Firefox OS Firefox OS: Mozilla falls squarely on smartphones with its own platform

That “open operating system for smartphones” so far applied only to Android. Until now. Mozilla also want to Firefox a slice of the pie that Apple enjoys good with Google with their respective mobile platforms.

The non-profit organization officially launched its initiative (since early 2012 had given some details at the Mobile World Congress) noting that it will be an open ecosystem based entirely on the language HMTL5.

2 the companies will initiate the experience with this new operating system: Alcatel and WIN ZTE . Brazil will be the first country to receive the first batch ViVo the operator (a subsidiary of Telefónica), although other support 7 and indicated that these irons with all devices equipped with Firefox OS .

The output will pistolazo in early 2013 (many months after the departure of IOS iPhone 6) and WIN also will Qualcomm Snapdragon processor.

In the official press release does not reveal much more information-as-could not miss the capabilities of the devices will be developed under a scheme of applications (a trend that has gone even Windows Phone from Microsoft).
Mozilla submitted their tools to create applications to W3C for standardization.

remains to be seen if the interface is achieved permeate popular browser in the operating system (as happened with Chrome OS) or the banking organization will bring its own projects like Thunderbird or SeaMonkey.

Sony SONY Gaikai1 purchase Gaikai and solidifies its gaming platform in the cloud If Nintendo is credited with having changed the way to interact with video games, Sony have to give the prize to standardize formats. Got the CD-and DVD-then will replace the traditional cartridge and then run over to HD DVD with its Blu-Ray (with a high cost in sales of its Playstation 3 , that is).

Now, with U Wii leading the next generation of consoles, the company seeks to imagine the future for your next workhorse, it’s worth imagining not expected to be called “ Playstation 4 ” but opt ​​for a name just as you did with your laptop, PSVita.

can imagine where the shots go if we take into account latest acquisition: Gaikai, the game service platform in the cloud. It is crazy to say then that Sony will opt for a strategy which includes not only video games on their consoles but on other machines of its manufacture, finishing and consolidating a market that has been opening the Playstation brand integration with tablets, Android phones and even televisions.

The acquisition was publicly announcing today will purchase an estimated 380 million dollars. This calls into question whether the successor to the PS3 (known as Orbis code ) could do without disk as the rumors suggest the offspring of XBOX . Missing it means to see what Sony is (high) the purchase of insurance that we will not see the full benefits well into the next generation of video games.

By the way, and with this acquisition the company is done with major Gaikai partners like Capcom and Electronic Arts, so it is more than certain that we will see other exclusive features in their upcoming products.

if we had enough with existing IM clients for GNU / Linux, Jitsi joins the party and, again, comes with good intentions, though, and this is not again suffers from the same flaws as the rest of applications available for your operating system.

Jitsi logo1 Another messenger multiprotocol platform and videoconferencing

Instantbird we knew yesterday (actually, again nothing, apologies), an instant messaging client based on Firefox and Pidgin quite interesting in appearance at least, one of the comments (thanks!) points out another looks pretty good alternative : Jitsi.

Jitsi is an instant messaging client multiprotocol, multiplatform and video is in an advanced state of development, specifically in the beta way to their first final version. Features (copied image to a quick recognition) are as follows:

Jitsy Jitsi Another messenger multiprotocol platform and videoconferencing

As you see, is not bad you offer this Open Source development, but as I noted earlier in this article, if anyone expected to find videoconferencing Microsoft to forget (to see if humanity to be completely forgotten), but “we are working on it.”

If you want to test this application in the downloads section of its web offer installation packages for Debian and Ubuntu (with repository included), generic RPM (I’ve tried to install openSUSE 11.4 and has given me a dependency error, although they were perfectly satisfied) for Arch Linux (by AUR) in addition to source code.

you fancy a look at the program on their website you will find a gallery with screenshots of its interface and different functions, yes, all of Mac OS X (wanted to catch their own but could not be).

Well, what do you think

It seems that Google is preparing to cope with Microsoft and Skype in the field of video communications. A few hours ago the Mountain View announced the development of a video chat tool for Chrome, and so little has been able to see the idea is very promising.

The firm’s objective is to integrate search engine WebRTC technology (an open source project that allows real-time communications from the web browser) in your browser recognized. This will be video conferencing without downloading an additional desktop software .

One of the most important aspects to note is that the project will not be limited to only Google Chrome, as in the presentation, said he would also be implemented in other browsers (Firefox and Opera, presumably).

Also, as is a free software WebRTC all users who are putting together a website can take this technology and, in theory, create your own communication tool like Skype . The project is very promising and certainly Google and know surfers get too much juice.

Let’s wait and let the weeks pass to see how it goes this idea. In the case of this success is no doubt that WebRTC will become one of the many new features of Chrome OS. The developers have in their hands the tools to innovate once more, hopefully surprise us with something fresh and sweeping .

“What happened in Nokia as our competitors set fire to our participation in the market? We stayed back, we miss big trends and lost time “, reads one segment of the memorandum .

CEO of Nokia, who took office last September, did not hesitate when talking about Apple and Android . “The first iPhone was released in 2007 and still do not have a product that comes close to that experience, Elop said, adding: ” Android hit the stage just over two years and this week we seized the lead in the volume of smartphones.

PlayOnLinux solutions as we have seen, DLJ Playdeb or serving as an interesting way to manage the games that you can install Linux, and usually come from the world Windows (through Wine) but also has a good list of Linux-native productions.

Now comes

lutris , a new platform that takes that idea PlayOnLinux but expands the number of systems from which games, already has good representation console emulators , for example.

As indicated in Ubuntu Vibes in lutris find support :

  • native Linux games
  • Games Windows via Wine
  • arcade games
  • Amiga Games

  • 500, 600 and 1200
  • Atari 2600 games, 800, 800XL, 130XE, 5200, ST, STE, TT, Lynx
  • Browser games like Quake Live or Minecraft
  • Games

  • C64, VIC20 and C128
  • games based on LucasArts SCUMM
  • MS-DOS Games
  • games for various consoles from Nintendo, Sega or Sony PlayStation.
  • Wed That’s right: the usefulness of lutris is a kind of pitcher for the other platforms , so we have to have the emulators and ROMs, if necessary , as in the Amiga, to complete the process of emulation.

    Yet it is an interesting project, so we have to pay attention to this development in Python / GTK uses a GPLv3 license.
