In attempt to support Yahoo mail and delay the loss of free mail users from Yahoo to Google GMail, Yahoo has introduced YMail.com and RocketMail.com domains.

Over 260 million global users use Yahoo.com email addresses. New users face the fact that their names are already used by other users and they have to register rediculous names, such as JohnParkerNewYork74586@yahoo.com

Now Yahoo users have more options when registering a new account. Ymail.com and Rocketmail.com have the same features as Yahoo.com like unlimited storage, instant messaging integration and virus protection.

Even if you're not tech fan you have probably noticed a lot of news regarding the new web browser Firefox 3. All this is because of the initiative of Mozilla Foundation to distribute as many copies of the browser in release day as possible, aiming at world record. So, what is Firefox 3?

Firefox did pretty good job in design – it’s new, fresh and still recognizable. Besides, replacing its own graphical interface elements (as seen in Firefox 2) with system gives an impression of native application, both looks-wise and performance-wise. All the simplicity is also still there - five buttons, address string and search field, nothing more. But when you start using it you'll be able to see the difference. Take address string - it now has revamped look with more information about the site (including security rating) and, what's more important, absolutely new drop-down list with website icons, information about the page and various useful info. But let's get more into new features.

Totally reworked history and bookmarks is something that's hard to miss. They both now share the same look with address drop-down list and both have search feature to find quickly what you are looking for. Download manager now has some more functions like pausing and resuming downloads manually or automatically, visible information for the file being downloaded and ability to get back to the page from which download has been started. Redesigned password manager now doesn't have those annoying popup dialogs and has improved security. Regarding performance, which is claimed to be at least twice faster than Firefox 2, is indeed increased - pages load faster and browser itself consumes less system resources.

It could be all fun and joy unless some minor things. As initial release of major version with tons of changes, Firefox 3 tends to crash. So don't be surprised if you have to restart it after trying to load some content-intensive web-site. Luckily auto-save session helps to recover after such crashes, still not making them less annoying.

Most likely, it can take couple weeks and couple minor releases until everything works as intended. So it's hard to recommend Firefox 3 for users who are not starving for new features and just need it working. Although for those concerned about being on the edge Firefox 3 will be one of the best choices.

Undocumented feature have been found in FireFox 3! The developers introduced humorous feature, which is not listed in manuals of the program. If to enter in the address bar of FireFox 3 "about:robots" and press Enter, a message from the robot shows up:

Welcome Humans!

We have come to visit you in peace and with goodwill!
* Robots may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
* Robots have seen things you people wouldn't believe.
* Robots are Your Plastic Pal Who's Fun To Be With.
* Robots have shiny metal posteriors which should not be bitten.

And they have a plan
