The internet is a pretty great resource for work or school, but it can also be an enormous distraction. timeStats is an extension for Google Chrome that allows you to see how you spend your online time. A few clicks will get you a chart distribution of your internet activity, a couple more and you can get even more detailed reports. The reports break down your daily/weekly/monthly activities with awesome pie charts and bar graphs showing what you did on which day.

In addition to porting over the new IE10 Chakra and JavaScript engines, IE 10 on Windows 7 also gets the Touch API innovations that help drive the browser on Windows 8; the security measures built into IE10 -- at least, the ones that are not dependent on Windows 8; location bar autocomplete; and the Do Not Track header will be turned on by default.

"Touch is the new fast," said Gavin, explaining that as the major browsers achieve similar speed benchmark scores, how they allow people to interact with touch screens will become a big part of which browser people end up using b... [Read more]
