Google Chrome: I was right

By Bulletz | Filed in Google | No comments yet.

In their Terms Of Service it pretty much says all your content are belong to us. I checked it out myself. Chrome is fast as all get out. It’s sleek, uses minimal amounts of memory, gives you the option to browse more quickly through your most visited sites…but since I have to give up all my rights to all my content, comments, or whatever I post through Chrome, I say NO THANK YOU. I promptly uninstalled Chrome *not that I was planning on keeping it anyway*. I was, however, planning to watch it develop as a viable application, but in light of this I think I will pass until they change their legal jargon so that it doesn’t include stealing my soul.

I cannot believe that someone sat down and made a more than twenty page virtual comic book to explain what it is that Google Chrome does. Holy crap! I stopped clicking “next” at page 21. Yeah it sounds good, but all our sites are belong to Google already. They have taken over YouTube and a number of other places that are visited every day, but they want to have it all. They are becoming like Proctor & Gamble. Sure I would like to boycott them because they give money to satanists, but it’s virtually IMPOSSIBLE to do so because there are so many products that are necessary for every day life that are made by that company.

Of course, since the browser is open source, I bet you anything that the people at Mozilla are ready and waiting to paw through the code so they can use some of it for Firefox 4. Internet Explorer 8 is about to be unleashed, but when this goes public I can guarantee they will be doing the same in hopes that IE9 will soar above the rest.

Chrome is supposed to be ready sometime today. I would love to hear what other people think once they get it on their system. As for me, I may or may not try it out due to the fact that I don’t want Google all over my stuff. I think they are the anti-christ come to bring about the real nature of “Google Earth“.

Invisibility Cloak

Never take things seen in movies lightly when it comes to gadgets. Scientists are really close to having the first invisibility cloak finished and ready for testing. I think it’s pretty awesome and extremely scary.

Firefox 3

By Bulletz | Filed in Firefox, Mozilla | No comments yet.

I did indeed download the latest version of Firefox, and since have also downloaded the upgrade. Talk about awesome and fast. I am totally in love. I completely uninstalled Flock in favor of the less bloated Firefox. I don’t really miss Flock, especially since my most important add-ons either still worked with FF3 or were quickly updated. I have not had FF3 freeze on me more than twice since I installed in on the 17th last month. Even my husband is foregoing his beloved Avant for my FF browser for some things he has to do on the net. Keep it going Mozilla. You have a winner here!

Download Day for Firefox 3

By Bulletz | Filed in Firefox | No comments yet.

Apparently they want to make a big splash with the highest ever recorded numbers for downloads on June 17th. I am marking it on my calender, just so I can see if their servers can handle the mass downloading. Mozilla is nuts, but they are doing a great job promoting the new release. I am still on release candidate 1, as I like it. It’s stable and lots of my plugins work on it. I will wait a few more days to download the full featured, complete version of FF3 and just hope that I don’t get punk’d in the process.
