    Record Numbers Pinging Ping.fm Thanks To Apple’s Ping

    An interesting beneficiary of Apple’s launch of music-oriented social network Ping—social status updater Ping.fm. According to Seesmic CEO Loic Le Meur, Ping.fm saw a record number of accounts created yesterday (Seesmic acquired Ping.fm earlier this year).

    Could it be a coincidence? Definitely, not. When you Google “Ping,” Ping.fm is the second result under the golf equipment site PING (this doesn’t include News results). Apple’s Ping is actually the fourth result (not including Video results). On Bing, Ping.fm is the third result, behind the golf company and the Wikipedia page for Ping. Clearly, as people starting becoming curious about Apple’s Ping yesterday on search portals, they also found Ping.fm in results.

    Facebook Wants To Be In A Relationship With The Big Boys — They Want To Be Just Friends

    Yesterday, Apple launched iTunes Ping, their new music social network. Part of that launch was a very basic implementation of Facebook Connect, simply to hook in and find out which of your Facebook friends were also using Ping. I tried it yesterday and it worked fine. But this morning the option vanished and everyone was left wondering what happened?

    Well, it vanished because Facebook started blocking iTunes Ping from accessing their API, we’ve heard (just as AllThingsD and New York Times have as well). Obviously, there’s no point in having a feature that doesn’t work — so Apple simply removed it.

    iTunes Ping And Facebook Were Friends Yesterday. And I’m Still Connected.

    There seems to be some confusion out there right now about iTunes Ping, Apple’s new music social network, and Facebook. Some people seem to think it was never a part of iTunes, that Apple decided against connecting; while other reports say they think it was at one point integrated, but that it wasn’t working and has since been removed. I can tell you for sure that yesterday Facebook Connect was a part of Ping — because I used it.

    When I first loaded iTunes 10 yesterday and started up Ping, connecting with Facebook was the first thing I did to find friends. At first, I will say that it didn’t work. I hit the Connect button, entered my credentials, and nothing happened. But I tried again and it worked perfectly. I found a handful of Facebook friends who had just started using Ping as well and connected with them.

    Further, looking at my Facebook account, I’m still connected to Apple’s Ping app there. And so are 27 of my Facebook friends, currently. Apple has removed the implementation from iTunes for right now, but the app is still live and connected on Facebook.

    The software centerpiece of Apple's fall event today was iOS 4.1, available for free download next week. The new version of the OS delivers the expected fixes for problems with Bluetooth and the proximity sensor, along with speeding up performance on iPhone 3G (finally!). It also packs two major new features: Game Center and HDR photos.

    Game Center allows you to compete against your friends in any compatible game, unlocking achievements and moving up the leaderboard. It also introduces the possibility of live player vs. player games on the iPhone, with Push-powered notifications when someone challenges you. You can add friends or let Apple match you up with opponents. Existing popular games will be compatible with Game Center, too: Steve Jobs showed a screenshot of a leaderboard for the bestselling Angry Birds.

    Gmail drag-and-drop now works in Safari, too

    gmail

    The Gmail team continues to push HTML5 hard, and their latest efforts mean that Safari users can now drag and drop attachments onto their Gmail window (just like Chrome and Firefox users have been able to do for a while).

    The same goes for dragging images into messages. One feature that Safari users now have over Firefox users is that "new windows outlive the original Gmail window." This means that you can pop out a chat window and close the original Gmail tab, and things will keep humming along just fine. I hope that the final version of Firefox 4 will support this.

    StatCounter: Chrome Now Bigger Than Safari In The US, Too

    According to website analytics company StatCounter, Google Chrome has now overtaken Apple’s Safari in the US browser market for the first time on a weekly basis, claiming third place overall.

    StatCounter, which says it analyzed some 874 million pages viewed on its network of over 3 million websites in the US alone for the week 21 to 27 June 2010, pegs Chrome’s market share at 8.97%, ahead of Safari with 8.88%. Internet Explorer still dominates the US Internet browser market with 52%, followed by Firefox with 28.5%, still according to StatCounter.

    Worldwide, both StatCounter and Net Applications put Google’s Chrome solidly in the third spot, although the market share percentages differ between both companies’ findings.

    Whether you're on Team Apple or Team Adobe in the whole Flash vs. HTML5 brouhaha, you really can't dispute just how nice some of the new HTML5 and CSS3 features are, and while Microsoft was quick to throw a demo page up to tout IE9's capabilities, Apple for some reason waited until yesterday to post one for Safari.
