Published by Peter under Technology

I used this the other day when I sent Alex a link. Nice to read about it a few days later!

I love Firefox

Published by Peter under Computers, Daily Life, Technology

Good to see that the folks at Mozilla have made great strides to make Firefox a fantastic browser when it comes to memory management. It used to be that Firefox was a nasty memory pig.

Writeup of Flock 2 at ArsTechnica

Published by Peter under Computers, Firefox, Technology

Hands on: Flock 2 steps up the social browser game

I always respect the folks at ArsTechnica, so I figured I’d share this nice article on Flock 2. They mention that it’s still in Beta, and there are always issues with Bets, but, like the author of the article, I’m seriously considering using Flock 2 when it makes its official release. For now, I’ll stick with Firefox 3.

Firefox 3 is Out, and here’s a great guide about it.

Firefox 3: Power User’s Guide to Firefox 3

It seems that lifehacker.com puts out some great information. I ran across this on my iGoogle.com page a few minutes ago. I’ve been using Firefox 3 for quite some time now (as a supplement to my normal Firefox 2, Safari, and Camino browsing habits). As the releases neared release, they kept getting more stable. Now that I’ve had it installed for a few hours, I have to say I’m pretty happy about it.

I’ve also installed Flock 2 Beta 1… a great browser based on Firefox 3 if you’re heavily into social websites and sharing your media (like photos with Flickr, for instance).

Playing with Flock 2.0 Beta 1

Published by Peter under Daily Life

Just messing around with Flock 2.0 Beta 1. This browser really has grown up quite a bit since the first time I tried it about two years ago!

For the social website dude (person who uses Flickr, MySpace, FaceBook, Digg, Twitter, Pownce, etc), this is a great browser.
