Epic Browser: Browser built on Mozilla for multilingual Indians
Posted on | July 31, 2010 | No Comments
This is why I like Free and Open Source software (FOSS). A Bangalore based start-up called Hidden Reflex has launched a browser called Epic Browser which is based on Mozilla Firefox.
In India, majority of the population don’t speak English or Hindi as their first language. This browser will be a boon to them. Users just have to type their word phonetically in English and it translates into the default language selected for the browser.
Other features include in-built anti virus as Indians are trigger happy downloaders, especially of free stuff.
In-built word processor.
It has greater privacy controls. You can delete cookies in one click.
Indianised wallpapers and themes.
Twelve local languages and many more to come.
You can choose to receive regional news on its favourites tab which includes your favourite social networking and bookmarking sites and popular cricket and bollywood sites..
Here is the screenshot with my favourite actress.
You can download this browser here currently only for Windows (Mac and linux will be launched soon).
