Google began testing new customisation features on its news aggregation site Wednesday in the US in a salvo against competition from Microsoft.
Google is floating a trial balloon of a service that pairs advertisements with blog feeds.

Despite the hype, it seems few IT departments are testing Google's recently launched Web browser Chrome yet.

Google announced overnight the release and open-sourcing of a trio of tools designed to help JavaScript developers.
IE may be the quickest browser to load pages, but this is not a 100m dash; seems like someone has forgotten to tell Microsoft that there is another 300m of JavaScript to go until this race is over.

Sorry if it sounds like I'm drinking the Google Kool-Aid here, but I have switched from Mozilla Firefox to Google Chrome as my default browser for the very reason Google's executives said we should: speed.
Developers make good stress testers, and the initial Wave service has had a lot of testing in the last few months. We take a ride on the wave, which should be opening to a wider beta program at the end of September.

The much-hyped Google Android phone operating system will hit Australia on 29 January 2009, in the form of the Kogan Agora and Agora Pro. At first glance, this looks to be one of the most exciting products of the year.
