It’s like the Electronic Frontier Foundation is Captain Obvious? It says web-sites fingerprint browsers to identify the users. The website anonymously logged the configuration and version information from each participant’s operating system, browser, and browser plug-ins — information that websites routinely access each time you visit — and compared that information to a database of…
I was excited to read today a Google Chrome Beta is now available on Linux. Gmail and Google Reader have weird font issues for me on both Linux and Window Firefox. So I tend split my browser load based on where the sites work best for me. Making the Linux switch meant leaving Chrome behind…

For this reason, as a web page designer, I keep various web browsers like IE, Netscape 4 and Netscape 7. Being a professional in the world of…

On a browser downloading spree… just snagged Opera. Next is Netscape 7. Any others I should grab? I already use IE 6, Netscape 4.79, and Mozilla 0.9.x. Tiny update… 24 MB download with some stuffturned off. Ouch! Thought I told it NOT to install RealPlayer? WTF? Why did it install? Have to uninstall RealOne AGAIN…
Windows XP sux. I like Windows 2000 better. Much better. One of the things that annoys me is how IE6 behaves. When I click on a link, the text on that line becomes smaller. Huh? Why? Think I am going to phase out this blog site. Maybe make it my backup for my Xanga site. Anyway,…
I like Mozilla. Found Blogzilla, a blog by one of the developers. He had all kinds of tricks. My favorite is the ability to reject pictures from known advertisers. With the right click menu I can add to this list.
