<description><![CDATA[Microsoft&amp;39's Office for Mac 2011 is being featured as one of the headlining downloads in Amazon&amp;39's new Mac software store.(Credit:Josh Lowensohn/CNET)Despite being in the middle of litigation with Apple over the use of the term &quot;Appstore&quot; for its mobile application store, Amazon today launched two digital downloads stores forMac software.The new stores, picked up by The Loop, cover games and applications. Altogether, Amazon's got 252 pieces of software up for sale, the majority of which are applications versus game titles. Just like Apple's Mac App Store, which is how the company sells both its own and third-party Mac software, Amazon users can redownload applications if they somehow misplace the file. However, unlike with Apple's offering, there's no mechanism to keep applications up to date--something Amazon has left up to software makers. Some applications are also bundled with DRM or serial number authentication, the latter of which is not a concern on the Mac App Store. So far there's already a handful of software that cannot be found on the Mac App Store, including Microsoft's Office for Mac 2011, which is being promoted heavily. Microsoft has long offered it as a digital download through its own store, but not on Apple's Mac App Store. As part of the store launch, Amazon is offering buyers a $5 discount on any Mac game or software purchase through June 1, 2011.<br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Three years ago,Firefox 3 set the record for most downloads in a 24-hour period, cracking 8 million and positioning itself as a viable alternative to Internet Explorer. Firefox 4 released today to the public at large after 12 public betas, two release candidates, and nearly a year of development, faces a hugely different landscape. (Download Firefox 4 here for Windows,Mac, and Linux.) Microsoft's Internet Explorer remains the dominant browser. And in less than three years, a significant chunk of the browser market has taken a shine to relative newcomer Google Chrome.  Mozilla flips the switch from version 3.6.15 to version 4 as Firefox possesses more than 400 million active users. (Mozilla has opened a download tracker at glow.mozilla.org.) The new version of the browser sports several massive changes, including a radically redesigned interface, significantly faster browsing speeds, strong support for the still-in-development HTML5 and other &quot;future-Web&quot; tech, and competitive features like synchronization, restart-less add-ons, and tab grouping. You can read the official CNET reviews of Firefox 4 at the Download.com pages for Windows, Mac, and Linux. <br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Who determines the big topics of conversation on social media such as Twitter It&amp;'s isn&amp;'t the loudest bloggers with large followings of virtual fans.Rather, mainstream media tends to play the biggest role in the top &amp;''trending&amp;'' topics on Twitter, or those that appear in the top ten search terms on the service at any given point in time, according to a study by Hewlett-Packard&amp;'s research labs.a4AYou might expect the most prolific tweeters or those with most followers would be most responsible for creating such trends,a4 says Bernardo Huberman, HP Senior Fellow and director of HP Labsa4a4 Social Computing Research Group.That turns out not to be the case, Huberman and three other researchers found. User activity and the number of followers do not contribute strongly to trend creation and its propagation. Rather, Twitter users seem to be acting as a filter and amplifier for the trends that are written about by mainstream media. The results are not so different from those shown by Technorati, the blog-tracking search site that records which mainstream media sites get the most links.The main determinant of a fast-growing topic on Twitter is the specific subject at hand, not who tweets it or how often. About 31 percent of trending topics are retweets, or someone passing the tweet on to their friends.The HP team drew data from Twittera4a4s own search applications programming interface (API) over of 40 days in the fall. Analyzing 16.32 million tweets, they found 22 users who were the source of the most retweets when a topic was &amp;''trending.&amp;'' Of those, 72 percent were Twitter streams run by mainstream media outfits such as CNN, the New York Times, El Pais and the BBC. Most of these sites have fewer followers than Twitter celebrities such as Ashton Kutcher, Lady Gaga or Barack Obama.Very few topics stay much more than 40 minutes at the top. But those that do are engaging to a very diverse audience.Next Story: Zynga launches its flagship mobile game Words With Friends on Android Previous Story: On the GreenBeat: BMW readies electric car, Obama pitches $8 billion for clean energyPrintEmailTwitterFacebookGoogle BuzzLinkedIn      DiggStumbleUponRedditDeliciousGoogleMore&amp;8230'          Tags: mainstream media, Social Media, tweets, viral marketingCompanies: Hewlett Packard, Technorati, TwitterPeople: Bernardo Huberman          Tags: mainstream media, Social Media, tweets, viral marketingCompanies: Hewlett Packard, Technorati, TwitterPeople: Bernardo HubermanDean is lead writer for GamesBeat at VentureBeat.
