Firefox will stop supporting plugins by end of 2016

Mozilla intends to remove support for most NPAPI plugins in Firefox by the end of 2016. Firefox began this process several years ago with manual plugin activation, allowing users to activate plugins only when they were necessary. This decision mirrors actions by other modern browsers, such as Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge, which have already removed support for legacy plugins. Moreover, since new Firefox platforms do not have to support an existing ecosystem of users and plugins, new platforms such as 64-bit Firefox for Windows will launch without plugin support.

Because Adobe Flash is still a common part of the Web experience for most users, we will continue to support Flash within Firefox as an exception to the general plugin policy.

OK Google' voice search removed from Chrome desktop

Google has stripped its Chrome browser of the hands-free "OK Google" voice command.

As noted by VentureBeat, Google got rid of the feature on the desktop because not many people were using it. The change does not affect Chrome on mobile or Chromebooks.

The "OK Google" voice command arrived in November 2013 via a Chrome extension. When installed, it allowed those on the desktop to speak their commands to their laptop's browser using the "OK Google" hotword. At the time, Google said it would be useful for quick answers when you had your hands full (like when you're cooking).

But turns out, it's more popular to speak to our mobile devices than our PCs. In the past two years, voice-activated mobile assistants, from Siri to Google Now to Cortana, have become more powerful and useful. So it's more convenient to talk to your phone than to have your laptop on and open to Google.com on Chrome, awaiting your command.

The removal of "OK Google" comes with the launch of Chrome 46, which also says farewell to the Chrome notification center.

If you've had your browser open for a few days, you might still be able to use "OK Google" on Chrome. It was active on my PC a few minutes ago, but disappeared once I updated to Chrome 46 (Help and about > About Google Chrome) and re-launched the browser.
