Opera 9.5 public alpha

Will this Joost be "The" Web-TV ?

, ,

From creators of Skype comes new start-up. Joost (http://www.joost.com/, currently in beta stage) is a video content silo, much like youtube, just with "serious" content - copyrighted, full movies and so on.

It hopes to get money from in-video advertising.
So, lets just wait and see how it will turn out :wink:

IE7 RC1 for Windows XP

,

"A release candidate is fundamentally different from a beta. With the exception of a very short list of issues we’re aware of and working on, we think the product is done. We’re looking to enthusiasts, developers, and IT Pros to tell us if this build has any critical, must-fix before we ship issues. The real world is much richer than our test environment and I appreciate the feedback that has helped us make the product better.

The English RC1 release will be followed by localized versions in mid-September. We’ll continue with Arabic, Finnish, German, and Japanese as before but also add French and Spanish versions with this release. Web sites and applications that are compatible with this RC1 build should be compatible with the final version of IE7 when we release it later this year. (If you’re a developer or IT Pro, I strongly recommend using our Readiness Toolkit and Application Compatibility Toolkit.)"
