Exclusive: First Look at Blue Spruce, IBM's Next Generation Browser Platform - 3 views
-
-
- Uses the WebKit Open Source Browser Engine (in the demo we saw, Safari was the browser being used) - Uses the following Open standards: HTML, JavaScript, CSS, (All Ajax), XMPP, H.264 - Server runs on Linux, MacOS X - Utilized OpenAjax Metadata Specification, so it can utilize any widgets - It's being ported to IE 6+ and Firefox
-
To be clear, IBM is not developing another browser. The client part of this project is based on a set of browser-based open standards technologies. They will in time (2010 timeframe) be integrated into existing browsers such as Safari, Firefox and IE.

I run gmail in my browser to do 'alerts managment' something it does very poorly in concert with the variety of implementations of alerts from each socnet, this is something that can and should be improved
