Can you eat a computer cookie??? NO...

When I started using the computer basically I never used the computer, I just used to open the Internet Explorer 6 and access my mail or some *&^%^&%$#^ websites., you know what I mean. Back then, when you don't want others to know what you have accessed through the IE, you just had one option to delete all the cookies and history from the browser. I just did that but was always worried what these cookies are???

Cookies are like a tag placed on your computer by the websites that you visit. It is more like a file that stores information about the site, the pages that you visited on the site and the information that you stored on the site like usernames, passwords and things like that. When you visit the same site again and if your cookies are still intact, then the website recognizes you and grants you access instantly.

These cookies fall into two types:: Temporary cookies and permanent cookies. Temporary cookies are cleared off as soon as you close the browser or a session but permanent cookies are stored permanently on your computer hard drive and even if you delete them will be recreated again as soon as you access the website.

You now have the option to allow or disallow cookies at will and you can play around with them. But having cookies disabled will greatly decrease your access speed on a website and just not that you have to re-enter any kind of information you gave in previously. Now you know what a Computer cookie is all about...

Firefox 4 theme - looks like glassy look is gonna rule...

Firefox 4 theme is out and its more like a glass bottle sticker rolled out for our viewing. There are lots of changes to the User Interface as well. Of course this is just a mock up which might be rolled out as early as Firefox 3.7 as well but this definitely is looking cool. There is a tools button on the top right corner and the home button and a gmail quick launch button are added to the tab bar which is now the top most bar in Firefox.

Several major additions and changes are being discussed to the UI for 4.0. Keep in mind these changes are farther out and therefore more in flux than ideas for 3.7.

• Merging the LocationBar and SearchBar
• Merging stop/refresh/go into one button
  
• Adding a Tab-on-Top Option
• Introduction of App Tabs
• Expanded Home Tab Functionality
• Hiding Bookmarks Bar
• Profile Stuff
• Removal of Status Bar

These are a few changes to list out. Head over to the mozilla site below for a clear crisp understanding of what you are gonna taste pretty soon and in the future from your dearest browser Mozilla Firefox 3.7 and 4.
