opera_server.jpgOpera has released a new beta version of their Mini browser for cell phones and PDAs that includes pretty serious improvements for anyone who's serious about their hand-held browsing—namely, actual file downloading, uploading to select online services like Flickr and Gmail, and saving of web pages for offline access. Previous versions of Mini, like most mobile browsers, could only handle files that the browser or the device itself knew what to do with, but Mini now lets you save files and web pages to the device's storage, assuming it has a working version of the JSR-75 access protocol running in the background. Opera also threw in page-based "Find" searching and claims its server-based page cache is running 50 percent faster in recent tests. Opera Mini 4.1 beta is a free download for m read more »

wifisecure.pngTech site Ars Technica runs down the basics of securing your home wireless network with the most secure and up-to-date methods. The main takeaway is that when you enable encryption on your wireless router, use WPA encryption instead of WEP, because it's better and stronger. Unlike WEP, WPA uses a 48-bit initialization vector and a 128-bit encryption key. More importantly, however, WPA uses what's called the Temporary Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). Whereas WEP recycles the same key for encrypting all the packets flowing across the network, WPA's TKIP changes the encryption key every single time a packet is transmitted. This, combined with the use of longer keys, prevents a hacker from compromising a router simply by passively observing a large enough set of packet transmissions. Ars lists common home network har read more »

Google's Software Engineering Team has developed yet another tool to come to the aid of the webmasters. The application consists of Protocol Buffers that, as it is stated on the company's blog, "allow you to define simple data structures in a special definition language, then compile them to produce classes to represent those structures in the language of your choice." When dealing with large amounts of code, the message needs to be compressed in classes, which is exactly what Protocol... read more »

Gmail offered users, from the very beginning, the possibility to use https (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer) in order to prevent their data being intercepted by third persons. The idea behind the protocol is that users' data is encrypted before being launched to the Internet. The team from Gmail announced yesterday that people can now choose to log on to their e-mail by always using https.

An option integrated in the Settings button allows users to choose to be prote... read more »

IPTV is not yet available for a wide range of users, as the costs of such technology are still high. The Internet Protocol Television, which is what the acronym stands for, is a TV service offered via an Internet network, usually one that is broadband supported. The cost of broadband itself is high enough to determine 35% of the Americans to keep on using the good ol' dial-up, so IPTV looks even more exotic.

Opera, along with some of the world's greatest network operators, service ... read more »
