BURST Browser - Update Log
<html>
<p><img src="https://forums.burst-team.us/uploads/files/1475876935258-burst-browser.png" width="700" height="400"/></p>
<p>I am looking for what you guys want on this browser. I am adding a &nbsp;fully functional Download Manager, which hopefully you will be able to &nbsp;download files directly with. I am also going to include an AdBlocker, &nbsp;but that will take a lot of time to develop and integrate. Soon, there &nbsp;should either be a crowdfund campaign or asset released to help pay for &nbsp;the browser's maintenance, especially if I am going to host a VPN &nbsp;server. If you would like to donate, please send it to: <strong>BURST-WACE-5BXZ-4SL9-BC2B6</strong>. &nbsp;It is going to cost me $200 a month to run a server! I was also looking &nbsp;at making a Password Manager addon, which will keep your passwords safe &nbsp;in an encrypted file stored locally or on the cloud. This will &nbsp;hopefully add the extra protection you may need to browse securely. Once &nbsp;the BURST Cloud system comes in to action, I plan to add future &nbsp;integration so that the Browser can communicate with the cloud service; &nbsp;storing files and media is about to become a lot more easier!&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Things That Need Work!</strong><br>
I am currently looking for a graphic designer who can design the &nbsp;application a logo and some graphics for the User Interface. If you know &nbsp;someone, please let me know so I can arrange something.&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Remember: I am in-need of donations to help these things happen!</strong> If you want to discuss or have any ideas, please feel free to comment or PM me :) All the best,<br>

<p><strong>UPDATE (07/10/2016)</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Alpha version was released,</strong> you can check it out in here: <a href="http://forums.burst-team.us:4567/topic/1836/burst-browser-alpha-release/11">http://forums.burst-team.us:4567/topic/1836/burst-browser-alpha-release/11</a> <strong>I'm proud to say that we already bought a domain and </strong><a href="http://forum.burst-team.us/uid/1"><strong>@haitch</strong></a><strong> hosted it (Thanks man! xD) for the browser website</strong> which will have a page talking about this asset as well... The domain is <a href="http://burstbrowser.com/">burstbrowser.com</a> &nbsp;(It's starting to be developed so you guys will not see anything in &nbsp;there for now but you can sleep safe knowing we already bought it xD) <strong>Like we said earlier the next batch of assets going in to the market will be launched at</strong> <strong>Saturday 8th October at 6PM GMT</strong> &nbsp;and it will be a release of 135k assets at 10 burst a piece, this is &nbsp;the final money we need to get the project up and running until the 5th &nbsp;phase... <del><strong>Phase 1: Releasing the Alpha Version to community</strong></del> (Raised and Phase Complete)<br>
<strong>Phase 2: Implementing VPN, DNS, Proxy Servers and Burst Nodes</strong> (half raised by now and we are working on this)<br>
<strong>Phase 3: Pay someone to redesign the UI</strong> (we are already &nbsp;in contact with someone that could do this and the website development &nbsp;but if someone in the community could do it we prefer to pay with Burst &nbsp;in order to don't hit the sell wall in exchanges!)<br>
<strong>Phase 4: Make languages available</strong> (for this we will ask &nbsp;for the community help and will be a reward for each translation so i &nbsp;think this phase will be pretty quick to do in the majority of the &nbsp;languages)<br>
<strong>Phase 5: Test and release full browser</strong> After this release is sold out the only money that we will need to &nbsp;raise will be just for build a way of pay to users and generate income &nbsp;to the asset, the crowdfund we created will be exactly for that and i &nbsp;just want to remember that every donator at this development phase will &nbsp;be appear in the credits so if you donate to the crowdfund you will see &nbsp;your name over the credits of the browser, witch is something really &nbsp;cool ;P **Crowdfund thread: ** <a href="http://forums.burst-team.us:4567/topic/1816/burst-browser-crowdfund/8">http://forums.burst-team.us:4567/topic/1816/burst-browser-crowdfund/</a></p>

