the thoughts, opinions and recomendations of a Postgraduate Computer Science Student
Well at long last i might add i have finally joined the ilusive club of being an Ipod owner, all thanks to my mum who bought me a nice shiny silver 8gig ipod nano back from her trip to New York 
it was a really cool surprise, and a i got a neat cover for it too from my aunty Sarah too .
I know it is 1am in the morning when i write this but what the hell, i may as write what is fresh in my mind shouldnt i? Oh well i cant wait to use the Ipod tomorrow
Firefox 3 RC has been released, and its all good, and so much better
The best thing about this release is that it fixes the main memory leak which has plagued previous firefox versions which would tend to be needing a browser restart after an hour or so, this is so handy now especially when im doing research for University projects or working on a website for work.
Go download it here
Delicious, have updated the extension for firefox 3, its another good reason to use firefox 3 :). Find out here
It seem Microsoft after walking away wants to buy a portion of yahoo, well this could be a good thing, but at the end of the day all they are trying to do is to compete with the best search engine out there which is Google, you must admit Google has come along way from been a University project and now is very much a trend setter especially with all the extra services Google offers and Microsoft wants to get into that action as it were and make more money well what company doesn’t. But i would rather have Yahoo independent as it will keep the web competitive otherwise we will end up with what’s happening on the Graphics card market which is ATI vs Nvidia, which is boring as there is only two competitors, two or more is better for the web i believe, but lets see what happens, hope Microsoft bottles it and walks away again.
