In my constant quest to customize Firefox I came across Safari like tabs and Sage. Sage is a lightweight RSS and Atom feed aggregator extension for Mozilla Firefox. Sage sits in Firefox’s sidebar and when you click on a topic, it displays in the main window in an easy to view, simple webpage. [screenshot] So […]

Since I’ve had success with Firefox I decided that maybe I need to check out Thunderbird. I had looked at it before, but never seriously used it until today. I decided to switch from Apple’s Mail.app and check out Mozilla Thunderbird. It’s a hard switch because it’s not the easiest moving from one client to […]

Mozilla Firefox is getting ready for a 1.0 launch in November and you can help out by giving a small donation, or a large one, to the community to cover advertising costs. By doing so, you’ll get your name in the full page Firefox ad in the New York Times. How cool is that?! You […]

I thought that today I’d lump a bunch of things together. — My new blog theme is coming along great! Check for it soon, hopefully before November. — Shapeshifter 2.0 is coming out next Tuesday.

We got our tickets to Rascal Flatts at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul Minnesota. The concert is November 20th and our seats are pretty good. The interesting fact is that I think, not positive, that the only reason the concert is when it is, is because the Xcel Energy center is trying to […]

Apple unveiled their new mini retail stores yesterday. The mini stores look much like their current stores, however they are skinner and contain fewer products. They may be smaller, but they make the same impact visually. Their stainless steel walls, seamless white floors and ceilings along with the glowing Apple on the front make them […]

I’ve been trying to do research to see what works better in search engines, sub-domains or directory folders and I just get more confused. When most people discuss the differences they either explain it in great detail that it goes over my head, or they give no real answers. What I want to know, is […]

Netscape turns 10 on October 13th and ZDNet has learned that they are planing on making a big comeback this year!! Netscape has been very quiet in the past years as Internet Explorer has taken most of it’s fans. However, things are starting to turn. Firefox is getting a lot of exposure lately and it’s […]
