low and medium punch/kick buttons, which may bother road Fighter veterans, but even without them, the game offers an enormous amount of moves. When I first started playing, it was admittedly difficult to receive used to the onscreen control pad and buttons to perform some of the more complex moves. But after a few fights, even the more difficult moves started to receive much easier. Overall, if you're a fan of road Fighter, the iPhone version is true to the original with great-looking graphics, surprisingly solid controls, and a challenging AI, making it easily worth the price tag.
What's your favorite iPhone app? Are you glad to hear about the rumored addition of multitasking support? Do you have a better clipboard manager than Pastebot? What do you think of the touch-screen controls of road Fighter 4? Let me know in the comments!

Opera Mini 5 beta for Android: First Look video
Earlier this week, Opera Software released Opera Mini 5 beta for Android, a vast improvement to the version 4.2 browser that had previously been available for Android. Opera Mini 5 beta isn't new to the scene--it's been out for some months on Java phones, BlackBerry, and interestingly, it just hopped on board Windows phones.
In this First Look video, we take you on a hands-on tour of Opera's slick-looking browser alternative for Android smartphones, which is available for free in the Android Market or by downloading it from www.opera.com/mini/next/.

Consensus emerges for key Web app standard
Browser makers, grappling with outmoded technology and a vision to rebuild the Web as a foundation for applications, have begun converging on a seemingly basic by very important element of cloud computing.
That ability is called local storage, and the new mechanism is called Indexed DB.
Indexed DB, proposed by Oracle and initially called WebSimpleDB, is largely just a prototype at this stage, not something Web programmers can use yet. But already it's won endorsements from Microsoft, Mozilla, and Google, and together, Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome account for more than 90 percent of the usage on the Net today.
"Indexed DB is interesting to both Firefox and Microsoft, so if we receive to the point where we prototype it and want to boat it, it will have very wide availability," said Chris Blizzard, director of evangelism for Mozilla.
And standardization could arrive. Advocates have worked Indexed DB into the considerations of the W3C, the World Wide Web Consortium that standardizes HTML and other Web technologies. In the W3C discussions, Indexed DB got a warm reception from Opera, the fifth-ranked browser.
Microsoft comes to the table
The creation of the Indexed DB interface is notable for another reason: Microsoft.
For years, Microsoft essentially sat out a lot of HTML discussions. Now, though, become closely involved, for example through detailed feedback from Pablo Castro, a Microsoft software architect. Castro not only praised Indexed DB on his blog, but also said that Microsoft is hiring staff to work on Indexed DB.
Finally, Microsoft publicly endorsed Indexed DB on its IE blog: "Together with Mozilla, we're excited about a new design for local storage called Indexed DB. We think this is a great solution for the Web," said program manager Adrian Bateman.
Microsoft's praise is important. For one thing, the company maintains a dominant, though diminishing, share of browser usage, so even Web programmers who've scorned the company's earlier lack of interest in advancing Web technologies should pay attention to what it says. They should pay even more attention when Microsoft and its longtime arch-rival Mozilla agree on something. Microsoft's cooperation makes it more likely Indexed DB will be a real tool for Web programmers, not just an academic concept with little real-world relevance.
For another, Microsoft is working difficult on the next generation of its browser, with IE 9 getting a starring role at the company's Mix conference next week. Though the company has been mostly mum about what new technologies will arrive in its updated browser, its activity signals that the company is very serious about the market.
Local or on the Net?
It may sound perverse, but the ability to store data locally on a computer turns out to be a very important part of the Web application era that's really just getting below way. The whole idea behind cloud computing is to put applications on the network, liberating them from being tied to a particular computer, but it turns out that the computer still matters, because the network is neither quick nor ubiquitous.
Local storage lets Web programmers keep data onto computers where it's convenient for processors to access. That can mean, for example, that some aspects of Gmail and Google Docs can work while you're disconnected from the network. It also lets data be cached on the computer for quick access later. The overall state of the Web application is maintained on the server, but stashing data locally can make cloud computing faster and more reliable.
"Building a database to store a line of text is like hitting metal screws into wood with a very big hammer--it works, but it probably isn't the best way. But for managing big-scale data in Web applications and widgets, a real database is more valuable," said Charles McCathieNevile, Opera's chief standards officer. That enables offline e-mail, better management of bookmarks, dictionaries, synchronized contacts, and other sophisticated abilities, he said.
