64-Bit Chrome For Windows In Beta Phase

After a short test phase, the 64-bit version of Chrome for Windows is now available in a beta. A fianl version will be released later this year. Even though the hardware and operating systems are fit for 64 bit, many software manufacturers do with the switch to the new architecture more difficult. In the browser world, only the Internet Explorer (since version 8) is available as a 64-bit version.

Now Google Chrome is following the suit and is releasing the 64-bit beta version of their fast browser in beta mode which is meant for the Windows users. A 64-bit version of the Chrome browser is available now to users of Windows 7 and 8 and is in beta development mode. This move shows that Google considers this version is stable enough for a wider public, which would most likely to appear as a final version with Chrome 37 in late August or even within six weeks.

What is surprising is that, as compared to Mozilla, very short test phase of the 64-bit version in the so-called Dev and Canary development branches, which had begun in June. For the Firefox; the developers are experimenting with a 64-bit version for Windows Years together, but they have never released a stable one. According to the internal testing the 64-bit version of Chrome, however, is now much more stable than the 32-bit version, which has been confirmed in the two-month test phase as well.

Above all, the crash rate of the rendering process had significantly reduced. Although the main advantage of 64-bit programs rarely comes (more than 3.2 gigabytes of addressable memory) for smaller programs such as browsers to support, but the development should be also applied here in the future. A real advantage is improving the security of Windows-8-users who do not currently have.

 In Windows 8 Chrome can use with high entropy due to the 64-bit Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), which also help to better fend off JIT-Spraying attack. In addition, existing defense mechanisms, such as the heap partitioning is more effective.

According to Google, the larger word width also allows "the use of processor and compiler optimizations, modern instruction sets and calling conventions, which allow more function parameters are quickly passed by the register."

This should be accelerated in particular with the presentation of graphics and multimedia content. Google tells that the average performance increased by 25 percent. In their first announcement of Google promised its users more speed, security and stability.

 The 64-bit beta of Chrome 37 is available for Windows now for download and can be used as a complete replacement for the previously used 32-bit versions.

New Social Media That Pays Its User

Every little thought, idea, experience, interaction goes up as status in the social media. Social media defines the progressive individual in the era of technology. Everyone is connected to one social media or the other. A recent social network called bubblews believes that the users who are a part of this network should also receive a part of its revenue.

THEIR HISTORY: 

In the year 2012, an initial version of this network was launched. The version launched was primarily in the form of a beta or test mode. According to the owners, in 2012, there were 2 million visitors to the site from all over the world and with almost ten of the thousands of them posting at the site regularly. From the test version, the company launching bubblews received a capital of about $ 3 million. The owners are now planning to use that capital to launch their developed version.

WHATS NEW ABOUT BUBBLEWS? 

According to their owners, Zuccari and Dixit, the other social networking site currently present in the market claims to be a free zone while they keep a track on their user’s history and earns profit from them. Bubblews will be a little different from the other sites. If a user writes a minimum of 400-character post, tracing the personality of the user is not that difficult. This way, every user is not just a cookie that the programmers spy on but an identity the owners could keep a track about.

Every post is made public. This way the site will be the home of active interactions between several individuals on topics ranging from sports to wars. Anyone at any point of time could follow and participate in a discussion.

The version that is to be launched is in English but other languages are under work. This is because the test version was not only used by users from United States but also from places like Canada, Brazil, Philippines, Britain and India.

THE IDEA BEHIND THE CONCEPT? 

This is probably the first social networking site willing to share its revenue earned from the advertisements among its users. This is mainly because the owners believe that every time an user is posting something on a social networking site , they are pouring a piece of their heart and that must be acknowledged.

The users are unlikely to become rich for they will receive one per cent per interaction and only receive cash payouts after earning a credit of $50. But the initiative must be acknowledged.

The owners believe that the network is not just the place where user stay connected to have fun but we also find students struggling to buy books, organizations trying to raise money for social endeavours and single parents doing their best for their children. This initiative is for all of them.

A survey that was taken up has shown over 62% of the respondents is willing to try the latest version of bubblews!
