Maxthon has launched its first cloud browser for Linux. The release is partly in response to requests from Maxthon’s users, but also because the open-source operating system has become speedier, says Karl Mattson, the company’s vice president.
“If people haven’t taken a look at Linux for a while, they should take a second look because it’s a great product. The chorus of people emailing us asking for Linux has gotten a lot louder,” says Mattson.
Pitivi, a free and open source video editor for the Linux platform based on the GStreamer multimedia framework, is now at version 0.93 Beta and it's available for download.
Because Bitwig is an application that’s sure to attract a lot of musicians, who have a disproportional influence extending far beyond the musical community, it’s news. If Bitwig leads musicians to try Linux, they’ll lead others, and that can’t be a bad thing for everybody’s favorite free OS. Now if only the plug-in vendors see it that way. Only time will tell, but there’s something in the air.
