Mozilla Firefox 3 Released

Posted on by

Firefox 3.0 was released early last week. So far it’s been a heck of a lot faster for me, though to be fair I’ve only given it about two hours of full usage and several of my extensions (my most important ones at that!) have yet to be updated.

Not to turn this into a Firefox vs Opera debate, but that is one of the many reason I always loved Opera more than Firefox… Opera “just worked”. I didn’t need to update or find new extensions for the key features that i used. Thsoe being the ability to move the tab bar (I like mine on the bottom) and mouse gestures. I’m disabled without my browser set up like I’m use to. Bah!

Xfire 1.93 Released

Posted on by

I haven’t posted anything about Xfire since 1.89 was released back in March. Part of that is I’ve been extremely busy, and part if that is because I haven’t done hardly any PC gaming in a long, long time. Sorry for the lack of information concerning Xfire. I’ll try to stay more on top of things.

That said, Xfire 1.93 was released on June 9th. I’m sure anyone who uses Xfire has already long since updated their software.

Trillian Astra Build 80

Posted on by

Trillian Astra Build 80 was released back on the 13th. The changelog claims to have over 100 entries, though most of what’s noted in the blog post relates to various Yahoo Messenger improvements. I just hope one of those 100 items means that it will no longer crash when I try to add a friend. That’s probably the most annoying thing ever. ;)

It’s Woopra Time

Posted on by

Yesterday (or the day before) someone on Plurk mentioned Woopra. I hadn’t heard anything about Woopra before, and come to find out it’s a web site analytics service similar to Google Analytics (formally Urchin). So I decided to give the service a go.

After being approved, all I can say is… WOW! This service really is nice, and after using it for a few days, I’ll admit, I like it better than Google Analytics. If you run a blog, or any other website I’d highly encourage you to take a look at Woopra.
