Opera 9

I've been using Opera 9 for a few weeks now to stream Pandora (http://pandora.com) because it didn't seem to suffer from the memory leak that balloons firefox when left overnight but only recently did I investigate it as an alternative for all my browsing needs and I cannot believe how awesome it is! Its passed all the compatibility tests I've thrown at it, including EasyDataControl javascript mania and it comes loaded with alot of useful features and alot of cool features. It has a built in mail client, irc client and a widget engine for your desktop. Also it comes with voice activated control and some advanced tabbed browsing that allows you to arrange tabbed windows in a variety of ways including side by side. Although its not Open Source it is still a great alternative to Firefox and IE. Finally, the company could really take off with their focus on mobile devices and the growing use of portable devices for browsing the web.

Integrating our Phone with IM

This morning you may have noticed the following features added to our Instant Messenger:

• Phone Presence


• Caller ID System Tray Notification Popup


• Right click and call

Asterisk-IM does not work with Wildfire when using the native db storage. Wildfire is now being powered by a MySQL database. We also now have their presence plugin enabled.
