Microsoft shows off Internet Explorer 10 running on 1GHz ARM at MIX developer conference
After painfully long updates between IE6, IE7, and IE8, Internet Explorer 9 was given notice it's successor is on the way. IE10 will bring CSS3 support, HTML5 support, and a few W3C APIs.
Typical for Microsoft, they were pretty tight lipped about the future of IE except to take a potshot at Chrome (and also Firefox) nothing that faster cadence (releasing more versions more often) does NOT mean more progress. True, but ideally it means more frequent security updates so...
The amazing thing about this preview was that IE10 (and therefore the version of Windows 7 running on the demo rig) was written to run on ARM. Exciting news.

Amazon Launches Online Music Streaming Service
Simply upload your music to Amazon's servers and play them via the web or via Android. The new service dubbed Cloud Player works with the current Cloud Drive service which allows users to store any data up to 5 GB for free.
Google and Apple are rumored to be working on their own cloud-based players, but with the launch of Cloud Player, Amazon is the first to market.
Cloud Player works extremely well with the Amazon MP3 store, but can also handle music from post-DRM iTunes as well as other unencrypted music sources.
Cloud Player does not blow your mind, but rather gets the job done simply. Hopefully, this is an early release with more features to come.
