Yahoo Wednesday became the latest company to provide developers with the opportunity to build rich Internet applications with some desktop functions with its unveiling of a preview version of a new offering called BrowserPlus . The software, which in this so-called "sneak peek" release only works on Yahoo sites, helps developers build applications that allow users to do things like drag and drop from the desktop, easily upload files and receive native desktop notifications while inside the browser, Yahoo said. Yahoo said the preview version, which was developed by a small team over the past year, will let it gain input from developers. The final version of the software will support any Web site, Yahoo said. It did not say when the final version of BrowserPlus will be available.http://www.infoworld.com/article/08/05/28/Its-Yahoos-turn-to-bring-desktop-features-to-browser_1.html