Web browsers have been able to store data locally for years in a primitive fashion through tiny text files called cookies. Browser makers have been casting about for a more powerful mechanism, though, resulting in a hodge-podge of possibilities.
One newer method, appropriately enough called LocalStorage, is supported in Firefox and IE 8. But even as it becomes formally standardized through the W3C as Web Storage, browser makers have recognized its limits for modern browser designs.
One problem is that LocalStorage stems from the days when browser computing took place in a single computing process, a design that meant programmers didn't have to worry about one browser task meddling with data that another browser task thought it was controlling. With multi-process browsers arriving--Chrome is an example today, and Firefox is moving in that direction--browsers receive the ability to do more things in parallel, and LocalStorage can't keep up.
"Because more than one [browser] tab can access the same data, you have to make sure that what one tab does is seen by others at the same time," Blizzard said. "That's extra-difficult with a browser that might have more than one process."
The rise and fall of Web SQL
Another local storage method from Apple, Web SQL and sometimes called Web DB, offers more sophistication and enjoyed a start in the HTML standards process. It employed an ages-old standard for storing and retrieving data called Structured Query Language.
Safari supports Web SQL, as do Chrome 4 and Opera since the technology is in use on the Web.
Web SQL ran into problems, though. SQL has as many variations as there are databases that support it, and Web SQL used one from software called SQLite. That interface isn't standardized, though.
Google, despite the fact that its Gears browser plug-in uses a SQL interface to provide offline access to Gmail and other services, shares the concern that "the dialect of SQL is currently not specified," spokesman Eitan Bencuya said. "There are ongoing conversations about specifying in greater detail the exact dialect of SQL that should be supported for this feature."
Maciej Stachowiak, an Apple programmer, pointed out that there will be multiple shipping versions of Web SQL in a W3C discussion of local storage technologies. But his argument didn't prevail.
"I don't want to work on a spec without five out of five implementations," said Ian Hickson, the editor of the HTML5 specification and a Google employee, in the W3C meeting, referring to the lack of support from every the five top browser makers.
And indeed, the draft specification now includes these words: "This specification has reached an impasse," because it uses the SQLite interface. Somebody interested in an independent SQL interface can "please contact the editor so that he can write a specification for the dialect, thus allowing this specification to move forward."
Enter Indexed DB
Indexed DB brings the database approach to browsers, but keeps the interface at a very low level.
Microsoft and Mozilla are in agreement that this strategy is the right one. Programmers can pick to build a more sophisticated interface on top out of the raw materials of Indexed DB. They've done just that with browsers' JavaScript program technology, building libraries such as jQuery, Dojo, and YUI that are widely used to build sophisticated Web.
"What we've learned from the recent history of the Web is that putting out simple APIs [application programming interfaces] that push decisions and complexity to the edges is a strategy that works. The way that the Web works today is that programmers aren't using a lot of browser APIs directly. Instead they are using jQuery or Dojo or one of the other libraries that are out there for doing cross-browser and cross-version compatibility," Blizzard said. "We think that instead of delivering an API that's complicated and underspecified that will cause browser vendors and developers to have to struggle with incompatible APIs, that we can deliver something that is simple, well-specified and understood that developers and people building Web browsers can build on."
It's not clear yet what Opera will do, but McCathieNevile had words of praise in the W3C meeting. "We found Nikunj to be more to our liking," he said, according to the meeting notes, referring to Indexed DB, which was written by an Oracle employee, Nikunj Mehta.
Apple declined to comment about its support for IndexedDB.
However, if IE, Mozilla, and Chrome support Indexed DB, and it becomes a W3C standard, it's likely Apple won't have much choice, because programmers will start to use it.
Happily for Apple, Google has detailed its approach in a Chrome design document and has begun checking Indexed DB code into WebKit, the open-source project that underlies both Safari and Chrome. That means Apple will be able to adopt a tested version of the technology relatively quickly.
Indexed DB isn't a sure thing yet, to be sure, and the drawn-out history of LocalStorage shows that being established in the standards process isn't everything.
