So Google's new browser Chrome just made it out of beta recently and jumped on the scene at version 1.0 and currently grabs 1.08% of the browsing market.

So after I had some requests, I looked into porting Firefox themes to Flock. From the looks of it, it shouldn't be very difficult. The problem seems to be with Flock not being finished yet. So, on the Flocker website I offer some details on what I did and ask anyone willing to give it a sho...

I've updated both the Mac and PC versions of Flocker . The new versions now support both RDF syntaxes which means more extensions can be converted for Flock. BIG NEWS! I managed to tweak my OS X version of Flocker to get it to compile for Linux. It worked, albeit with some flaws. Give it a shot...

If you saw my post yesterday, you saw that I figured out how to get most Firefox extensions to work with Flock . It involved some unzipping, pasting of XML, and re-zipping. Well, I made it easier. Download Flocker and all you have to do is drag and drop a downloaded Firefox extension (a .xpi f...

There's a new web browser entering the "market.” Okay, so it's not so much a new browser since it's just a modified FireFox, but it throws in some great plusses. It's called Flock and it's coming to you soon. First, we'll straight-up compare it to other browsers, including FireFox. Fir...

AOL keeps buying stuff. They merged with Time-Warner a while back. They bought that shitty player Spinner. They bought out Nullsoft, the company behind WinAmp and Shoutcast. They bought Weblogs, Inc. this past week. I'm sure there's more. Anyways, Rolling Stone has a really good article about Just...

I found this gem on BoingBoing today. Good to see he's getting orders from the same place our enemies are. BTW… through the miracle of PSP Radio I can now stream my music anywhere. I'm considering setting up a radio station. Maybe using one of the PCs here at the office… Anyways...

I added a new site feature. Under the top blog entry (either the newest one, like this one, or when you search or do a category or archive listing) you'll see that the Daily Map link has been replaced with a Visual Blog link. The Visual Blog will take that blog post, parse out the text and creat...

So, I have a new phone through work. I've had it for like three months, but I've also had my old personal phone as well. I finally got around to cancelling my old phone, so my old 913 number won't work anymore after the 19th. I called everyone in my contacts to alert them, but I may not have gotten...

I've been doing a lot of thinking about my life and my career and what I ultimately want to do with it, should my current venture turn sour. I realized that webdesign/development is where I want to be. And here's why: Information. The web is made up of billions of pages. Some pages are photoalbu...

I added a link up top there that shows you my latest Google Maps API application. It grabs the latest Hurricane Dennis coordinates from WDSU's website (http://www.theneworleanschannel.com) and other storm info, then plots the storm on the map. Upon clicking the map, a bubble pops up with all the st...

After a long haiatus, here is the newest version of frobba.com. I wanna say it's version 3.0, but it's probably more like 5 or maybe fifteen. This version underwent a lot of behind-the-scenes changes. For instance, I painstakingly and manually progmatically moved everything from the old database (c...

I'm posting from work. I've been writing code all afternoon and I need a break. Remember the online cash register software I wrote a while back? Well, I'm writing version 2.0 of it now. The first version was web-based, meaning it was a (complex) web page. It's effecient enough to get the job don...

Now that I'm home after having changed a flat tire on my car in 90degree heat, I found this bit of tech info: Apple is dropping IBM and going to use Intel chips starting in 2006. This is quite interesting as MacOS has run off of the IBM PowerPC processor for the past 11 years. On top of that, this ...

I'm, once again, redoing Frobba.com. I'm going to work on the layout first since that's fun and easier. Once the layout is done, I'm going to rework the inner-workings of the site and database access. I'm using the same lame code I wrote about 3 or 4 years ago. I've matured in skill since then, so ...

It's been an eventful week. My dad is still in the hospital. Tuesday (Wednesday?) makes two weeks. His white blood cell count shot up and the bleeding started again. As of yesterday, the bleeding has ceased, but the white cell count is still up. They suspect it's from one of the medications. He'...
