I’m not a big fan of full-screen browsing since I do keep a lot of windows open.

Seriously, Mozilla’s attempt to dub Firefox 3 as the most downloaded program met some kinks due to the “unexpected” wave of downloads. I still love Firefox but the fact that I can’t even get it via getfirefox.com and be part of the record due to stressed out servers is pretty disappointing.

10TV did an interesting undercover bust operation on three of the popular PC repair centers in the US. And it was very interesting what they eventually found out.

Nope and it’s not because they’ve won, but it’s because they conceded. It’s not like the case of the Betamax and the VHS where the adult industry was the deciding factor. Almost a year of following this issue and it seems like we have a winner in Blu-ray. Good news for Sony indeed after [...]

As a discourse analyst by trade, I have been fascinated by language and the Internet. For me, leet has always been the register of gamers and of hackers.

Uh… Okay. The Wall Street Journal reports that Google’s storage service is just around the corner.