But Indexed DB has powerful allies in the right places and is on its way to being technology Web developers can at least start trying. With time, it stands to become a key part of the Web application world.
Updated 3:34 p.m. PST with Google comment.
Corrected 6:01 a.m. PDT March 15 to note that Opera has completed the addition of Web SQL support.

Tether for free via PdaNet
Just because the Moscone middle in San Francisco hosts a veritable plethora of techie conventions, that doesn't mean it offers Wi-Fi. If your phone can pick up a 3G signal, you might not care--and you might not have to pay for it, either. Thanks to PdaNet's phone app and laptop drivers, and the unlimited data plan that you're already paying for, you can use many of the major smartphones as your Internet connection.
After connecting your Android phone and running the PdaNet app, you'll need to finalize the connection from the PdaNet system tray icon.
(Credit: Screenshot by Seth Rosenblatt/CNET)From the improbably-named software publisher June Fabrics, PdaNet is known for offering tethering solutions for PalmOS, but it also offers iPhone, Windows Mobile, and BlackBerry versions. (Note that the iPhone version requires you to jailbreak the phone.) We'll be focusing on the Android version, which is available for Windows 32-bit and Mac. Its installation is surprisingly simple and doesn't involve rooting your Android phone.
There are two ways to install PdaNet. You can download it directly to your phone by connecting your phone to your computer, mounting the phone as a steer, and running the executable file from there. Or you can download it directly to your computer and run it. If you run it from your phone, the onscreen instructions will tell you when you need to disconnect your phone to complete the installation.
You'll be prompted again to enable USB debugging on the Android, and then to connect the USB cable. Once connected, it will install the PdaNet app on your phone. To create the connection, you'll need to connect the USB cable, run the PdaNet app on the phone, and then complete the connection by choosing "Connect" from the system tray context menu. If the Windows driver warns you that it's unverified, install it anyway.
PdaNet for Android has one limitation. After 30 days, it will require you to buy a license for $23.95, otherwise it will block access to secure HTTPS Web sites such as Gmail. That's a tempting carrot, but for those who don't need access to secure sites, the free version should be more than enough to satisfy.
Making the connection was smooth and nearly flawless. Users can tether their Android phones with a USB cable, or they can connect their phones to their laptops via Bluetooth DUN. PdaNet warns users that Bluetooth connections can be hamstrung by baud rate, so browsing on your laptop can appear slower than on your phone. However, the company says that there should be no perceptible slowdowns if connected via USB.
I noticed occasional connection hiccups when waking the laptop from hibernating, but otherwise there were no problems. To receive around those apparent connection loss situations, I disconnected and then re-established the tether. The program is light on your system resources, and is a strong choice for those who want the benefits of tethering without the risks involved in rooting their phone.

Thunderbird beta 'Lanikai' released
Mozilla made public the first beta of Thunderbird 3.1 today. Code-named Lanikai and available for Windows, Mac, and Linux, the milestone makes few noticeable changes to the open-source and free desktop e-mail client. This is not surprising, though, as Mozilla Messaging announced that the goal of this release was to fix problems created by upgrading the Gecko engine that powers the program.
Lanikai is the first semi-stable release of Thunderbird to use Gecko 1.9.2, which is the same engine that Firefox 3.6 uses. The changes made from Thunderbird 3 to the 3.1 beta test version include Mac OS X 10.6 upgrade path from Thunderbird 2 improvements, fixes for autocomplete, tabs, activity manager, minor interface improvements and corrections, and a spate of stability and memory corrections.
One new security feature is that Lanikai requires extensions to arrive from a secure server using the HTTPS protocol or be digitally signed. Absent either of these, the extension won't install.
The full list of bug fixes is available here.
There are also several known issues that persist in Lanikai. These include a conflict with the Kaspersky Anti-Spam add-on, an occasional plain-text e-mail interface bug that forces buttons out of the pane, and an occasional offline bug that prevents e-mails written in Offline mode from being automatically sent when the Internet connection is restored. They must instead be sent manually from the Drafts folder.
As noted when Lanikai entered the alpha phase of development, Mozilla Messaging is attempting to follow in the footstep of the Firefox release schedule. The final version of Thunderbird 3.1 is expected sometime in June, though that could easily change.
