PS3 jailbreak was long due and now we finally have it, thanks to xiaNaix of PSX-Scene. PS Jailbreak is a USB plug and play solution that installs in seconds, keeping your valid warranty seal in tact.

PS Jailbreak is very easy to install and takes you step-by-step in the GUI set up. It disables forced software updates and will never brick your console.

How to Enable D2D in Firefox 4

Posted: 19 Aug 2010 10:31 AM PDT


Firefox 4 will be bringing hardware-accelerated graphics with Direct2D support in Firefox 4, but that will not be enabled by default. The Firefox team believes that feature is not quite ready to be rolled out for everyone.

Even though it’s not enabled by default, you can still enable it manually with the help of the instructions given at the Firefox Wiki.

How to Enable D2D in Firefox 4

Follow the instructions below to enable D2D support in Firefox 4:

  1. Enter ‘about:config’
  2. Click through the warning, if necessary
  3. Enter gfx.font in the ‘Filter’ box
  4. Double-click on ‘gfx.font_rendering.directwrite.enabled’ to set it to true
  5. Below this, right click and select New > Integer to add a pref setting
  6. Enter ‘mozilla.widget.render-mode’ for the preference name, 6 for the value
  7. Restart

Firefox 4 beta 4 will be released on Monday which will have support for hardware-accelerated graphics!

Firefox 4 Beta 4 Releasing on Monday

Posted: 19 Aug 2010 10:17 AM PDT


Mozilla will be releasing Firefox 4 beta 4 for download on Monday, just days after beta 3 was released, Neowin reports.

Firefox 4 beta 4 will be released with two new features: hardware-accelerated graphics for Windows users and tab sets.

Hardware-accelerated graphics with Direct2D will not be enabled by default as their code is not that ready yet. D2D will make Firefox faster by helping in displaying texts and images.

Tab sets (aka tab candy) will allow users to group their tabs together into sets, such as ‘Work’, ‘Home’ etc.

Mozilla will release Firefox 4 beta 5 probably next month, which will be the last beta release before RC is released.

Facebook Places Unveiled

Posted: 19 Aug 2010 09:20 AM PDT


Facebook Places is the latest feature added in Facebook today. We knew this was coming as the rumours had been circulating for a while now.

Places is all about location services and how Facebook users can utilize it. Facebook Places allows you to check-in places just like you do with Foursquare.

Foursquare, Gowalla and Yelp are the launch partners of Facebook Places which will use the new API of Facebook Places and you check-ins will show up at the Places page on Facebook. Places lets you easily share where you are, what you’re doing and the friends you’re with right from your mobile.

  • Check in and your update will appear on the Place page, your friends’ News Feed and your Wall.
  • Tag the friends you’re with so they can be part of your update.
  • Appear in “Here Now” to friends and others nearby who are also checked in.
  • Browse status updates of friends checked in nearby.
  • After checking in, tap “Here Now” to see who else is checked in where you are.

One thing to remember here is, you have to use Facebook Places to allow your friend to tag you and check-in places when you’re with him. If you’re already using Places, it’s like you checked in yourself without having to do a thing. If you’re not using Places yet, it’s just like being mentioned in a status update.

Facebook Places is now available on Facebook for iPhone 3.2 app which just got updated with the launch of Places. Facebook for Android and BlackBerry will get this feature soon.

Places will soon go live on http://www.facebook.com/places.
