This morning we launched the Google AJAX Feed API, an API that takes the pain out of developing mashups in JavaScript. Now you can mash up feeds using only a few lines of JavaScript rather than dealing with complex server-side proxies.
LEGIT REVIEWS TESTED AMD’s answer to Intel’s Conroe offensive. With the latest price cuts of AMD CPUs, it was interesting to see whether an X2 5600+, a sub-$200 CPU fare with Intel’s own E6300, which fits nicely into the same category. When testing in real world games, a surprise happened in S.T.A.L.K.E.R., where Intel took a beating. AMD took the lead in Doom 3 as well, while Quake 4 returned point for Intel. However, AMD demolished Intel in Serious Sam 2. Head over there and read a highly surprising review. But to see almost 50% faster frame rate in Serious Sam… even worse than Athlon 64 vs. Intel Pentium 4 in Unreal Tournament 2k4.

According to a recent post at ocworkbench forums, a chinese website called pcinlife has leaked a series of pictures of the upcoming card Radeon HD2600XT.
According to original the author, it is said that the board uses 256MB of GDDR4. The 65nm manufacturing process GPU comes with a BIOS dated Apr 4th. Max wattage is 80W or lower. There is no additional power connector unlike the NVIDIA 8600GTS. In one of the 1080P video tests, cpu utilization is lower than 5% on the average. That is amazing.
More information can be found on the forum post.
