A dangerous business... Coriolistic Anachronisms - A Vancouver Blog

Hi, I'm your friendly Coriolibot (as in "ro-bot").

It would seem Vince (shame on him) hasn't posted a fresh entry in a couple of days, so I am here to keep you entertained no matter what!

The post below is a random entry that we hope you haven't read before. Regular current entries follow. Enjoy, and come back soon for brand new posts!

Note: this random entry is served on a per-visit basis and will change if you reload the page. It will also not show up on regular RSS, Feedburner and Twitter feeds.

   Vintage! This is a random post. The year was 2005...

I’ve been using the very stable newest beta version of Firefox (1.5 Beta 2) for a few days now and more than ever love my browser. The final release of version 1.5 is expected later this year, but current 1.07 version performs just as well and everyone should check it out. Firefox turns the task of surfing the web into a pleasure. The tabbed browsing is awesome and extremely efficient; you can even reposition your tabs according to your needs. The smart search function highlights your query on the page as you are typing it. Skins allow you to easily change the looks of the program and extensions make it totally customizable.

Gmail notifier sitting on the status bar, scrapbook context menu option that lets me save a snapshot of a page as is, including Postdata, an fantastic bookmarks management window and the option to export them as an html file, an simple function that lets me assign a shortcut to any search field on any site and then do that search from the address bar whenever I want without even being on that site, an integrated Google search toolbar, opening mailto: links into my webmail, all of these are now part of a daily surfing experience and I love it!

Did I mention I like Firefox? ;-)
