'Yaay! FF3 has officially arrived. Well, yesterday it did. Granted, I've been using Firefox3 since release candidate 1. I like the new features, regardless of what they're called ("awesome bar"? Are you 12?!?)
Of course, did the fight with the extensions, had to lose a couple, realized I didn't use them really at all, so wasn't a big loss, found a few others providing nice features too.
AdBlock Plus for sure, Forecastbar for weather, Web Developer, Flashblock and FlashGet are pretty much standard fare on all my systems. Others loaded for specific purposes as needed. Found a nice theme too, KDE4+FF3. Pretty!
Anyways, I did my part, downloading the new .bz2 for each computer, so that's three votes from me. It's almost 9am (CDT), and their download counter shows 6.6million++... so they've beat their 1.6M record handily.
It's like Christmas this week... Firefox 3.0 yesterday (Tuesday, 17 June) and OpenSUSE 11.0 on Thursday, 19 June. Ktorrent is idling, all warmed up, waiting for the signal to begin the heavy pulling of the install DVD/CD's.
I used to use Azureus, then realized I didn't use it but once or twice a month (if that!) and Ktorrent had an update that improved it substantially. So AZ went away. I lean on Usenet pretty heavily anymore anyways. (More on that later)
Yes, I ramble... is that bad?',
