Extension summary

Official chrome extension for fossBytes - fresh bytes of technology and more.

The idea which inspired fossBytes was the need of an Indian technology website/blog which would be a unification and intersection of diverse interests. It aims at fulfilling all needs of people who are interested in trending science and latest technology news. Our tagline “fresh Bytes of technology and more” tries to address the same diversity.

We provide latest technology news and information about budding start-ups which could become Google, Facebook and Apple of tomorrow. Our latest technology news section focuses at features like mobile and tablet news, trending information about new gadgets and machines – ranging from a tiny hearing aid to a sports car, apps and software of all kinds and much more.

Our news section contains variety of things apart from technology news which happens around us and affect us. We give news about acquisitions and deals made by different companies, policy changes, growth and downfall, and strategies of companies in our business section. Our science news section covers topics like space news, nature, the human body, animals, latest inventions and discoveries, and new research work done by scientists. In India and world section we focus on Indian news and fresh bytes from all around the world.

Our special how to guides are one of the top visited pages of the website. These how to articles revolve around simple and useful tips to improve productivity of your computers, phones and other devices. We try to solve hot searched problems and queries requested by the users in this section.
