Firefox adds VR support to its browser tomorrow

It took a bit of time but Mozilla is finally adding virtual reality support to its web browser. The Firefox 55 version will come out tomorrow, August 8^th. This web-based VR on Firefox will come to all Windows users that have HTC Vive or Oculus Rift headset. Mozilla has been working on this for a while with a standard called WebVR, which lets browsers run virtual-reality experiences. It’s already available through Firefox’s pre-release version, Firefox Nightly, as well as limited availability in Servo, a browser engine built by individual developers and sponsored by Mozilla.

Aside from adding VR support, Firefox 55 will add a new tool called Firefox Screenshots. While still in beta when it comes out, this feature will automatically save your screenshots to the cloud and then copies these to your clipboard. These screenshots have an expiration date of two weeks unless you manually set it to last longer.

Google tries out putting search results within search results

Google is known to try out certain features with a small group of users to see the reception for the feature and whether it warrants a wider release. One of the new features that’s popped up on Google Search app on mobile was reported by 9to5Google’s Justin Duino. It shows additional results from a pop-up window after you look for a particular thing or term. He tried looking up the price of a product and then some sort of pop-up cards, like you’d see with Google Assistant showed up at the bottom of his screen with the words: “People also view.” Duino was running 7.8.17.21 version of Google’s app. You can see what the pop-up search results look like in the image above.
