  • How and Why Do I Clear a Web Browser's Cache? When a Web
    How and Why Do I Clear a Web Browser’s Cache? When a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Chrome, or Safari) is used to visit a website, the browser “caches” (stores) information regarding the site (e.g. items or pages viewed, listened to, or purchased), so the browser doesn’t have to retrieve the information from the original location every time the same page or file is accessed. This helps speed a web search. IMPORTANT TIP: It is important to “clear the cache” and, sometimes, a web browser’s “history” in order to avoid error messages when accessing sites or loading software. Now that many applications, such as Datatel UIWeb, WebAdvisor, and Live 25, used here at WSU are web-based, this has become an occasional issue. Web browsers usually are set to allow only a specific amount of storage for the cached “temporary Internet files”. If the specified limit is reached, error messages might prevent a user from accessing a desired site or web-based application. While visiting a web site, a “cookie” is created by the browser and stored on a user’s computer. Cookies store information about the user, such as login information for the site, selected shopping items, and provides the information to the website visited. Each visited web address is stored in the web browser’s “history”. The user can return to a site from the browser’s history list (log) or create a bookmark to easily return to a site. Browsers usually clear a computer’s cache and history, periodically, but it is good idea to clear cache, cookies, and history, manually when having a problem with a browser or when installing certain types of computer software if you don’t already do this procedure on a routine basis.

  • Maxthon Has Announced the Release of Maxthon Cloud Browser (Preview
    December 12, 2012 Maxthon has announced the release of Maxthon Cloud Browser (preview), which it says is designed to provide users with a seamless and unified user experience across multiple devices and platforms. Maxthon Cloud Browser works on Windows, OS X, iOS and Android (an iPad version is promised to be coming soon), and goes beyond simply syncing bookmarks to enable users to access and push web content such as images, videos and text to and from their other devices. I downloaded the OS X version on Monday and have been giving it a good workout. Essentially, it’s mostly Maxthon 3, which I already liked a lot on the Mac, although I’ve been less enthralled by the iPad version, which shares the disadvantage common to other third-party iOS browsers in that Apple obliges developers to use its proprietary browser engine, with the result in most instances being slower performance than with Apple’s system-integrated Safari browser, and no browser other than Safari can be designated default browser in the iOS. Booooooo. However, Maxthon Cloud Browser for OS X (effectively Maxthon 4) is satisfyingly speedy, and I’ve thus far found it completely stable, even though it’s a preview. “This rollout of Maxthon Cloud Browser marks a significant step for Maxthon in our development of a cloud-powered browser that integrates full-featured cloud services,” said Jeff Chen, CEO of Maxthon. “It is our mission and the focus of our innovation in this post-PC era when people are using multiple devices to access information, to lead the browser industry in giving users the ability to move effortlessly between their devices without any interruption in their browsing experience.
