Microsoft has unveiled a technical preview of its newly christened Microsoft Office Web Apps services.
A month and a half after Mozilla issued a significant update to its open-source web browser, the organisation has begun encouraging users of Firefox 3 to install version 3.5.
Google's Chrome and Apple's Safari web browsers have continued to steal market share from their much larger rivals Internet Explorer and Firefox over the past six months, according to internal ZDNet.com.au statistics.

Canberra's shared services organisation InTACT came under fire at the state's budget estimates for not allowing members of the Legislative Assembly to use Mozilla's popular browser Firefox.
Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala was officially released overnight and marked the eleventh release of the distribution. It's attractive, polished and measured, but fails "the grandma test".
I've been playing around with a beta build of Firefox's 3.6 browser for some time, and while it's been completely stable, its new tab behaviour has annoyed me.
Google has announced a new Chrome Operating System, designed for the web and with a browser baked directly into it so much so that the entire OS is named after it. But the search giant should watch out: this decision seems designed to attract antitrust attention.
Turns out that the "developer preview" of Google's latest creation, Google Wave, is not as open as one would expect, with the preview only being open to attendees of Google's I/O conference but there is another way to see it in action. And forget wanting to use IE6 with it.
The choice and use of the new video tag in HTML 5 is one of the more explosive sticking points in the evolving standard. Which codecs should browsers use? Why even have a video tag at all when Flash works well currently? Will anyone use it even if it becomes a standard?
Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala will be the distribution's eleventh release, and highlights include the addition of a new boot screen, an updated default theme, and the addition of the Ubuntu One service.
I've been puttering around in Google Wave for the best part of a week now, and I understand it, but I have no idea in hell what I'm supposed to be using it for.

Brendan Eich, CTO of Mozilla, talks about the race for the fastest browser engine. Google, Microsoft and Apple are all competing with Mozilla. The competition, he says, is good for users and developers.
Windows 7 will be code-versioned as Windows 7.0, won't it? On this week's Club Builder we see that it isn't so, as well as get Steve Ballmer thoughts on Vista deployment; plus we see some new HTML5 tricks.
Any other name would be better than Ubuntu's latest. Club Builder this week examines some alternative names, looks over Google Chrome's heritage, and a new Seinfeld ad for Microsoft debuts.
In this episode of Club Builder: a new Firefox plug-in makes browsing more powerful, computer viruses enter orbit, and Microsoft gets a three-way serve of soapboxing.
If you find that the price is right and you are only planning on doing menial tasks, you could do a lot worse than the HP ProBook.
