A while back Netscape 8 made a big buzz. It was all new and came with a cool blue/green theme. Now that Netscape’s buzz has run out, a developer is porting the Netscape 8 theme to Firefox. I’ve been running Fusion Alternative all day and it’s quite nice. A great looking and complete theme. Seems […]

Looking for good Christmas music.

12 Dec, 2005

I’m in search of some good Christmas music. Every year artists come out with Christmas albums and some are good while others are the same ol same ol. Sure, Winter Wonderland is a great song, but everyone does it. Same with All I Want for Christmas and many more. The classics are great, but some […]

How To Tell Firefox to Open a DMG

9 Dec, 2005

If you are running Firefox on a Mac, you’ve more than likely came across the problem that it has no idea what to do with a .dmg file. Ideally we’d want it to open the .dmg just like it does a .zip file and I’ve figured out how to do that. Here is how to […]

Christmas Firefox Theme

8 Dec, 2005

Just Released: Tinseltown – A full Christmas Firefox Theme. Since I’ve yet to find a nice Firefox Christmas theme, I decided to make a few easy modifications to Firefox to make it more festive. You can see the two modifications below. Now I haven’t created a full blown theme. These are just a few minor […]

Wanted: Starter FireFox Theme

7 Dec, 2005

I’m looking for a good theme to work with to create new Firefox themes. I hacked into a theme today and added in Camino buttons to create one nice, yet incomplete, Camino Firefox theme. So now I have the urge to create more. Course I don’t have time to. 😉 I can’t use the one […]

Decorating for Christmas

7 Dec, 2005

I’ve put up a few lights and added some snowflakes to the site this morning to help spread a little Christmas cheer! Let me now if something looks odd or there are usability issues. I use big monitors and a Mac so who knows what the PC world will see. 😉 Let me know what […]

Welcome Back Referrer Karma

5 Dec, 2005

Sad to say, but it had to happen. Referrer spam picked back up and I had to re-install referrer karma. Now the last thing I want to do is block out any real people. So, if you have any issues with this blog, please let me know so I can fix it right away. Hopefully […]

Burger King Christmas Song

5 Dec, 2005

And now to share something that will make you dumber. Have you ever wanted to combine Burger King and Christmas? Well someone did. That’s how we got the Burger King Christmas song. It’s not very good, but it’s very annoying and fun to share with friends. 😀 Have a listen to the Burger King Christmas […]

Pay by Fingerprint

4 Dec, 2005

We were at a local Cub grocery store yesterday and they now have the ability to pay by fingerprint! Skip the cash, checks and credit cards, just use the ID that God gave you. Now I’m not one to run and try this technology out as it’s a little early in the adoption stages, but […]