<p>Just a quick update. We have just purchased a new Framework which &nbsp;will allow us to redesign the BURST Browser. It will look more clean and &nbsp;minimalistic and hopefully you guys can see it in the next update! <strong>All of this is thanks to our donators and asset shareholders.</strong> We really appreciate what you have done for us and without you, it wouldn't be possible! :) The new Framework I will be using is called Bunifu. It will allow us to create transitions and our own custom UI. <strong>Yes, we decided to do things ourself!</strong> I will post example screenshots of the Framework below. Hopefully you will look forward to the redesign!&nbsp;</p>

<h2>UPDATE 16/10/16</h2>
<p>Hey there, I thought I should let you know a few things which are happening with BURST Browser.<br>
 As you may know, I have been working this Browser for quite some time &nbsp;and added things. I had tweaked the UI so that it is more user friendly &nbsp;and looks appealing to the eye. I fixed quite a few bugs which people &nbsp;noticed from the 1st Alpha release, so thank you to those who pointed &nbsp;them out. I have just added a settings page, which will hopefully be &nbsp;functioning in the next big update. If any of you know how BURST transactions work (if you know what the &nbsp;API is and how to use it) please let me know. I am currently making an &nbsp;API which will start an Ad Network and will require BURST as a payment. &nbsp;This will obviously be a small fee which still needs to be confirmed. &nbsp;There are also some tools that I need, but do not have the funding for; &nbsp;one of these includes <strong>ReSharper: </strong><a href="https://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/"><strong>https://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/</strong></a> This tool will improve my workflow and give me access to &nbsp;features/tools that will save me hours of time throughout development. &nbsp;If you are willing to donate/contribute for me to buy this software, it &nbsp;will cost me £240 ($300) for the first year, and then £191 ($233) for &nbsp;the year after. After the third year, the price drops significantly. I &nbsp;am not saying that you must donate, but it would be greatly appreciated &nbsp;and goes towards the project! <strong>BURST Address: BURST-WACE-5BXZ-4SL9-BC2B6</strong><br>
 (Any BURST left over will be put back into the fund for the project.) With regards to the Ad Network, users can pay a small fee which must &nbsp;be paid monthly to have a BURST related advertisement put on the &nbsp;Browser. In the future, I hope that this will be an automated system, &nbsp;where the Browser will pull images from a cloud storage server and put &nbsp;them in the Browser. In the meantime, feel free to prepare an Ad if you &nbsp;would like it published. <strong>How The Ad System Will Work:</strong> &nbsp;</p>
<ol>
  <li>The Ad must be sensible and show no explicit content.</li>
  <li>The Ad must be relevant.</li>
  <li>Any payment missed will be a result of your Ad being terminated from the Browser.</li>
</ol>
<p>At this moment in time, this is the only way I can think of doing it, so if you know anything better, please let me know. As mentioned previously, the VPN will hopefully be hosted by one of &nbsp;the BURST team, if that is still possible. We are still working on this &nbsp;side of things, as it is a major part of development. <strong>More Updates:</strong><br>
 Me and <a href="http://forum.burst-team.us/uid/604">@gpedro</a> &nbsp;have recently purchased 10TB each in Hard Drives, meaning that 20TB of &nbsp;power will be going towards our BBrowser Asset payout. We are still &nbsp;working on the plan about the dividends because this mining will be for &nbsp;backing the project costs as long as the dividends and growing the own &nbsp;Burst farm so the dividends could grow in the future side by side with &nbsp;the project. This will be incredibly helpful now, as we can move on to &nbsp;the higher pools with better payouts! With regards to payout schedule, &nbsp;that is still be unconfirmed. Our future plan once all Hard Drives are &nbsp;plotted is to be Monthly or Bi-Monthly. Me and <a href="http://forum.burst-team.us/uid/604">@gpedro</a> will have to take a small fee for maintenance, as our electricity bills are quite expensive! Thats all for the update, so thank you for reading and happy mining!<br>
