Skyfire Flash-playing iOS browser 'sold out' - Computerworld. When Skyfire Labs this week released an iOS browser that promised to play Flash content, it seemed they had a hit on their hands. But few—including Skyfire Labs itself—expected the app to sell as quickly as it did. According to Skyfire Labs, its $3 Skyfire Web Browser app became the top grossing app in the App Store within five hours—far exceeding the company’s initial projections and forcing it to temporarily stop selling the app to reduce strain on its servers.

To play a Flash video on a Website, Skyfire uploads the video to its servers, converts it to the iOS-friendly HTML5 format, and streams it back to the device. This server-intensive process allows for the streaming of previously off-limits Flash content to iOS devices, but it’s vulnerable to server overloads if the demand gets too high.

Google URL Shortener for Firefox. Google recently released an excellent web-based front end to the link shortening service they provide, but no Firefox add-on to compliment it. Have no fear, because goo.gl lite is here. This simple extension lets you shorten long URLs, using the goo.gl domain with just one click – and instantly copies the resulting URL to your clipboard for you. Once you have goo.gl installed, all you need to do is customize your menu toolbar, and drag it onto your Firefox interface.

Once there, click the button and the link for the webpage you are currently viewing is shortened. As an extra bonus, you even get a temporary popup at the top of the page saying that the link has been shortened too – which is a nice cosmetic feature. Every link you shorten with this extension also shows up when you visit the goo.gl website. Old Version Downloads. Ramsinks. BackRex: Outlook Express and Outlook backup tool.
