Coming soon!

Alright, Icey here with some exciting news!

Our admin Viral Dragon has been working on a few projects. Soon they'll be available to use. What are they? Well soon, THL will have

• Its own web browser
• Its own email service
• Its own search engine
• Its own instant messenger

All four are coded from scratch by the man himself are are currently in beta right now.

Interested? :]

I honestly can't believe he has the resources and time to build an entire browser engine.

Is he just going to borrow and engine and build the Chrome?

And as for the instant messenger, is it going to be a multi-client, like Pidgin, or like a service like Windows Live?

And the Email service, is it an actual e-mail service, like Yahoo! Mail, or a client, like Thunderbird?

[Viral Dragon]

Austin.

I have time because I'm self employed thus I make my own hours.
That and I stay up basically 24/7. So yeah I have the time. I have the
resources too, because I actually started on these a year or 2 ago.
So...why this is hard to believe, I'm not sure.

Browsers are easy to make, it's the multi features that were hard.
Search engines, you apparently still think I'm an idiot when it comes to programming.

Now, the browser isn't already pre made , it's from scratch. Didn't you read?
From ground up. No pre made shit what so ever. I don't like using other crap that isn't mine.

The messenger is multi client (believe me, that took some work). It has multi threading capabilities
so you can do much more than pidgin or miranda or what not. Also, it'll have clients from xfire, msn
yahoo, aim, thl, and other client services that have messengers or some form of it. if you want something
added to it, then please submit a request.

The email service s an actual actual email service. Not a client. It'll be exactly like hot mail, yahoo and what not.
you'll be able to login, check it blah blalh, just like you would hotmail or yahoo. No downloading (unless you want
me to make a down loadable client for you), it' just like hotmail/yahoo and what not.

the engine is also from ground up. like i said, i'm smarter than most people give me credit for.
everything is ground up. in multiple languages. the engine will be integrated into the browser
and thl, as will the messenger and email.

nothing here is pre made. all ground up.
i don't personally like chrome. it's slow and has no extensions. no themes no nothing. just a name.

In a short bit, I'll have Icey put up the features and what not of these new items coming to thl.

I'm not saying you're incapable of it, It just doesn't seem like any one person has a practical amount of time to spend on building a web browser from scratch.

And I didn't even ask about the search engine, it doesn't take much to build one.

Chrome, as in that stuff at the top of Firefox!
The menu bar, tool bars, buttons, etc.

That's how Google Chrome got it's name.
Because that was the gimmick, more window space.

[Viral Dragon]

Uhm, for the chrome thing,
it's half yes and half no.

[Chives]

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?!?!

[The Puppeteer]

Just..wow. I'm excited to see this new Instant Messenger. Make sure it's not a resource whore!

[Sunmoon]

*double faceplam* le gasp :O

Joo serioush >__< can't wait. Maybe u'll be in the news...

[Chives]

I can garauntee you thinks a no.

That is, unless Viral can actually build abrowser caple of bringing us into Web 3.0

Speaking of which, what will make your browser different from anyone elses?

what inovations will you bring?

[Viral Dragon]

That, my friend, will be in the next topic Icey post, which include features
and abilities and what not.
