I was cleaning up my computer and removing old programs when I came across Pogo. I decided to go to www.pogobrowser.com and check out the latest build. Much to my surprise, the website is gone. The server is giving a 404 error. I [Read More]

Pogo Browser from AT&T
Looks like another company is joining in the fight to unseat the top two web browsers. Others have come before, all have failed. See Flock, Avant, and Opera.
