The new Digg.com

Digg has just unveiled a new format on their website (very Flipboard like), and a new iPhone app.

Mozilla releases Firefox 14.

Firefox Blog:

Firefox has new features that make browsing more secure and Web applications like games more powerful.

We automatically make your Google searches secure in Firefox to protect your data from potentially prying eyes, like network administrators when you use public or shared WiFi networks. Google is currently the only search engine that allows Firefox to make your searches private, but we look forward to supporting additional search engines with this feature in the future.

Also, it now properly supports Full Screen Mode on Lion.

Hackers publish 453,000 emails and passwords allegedly stolen from Yahoo

Computerworld:

A group of hackers on Thursday published a list of  more than 453,000 log-in credentials on the Internet that were allegedly stolen from a database associated with an unnamed Yahoo service.

The group of hackers calls itself “the D33Ds Company” and claims to have hacked into the database by exploiting an SQL injection vulnerability found on a Yahoo subdomain.

We can have all the security in place on our side, but if the people running the service sleep on the wheel, we’re screwed.

Chrome on iOS, my opinion so far…

Google announces Chrome for iPhone and iPad, available today

The only downside to this, it can’t be set as default.

Apple owns 74% of smartphone web traffic, 95% of tablet traffic

BGR:

Chitika found that a whopping 95% of tablet Web traffic came from a version of Apple’s iPad, mainly the newest iPad, and 72% of smartphone traffic also belongs to Apple, compared to 26% for Android devices.

Do Android users know that their phones can browse the web? This is such a weird thing. Report after report says that despite Android selling more and more devices every day, with hundreds of models from so many manufacturers, still iOS dominates web browsing. I’ve heard some speculate that most Android buyers really don’t know what they are buying, and that they just get what the store employee tells them and then basically just play games and use it as a phone (as they did with a feature phone, not a smartphone). Whatever it is, it’s really weird, so many freaking phones and not using them to their potential, especially with bigger screens like the ridiculous Galaxy Note. It just doesn’t add up.

Yahoo! launches Axis, a browser for desktop iPhone and iPad.

Larry Page: Facebook keeps its users hostage.

This clown said this at the Charlie Rose show:

Since when is Google the absolute guardian of all things internet? This guy is one of the biggest hypocrites I’ve ever seen. Hey Larry, Zuckerberg beat you at the social game, suck it. You tried to create something with Google +, and it’s a desert. I’m really tired of all this Google Openness crap. Via Huffington Post.

Browser stats for March 2012, iOS users dominate mobile browsing.

Ars Technica

Ars Technica:

In mobile, iOS users continue to outnumber Android users, with the surprising implication that Android users don’t actually use the Web very much on their smartphones.

Do Android users know they have a browser on their phones?
