GO FIREFOX GO!

Isn't it great how the underdogs of this (virtual) world can stand up to the Goliaths by capturing the imagination and rallying the popularity of the people, even for something which most people don't give a second thought to, like your web browser.

The browser wars have been going for well over a decade now, and finally we have a serious contender in Firefox. Please, lets support a world in which the little guy gets an even better chance to stand up to the corporate behemoth, by breaking a pointless world record!

Firefox will get a lot of free press if they do break a record, and maybe just maybe, we can shake some sense into the corporation that brought us MS-DOS, Windows 3.1, Windows 95, Windows XP, Vista, Internet Explorer, and their funny box model, and now also Silverlight.

So please, spread FireFox, and contribute to breaking a world record today (17-18 June 2008) by being someone who downloads this great web browser.

Living in the future



It is products like this that make me feel like we are living in the future.

When you watch batman ripping up the streets of Gotham City in his batmobile that can morph and change shape, and then you see a real car like this, its easy to wonder about what the future might hold.
