Twitterment is a new Twitter search engine. More interesting is the way in which you can search two different terms and get a comparrision of their use. Here’s a sample of library vs. bookstore. Guess which one won.

Top 10 Firefox extensions to avoid?
11
Apr 2007
Computerworld has published a list of the top 10 Firefox extensions to avoid. Usually I find a lot of use in “top 10″ articles but this one was no help at all. I run six of the ten they tell me to avoid. (FasterFox, Video Downloader, PDF Download, ScribeFire, Greasemonkey, and TabBrowser Preferences) Granted most of the points they make are valid but they’re hardly reasons not to use them. As some of the commenters have responded, the article seems to be geared for you mom and dad with a computer at home. If you’re the person they call for help, you’re perfectly safe pretty much running any of these extensions.

Here’s a video of some network monitoring software that takes your network traffic data and presents it as a videogame-esque battle between good and evil packets. This would make network traffic monitoring a much more interesting chore.

DMV, part 2 of 2

Apr 2007
I ended up going back to the DMV yesterday after work as I’d head the necessary form had been faxed in by my ex. This time the experience was much more pleasurable. I was in and out in less than 20 minutes, didn’t wait in a single line and walked out with my new title, new plates, and a new driver’s license. Check all that off my to-do list.

In today’s unshelved. (I still haven’t seen 300 yet. Guess I’ll need to wait for the DVD at this point.)

This is most likely the most beautiful comic book cover I have ever seen. (The story’s pretty good too.)
