Adobe released a public preview of Adobe Edge, its new web motion and interaction design tool.
Edge enables users to create animated content using web standards like HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript — not Flash. It’s the first professional-grade HTML5 editing tool on the market and is currently available for free, as the company is looking for feedback from developers.
The product, which relies on strict HTML standards and does not incorporate Flash, is not meant to replace existing web design tools like Dreamweaver or Flash, but to coexist with them, enhancing Adobe’s position as a leader in the future of Web infrastructure, especially as HTML5 becomes increasingly important in the world of mobile.

It takes lot to bowl over Sachin Tendulkar as bowlers around the world would confess but tennis ace Roger Federer managed to do it just by his knowledge of cricket when the two legends caught up during the Wimbledon.
Tendulkar, a self-confessed Federer fan, met the winner of 16 Grand Slams at the All England Club after the world number three beat David Nalbandian to advance to the fourth round of Wimbledon.
Tendulkar chatted for an hour with the Swiss and posed with him for the shutterbugs.
“Spent an hour with Roger Federer chatting on the balcony of Wimbledon Royal box. What a humble guy! And by the way he knows a lot about cricket!!” Tendulkar later tweeted.
The two reportedly also had dinner together after Federer’s match.
Federer too talked about his meeting with Tendulkar on his facebook page.
“Today was a special day, played a good match and had the chance to catch up with the great indian cricket star Sachin Tendulkar,” read the status message on his facebook page.
Here is the Nokia’s long awaited MeeGo handset, the N9.
The N9 is an entirely buttonless handset (with the exception of a volume rocker and camera shutter button), and is basically just a 3.9-inch sheet of 854 x 480 AMOLED screen. On the back, that polycarbonate shell is colored all the way through so you don’t have to worry so much about those ugly scratches.
Nokia’s new MeeGo-powered handset runs an OMAP 3630 1GHz processor and comes with 16GB or 64GB of internal memory and 1GB of RAM. The phone’s 8-megapixel autofocus camera is capable of wide-angle shots, and aperture of F2.2 for high-quality low-light performance, along with the ability to capture video in 720p. The N9 also comes with a quad-band GSM radio, a penta-band WCDMA radio, along with NFC, GPS, and Bluetooth 2.1.
As far as hardware is concerned, the Nokia N9 measures in at 116.45mm x 61.2mm x 7.6-12.1mm and weighs in at 135g. Battery life is said to last 50 hours listening to music, 4.5 hours watching 720p video, or between seven and 11 hours of chit chat. The phone comes in three color flavors, including black, cyan and magenta, and will come with an ambient light sensor, compass, orientation sensor, a micro SIM slot, and tethering support.
Along with Angry Birds Magic, Galaxy on Fire 2, Real Golf 2011, and OpenGL ES 2.0, the Nokia N9 also comes loaded with a Maps app, which will offer free turn-by-turn drive and walk navigation along with voice guidance if you happen to be driving. Other software specs include a Webkit2-based browser which features pinch-to-zoom support, and a unified center for Facebook notifications. Status updates and other profiles will show up in phone contacts, and the Events view will bring up Twitter and RSS feeds.

Handset maker Nokia is looking for a pan India coverage for its Nokia Money, the mobile payment services enabling consumers to pay directly from their Nokia mobile phones in India, a top official said.

An e-wallet is like a physical wallet that enables users to make electronic transactions quickly and securely, without cash.
“Earlier people were shocked to think that your phone could have a camera, but now everyone uses a camera phone. Similarly in a couple of years it will be a wallet in your phone,” he sid enthusing optimism.
Nokia at present has a tie-up for the e-wallet facility with Yes Bank and Union Bank of India, and the company is considering for a tie-up with other banks.
