Having bought minecraft I did enjoy the game so far more than many games to the point I did buy a private server. But something wrong with this Game some game server of MMORPG’s run with 10 times the userbase and 10 times less ressources. I know Minecraft is in Beta yet its unrealistic that such a game use over 6GB of ram for 30 users around when I can run over 600 players on a Private server such as Lineage or Ragnarok Online.

Unfortunately the only servers running in C++ don’t have much plugins or are far from been fully functionnal.

Which means, that until a new server software opensource that have fully functionnal capacity is setup the server will not be able to run without running out of memory on my 3GB ram dedi box.

There something wrong with the coding to begin with but also JAVA, remember how much RAM Azureus use compared to Utorrent or Transmission or other Torrent engine? Java is been mostly used because of it’s multi-platform capacity and the amount of people that know how to code in java too.

Coding Minecraft server in C++ shouldn’t be so hard for a full team of programmers in multiplatform since most projects done by a ‘’one man’’ work is already multi-platform.

Do you think that a server of such a game like Minecraft should be using that much memory and processor?

Mozilla Foundation have been around for 10 years. They goal is to promote opensource software. Even thought they claim they are non-profit they still earn a lot of money from Google with every search made by users using firefox browser.

In this page i list most of the Mozilla applications that are been developped and that i have tryed in the past. Most of them are still been used by me thought. I will also list some applications based off mozilla but that aren’t opensource or from the mozilla foundation.

Let’s start with the Browsers stuff.

Mozilla Firefox

First of all i must say even the icon is appealing isn’t that cute? Anyway firefox is not only cute but is also heavily modifiable with Addons Module. Your a blog writer you have multiple blogs? Then use the extension scribefire. You want to keep track of your bookmarks online? Then use the del.icio.us addons. ( They are many others but del.icio.us is the most known )

With the new firefox 3.0 and up releases firefox have a smart query inside the navigation box if you input the name of a site that u already visited he will list similar sites with the name in the url or the title of that page. ( see below )

The browser offer security , anti-popup , themes , addons , extension and whats even more cool it runs on every Operating system. Mac windows or Linux In many different languages you can see for yourself here.

You can also get more details about the feature here.

Flock

http://flock.com

Let me say flock is a copy of Firefox BUT heavily modify.

Flock is based on social and blogging and i must say it’s really awesome not only does it support most of the addons for firefox but it also outclass many of them for example the del.icio.us addon is useless under Flock you also don’t need to install a image uploader addons to social sites.

Flock make a priorities of Yahoo services instead of Google. Even thought Google have most of the awesomes services FlickR and MyBlogLog are owned by Yahoo.

What flock does?

Seamonkey was the one i was using in firefox early days i enjoy more the use of Thunderbird and Firefox combined together than this suit. Instead of Chatzilla i use Irssi but anyway thats my choice you might like Seamonkey i noticed a faster speed on it than firefox.

Seamonkey is also developped by Mozilla Foundation and is also opensource which allow you to grab the source code and even more.

Songbird

Il add more info on Prism later on another app by mozilla.

Après un long moment de recherche pour le support Vidéo des ipods sous Linux j’avais finalement laissé tomber. C’est alors que sur un forum on parlais de SongBird un media player avec navigateur intégré et des extensions de support Ipod. J’ai alors décidé de l’essayer. Après un moment tout ce qui était relié a ce logiciel libre me charma.

Premièrement la Mascotte….

Celle-ci fait très web 2.0 disons.

Elle sort de l’ordinaire comme plusieurs logiciels opensource, contrairement au mascottes de compagnie majeur tel que le logo de Microsoft ou Macromedia et autres.

Deuxièment, la simplicité et l’usage de ressource.

L’installation ce fût en une seule décompression dans un dossier de mon choix. Bien entendu pour les élitiste qui recherche absolument a l’avoir dans leur package manager sous debian ou autres ce dernier est un logiciel opensource donc compiler un .deb des sources est possible.

Pour ce qui est des ressources si vous êtes un usagé windows il prend moins de ressource que Itunes et offre toutefois plus d’options.

Au premier lancement vous recevez un menu avec quelques questions d’installations rien de très compliqué.

Troisièment, la recherche de musique et le téléchargement de celle-ci.

Bien que le moteur de recherche soit un moteur http et que n’importe qui avec un navigateur pourrais télécharger de ces sites celui-ci est très bien fait. Vous pouvez voir la page par défaut de l’application au démarrage ici .

Quatrièment, tout le reste.

Que ce soit le support des radios shoutcast intégré. Le support ipod, la gestion de la langue, les extensions téléchargeable aussi simple que firefox. Le Navigateur Gecko a même le média player. Le gestionnaires de mise a niveau au départ même de l’application en 1 seule click.

Le plus charmant c’est qu’il est disponible pour windows , linux , mac. Pour plus d’informations vous pouvez visiter le site qui est en anglais. GetSongBird

Essayer le il en vaut la peine! ( Navigateur ultra rapide et media player tout en 1! )
