With the video below, it demonstrates its capability of sensing where a presenter is located and allow him or [...]

This newsbit actually freaked me out. If you’re a paranoid-delusional, then this is something you’d rather not know. But then again, anyone who would be reading about this would become paranoid-delusional as well. Remember how Google apparently tracks everything that you do with them? Well, get ready for this – they’re making public how they [...]

I’m a die-hard Google-user and when Cuil Inc launched that they have launched a rival search engine called Cuil (pronounced “cool”), I only shrugged. But as with any new web technology out there, I was compelled to give it a shot. First thing about the announcement that struck me (aside from the fact that they’re [...]

I always prefer to connect and log-in to websites via https. They’re a lot more secure and is highly recommended for those leeching off free Wi-Fi connections, using Internet cafe terminals, and to those who are just plain paranoid. Previously, you can only do this by manually entering the https://mail.google.com in your URL bar, or [...]

Slowly but surely, Google is doing to the web what Microsoft has done to computers worldwide – monopolize it.

Articles or “knols” are written by authorities and experts in the [...]

Hey hey hey, take a look at what Google just rolled out. Google Docs unveiled a new feature that would probably be to the delight of everyone who uses it – templates. If you’re the type of person who would want to start typing on an already-laid-out page, then you might want to thank the [...]

I like Colbert but I think I missed this episode. While talking about phishing and malware and the dark side of the web, out came the great Firefox 3 plug and it got the Colbert “bump.”

We’ve been getting a lot of comments over the weekend from people expressing their disgust with Firefox 3′s new location bar dubbed AwesomeBar. Sad to say, we also share their opinions and are out to find ways to make it less of a bother. Here’s one other thing that might need fixing – the “Go” [...]

Quite some time ago, we featured Cooliris Previews as a must-have add-on for Firefox. Knowing what the linked page contains before actually clicking it does have its perks. From the same company comes PicLens – another browser add-on (though not just exclusively for FF, you can get with for IE and Safari) that redefines how [...]

Ever since the release candidates were released, a lot of people were raving about the new location bar. For me, probably I’m suffering from transition woes. Still, I’m not liking it at all. I feel that the new drop-down that features two lines per URL (the URL with the page title and a description if [...]

I have to apologize for the lack of tech articles for LifeSpy. I’m currently blogging for AutoJab as well and we’re trying to expand our horizons for that blog as well. The thing is, focus can be a bit of a problem. Tech posts need time and attention, so are car posts. Trying to stay [...]

If you want to participate, head over to the download day headquarters and [...]

Wow. It has really been a very long time since I have posted anything Firefox, or anything tech for that matter. And with Firefox 3 Release Candidate 1 available to the public, this only means that we might just be back in business doing daily Firefox Quick Tips. But wait, how about some interesting quirks [...]
