Sometimes, you have to think what’s more important: speed or features. This time, I’m not talking about Firefox and IE, but rather about Outlook and Thunderbird. I’ve been using Outlook for a time now, but I’m thinking seriously of going back to Thunderbird. In fact, it’s going to be the first thing I’ll do when I get at home. Nowadays, most decent antivirus software and antispam software works together with Thunderbird, and since all of [...]
It’s a common thing lately… Everybody prefers another browser. I’ve been using Firefox from before the 1.0 release, and I haven’t regret using it yet. In a time when tabbed browsing was new and only a few browsers had it, it was an enlightenment to get a nice browser that was able to do that. I remember that I used both Slimbrowser as well as Firefox in those days, but Slimbrowser disappeared to the bin [...]
Since a short while there has been a new “preview” version of IE9 available. It lacks a good GUI, but it should give us an example of how it’s going to be. And I’ve taken the liberty to test it and my conclusion is: it sucks! I’ve tested it by opening this page in both Firefox and in the preview in split screen. Firefox opened the page in a few seconds while the preview of [...]
After a lot of requests, I’ve finished the first update of NightShade. This update simply enables the favicons on the bookmarks panel of your Firefox. Hope you guys like this update, as I got a lot of requests to do this – and I’m only to happy to do it. I’m sorry that it has taken so long, but I’ve had some serious problems with my Firefox (it was eating CPU, going up to 90% [...]
First of all, sorry for my lack of posting lately. Have been busy, you know Secondly, I got quite a bit to say… NightShade has been reviewed on Firefox Addons, and has been published , so it’s no longer an “experimental” theme. Expect the first update, to add favicons before the names of sites in the bookmarks-bar, in the next few weeks… Above that, I also dropped support for IE6 officially. So if one of [...]
NightShade is a Firefox theme that I’ve updated to the newer versions of Firefox, after the author dropped support (or so it seems). You can download it from the Firefox Addons site or by clicking here. New update, 18/03/2010: added the much requested favicons on the bookmarks panel! You can preview it on the Firefox Addons site. Please post bugs here as comments. Kevin
I’m sorry, but I’ve decided it’s time to stop supporting the old antique browser Internet Explorer 6. As of today, only 13.2% of the visitors are still using this browser, and that’s not enough to encourage me to work so hard to get it working properly in this browser. Users of IE6 or earlier get a warning message now, but still can use this site. Only 0.1% uses Internet Explorer 5.5, less than 0.1%% uses [...]
