Here you will find blurbs about what ever flies off my head at the time. You will also find lots of cool behind the scene stuff from DeepRockDrive including pics, video and other cool tidbits about the bands you love that you cannot find anywhere else on the web: backstage and up close and personal directly with the artists!

Firefox 3 Beta 5 Release Looks pretty sweet! I am pretty excited to see what they have in store in this release. A couple adjustments that I find attractive: New SSL error pages: clearer and stricter error pages are used when Firefox encounters an invalid SSL certificate. Add-ons and Plugin version check: Firefox now automatically checks add-on and plugin versions and will disable older, insecure versions. Effective top-level domain (eTLD) service better restricts cookies and other restricted content to a single domain. New Download Manager: the revised download manager makes it much easier to locate downloaded files, and you can see and search on the name of the website where a file came from. Your active downloads and time remaining are always shown in the status bar as your files download. Resumable downloading: users can now resume downloads after restarting the browser or resetting your network connection. Optimized Open in Tabs behavior: opening a folder of bookmarks in tabs now appends the new tabs rather than overwriting. (I’m a tab addict) Star button: quickly add bookmarks from the location bar with a single click; a second click lets you file and tag them. Tags: associate keywords with your bookmarks to sort them by topic. Speed: improvements to our JavaScript engine as well as profile guided optimizations have resulted in continued improvements in performance. Compared to Firefox 2, web applications like Google Mail and Zoho Office run twice as fast in Firefox 3 Beta 5, and the popular SunSpider test from Apple shows improvements over previous releases. Memory usage: Several new technologies work together to reduce the amount of memory used by Firefox 3 over a web browsing session. Memory cycles are broken and collected by an automated cycle collector, a new memory allocator reduces fragmentation, hundreds of leaks have been fixed, and caching strategies have been tuned. Reliability: A user’s bookmarks, history, cookies, and preferences are now stored in a transactionally secure database format which will prevent data loss even if their system crashes. Lemme know what you think!
