Roboform2go - The USB ‘killer app’?

I admit it, I have dozens of USB pen drives, thumb drives, whatever you want to call them.
I get them organized, then forget what I have on them. I have highly specialized ones (like the IronKey) and lots of small generic ones. They can be found in the bottom of my laptop bag, or [...]

Why I switched to Hostgator

I’ve had virtual servers for about as long as they’ve been around. I remember being excited about a $99 virtual server back in the day. After a series of moves, I ended up on GoDaddy a few years back.
Mostly it was convenience. The price was better than I was paying, and I had 50+ domains [...]

Chrome losing it’s Shine

Chrome was the pretty girl from afar, but when you got up close, and got to know her, the old girlfriend looked a lot nicer all of a sudden. She was always there for you, dependable, knowing how you like to do things, and you can dress her up nicely (with themes). Chrome is sexy, but flaky, and in this case familiarity may not breed contempt, but it does breed a little disappointment.

Google Chrome Adblock plugin

Chrome is fast and clean, but I do miss my adblock plugin. Before adblock, there were other solutions, putting advertisers in host files, for example. Another solution is using a specialized proxy, such as Privoxy.

Google Chrome - I’m lovin’ it

I’m using Chrome now. For me it’s like a specialty tool. When I’m working on my SEO effort, building sites, marketing and promoting them, I use Flock. It’s got great built-in feature and lots of Firefox add-ins that support the social bookmarking world to a tee. But suddenly i’ve got that horrific browser interface I’d [...]

Google Chrome Javascript Performance

I expected improved performance, but had to be genuinely surprised by numbers like these. V8 Javascript was 2.5 times faster than Firefox 3.0 and 22 times faster than IE 7.0. Wow.

Google Chrome Update - Java Plugin

Google Chrome is supposed to accept Java plugin. It currently requires Java 6, Update 10, which is a Beta release and may not be as stable as what you’re used to. You can get it here:

The Google help forum says you should get an option to automatically download the option, but I can confirm that [...]

Google Chrome Beta - First Impressions

On day 1 of Beta (or so I believe), it works fine, looks clean, and I had no major hiccoughs. Haven’t stress tested it yet, but had fun with all the cool new features. And they are VERY cool. Pretty good first outing Google, kudos.

Can’t Add Image to Post in Wordpress

You might have noticed a shortage of visual awesomeness on the blog, and for good reason: I could not add pictures to the blog automatically.
Using the “Add media” button on the Write Post page would allow me to upload an image, but when I hit the button to insert the image into post, the window [...]
