Download Google Chrome with Pre Installed Games

It’s Chrome 10 dev. version that came bundled with two games Entanglement and Poppit, these apps appeared on New Tab Page since then we’ve not seen Google releasing Chrome with games preinstalled for their developer channel or any other channel, they may not release Chrome with games preinstalled for all users without users consent. There are many games available on Chrome Web Store to install and play, if you already have Chrome installed then you can try some games from Chrome web store, if you don’t have Chrome installed on your Computer and if you’re gamer Google made Google Chrome build that comes pre-installed with 17 games for you to download and install, we’re assuming it to be stable version.

Download Chrome with games like Angry Birds and Bejeweled Pre-installed Games in Chrome are Bejeweled, Angry Birds, Cut the rope and others.We did tried to install this build but ended up getting error message. You can try Chrome with 17 games pre-installed from here and let us know if it installed on your Computers.

Its easy for users to say pre-installed games Chrome version as bloat ware, rather than forcing users with this build Google perhaps made customized version for gamers.

Install Safari on Ubuntu

Ubuntu users lack the number of options available as compared to the PC or Mac users. Main browsers they can use are Firefox, Chromium, Google Chrome & Opera. In this post I will be writing a tutorial on how you can install Safari on Ubuntu. So, without any further ado we will start.

Install Wine

Wine is a known Windows emulator for Linux. It is used to run Windows programs on Linux. We will be installing Wine first in order to install Safari on Linux. To install wine you need to open up the Ubuntu Software center and search for Wine. Or, you can simply go to this website and follow the instructions.The install will take a while. Or, you can install it via the Terminal using the following apt syntax.

sudo apt-get install wine

After installing Wine you need to install core fonts and the flash (windows version) using winetricks. To do this input the following in the terminal.

winetricks corefonts flash

Install 7zip

Installing 7zip is our next step as this will be needed to run Play on Linux. Ignoring this will give you an error related to 7zip.

sudo apt-get install p7zip-full

Install Play On Linux

Play on Linux will help us create an environment to run Safari easily. To install Play on Linux you need to download it from this website. Choose the Ubuntu version as we are doing this for Ubuntu.

After installing Play on Linux, open it. A new window will open up which will look like the screenshot below.

Now click Install. Click Internet and then click Safari. Click Install.

Now the package will download some required packages and start installing Safari on Ubuntu. Keep following the wizard and you will have Safari installed on Ubuntu.

So, we have successfully installed Safari on Ubuntu.

2 Android Launchers for Android 4.0 ICS

What’s a good OS without a good launcher, The Android Vanilla launcher is OK, but with the three next, you will see for yourself. Whether they are better or the vanilla part. There are many good launchers for Android, but most of them have not been updated for Android 4.0 or Ice Cream Sandwich. We find some of them, which have been updated for the newest Android bot here. They good and also popular in the Google Play Store.

The vanilla launcher sure is better then the older counterparts of Android like the Gingerbread, Froyo and etc. But, some times we just need better then ever and here is where the new two launchers come to help us.

Its just 19:20 ratio of who is better then who. There are two versions of the Nova launcher, one is free and the other is paid. Where paid offers a little feature then the free version.

Sara- The Best Alternative to 'Siri'

Since the release of the iPhone 4S and its awesome intelligent voice assistant Siri, every older iPhone device owner has been trying to get Siri on his iPhone. As you know, developers have successfully managed to port Siri to older devices. However,it couldn’t be made public.

A while after, Spire was released promising Siri port to older devices, iPhone 4, 3GS.iPod touch 4G,3G but it required a Siri proxy and iPhone 4S authentication keys which is not an easy task for many users. A Vietnamese team has developed a new Siri more advanced alternative named “Sara”. In addition to the normal Siri capabilities like setting reminders making calls, Sara allows users to train it to accept commands. Sara is described as having an “open” brain allowing developers to create plug-ins for special commands. If Sara proves success,it won`t be long before we see a lot of plugins released. Another cool feature about Sara is that it works in a number of countries other than the US and it is available in 37 languages in only a month’s development.That is something that Siri lacks. We are not sure if Sara can indeed beat the almighty Siri,but we will have to wait and see in a couple of month how it would turn out. To get Sara, just add this repository to Cydia http://isoftjsc.com and download the version supporting your device.
