Last week Nokia released a music edition of their 6630 model and there they mentioned that it will also include new music player software. Since then I’ve been wondering where I could get that player for my already existing 6630. Now I can stop wondering, since it is downloadable from here. I don’t know if it was Nokias intention to give out this player, but anyway it has and it seems to be quite good. Let’s see how this goes. I think I might need a bigger memory card.

Mozilla has released first beta of their new Firefox version 1.5. The final version is scheduled later this year.

Version 1.5 will include features such as:

• improved software update system
• faster back and forward navigation
• a feature for clearing private browsing data
• drag-and-drop reordering of browser tabs
• a redesigned Options/Preferences window
• better popup blocking

Web standards support is also improved, with support for Scalable Vector Graphics, JavaScript 1.6 and more CSS.

Features are looking good. Hopefully this version will make more IE users to swap to Firefox so that web developers can really start taking the advantage of the new web standards.

Firefox 1.5 Beta 1 can be downloaded from here. And remember that for now it is for testing purposes only.

As in my previous post I mentioned about photos from New Orleans disaster appearing on Flickr, now also Google Maps is showing what has happened there via satellite images. Google Maps has a special Katrina button for New Orleans area. The new satellite images were taken on Wednesday, August 31st.

That superdome isn’t looking that super anymore.

During the London bombings it was possible to find photos from the disaster via Flickr. Now you can see what hurricane Katrina did to New Orleans and Mississipi.
