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 […]

The iTunes Music Store has added new shows for us to download. Most notably, NBC current and vintage shows. You can now download the latest Surface or go back in time and get Knight Rider or Dragnet. There is also a couple from Sci Fi and one from USA in the mix. Hopefully this is […]

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 […]

Statler & Waldorf From the Balcony is a podcast (and web show) that reviews the latest new movie releases in Muppet style. I just discovered it and it’s very cool. A must check out for any Muppet fan. If my link above doesn’t work, search iTunes for Muppet and they’ll show up. You can also view […]

Prefetching with Fasterfox is Bad

  • 1 Dec, 2005

It’s come to my attention that prefetching with the Firefox extension Fasterfox could be bad and causing extra strain on yours, and other peoples, webserver and possibly pocketbook! Fasterfox, in essence, is a prefetcher. It reads the page you are currently browsing and attempts to download all of the other pages being linked to. When […]

Just hit the foXpose button and all your tabs will appear in one window so you can select the one you want. It’s great to […]

Firefox 1.5 Mac Review

  • 30 Nov, 2005

I’ve been running Firefox 1.5 all day on my iMac G5 and the update hasn’t disappointed me at all. Here are a few of the new things I’ve noticed, good and bad. Fancy installer (dmg) on the Mac. Start up is slow the first time, but that’s because it’s upgrading everything. Be patient and let […]
