So I am quite the lazy half assed person at the moment as you all well know). I have transferred my feedreader to NetNewsWire so that the numbers can rise accusingly on my Dock and I can’t avoid how crap I have been about visiting your beautiful blogs. Getting my shit together I am. I swear.
So there has been very little going on in my life that hasn’t sucked in some way. I either sleep too much or not at all - either way am too tired to be useful = luckily I work at a plac where everyone loves me (haha) so they haven’t noticed I’ve been doing my job with half a brain… or maybe they have and they are just being nice about it!
But enough of that whining… let’s whinge about something else for a chapter or two. I downloaded and installed the stunning Firefox 3 for today is Download Day! I pottered round for bit and thought, ‘Hey, I like it here!’ Good job, Mozilla! Remembered that I really should post something and came over here - only now my Wordpress Visual Editor won’t work, and yes I have posted to the Wordpress forum which means (if experience has anything to do with it) by the time I have finished posting this that some beautiful geek will tell em how to fix it!
But for the time being I am all about using Safari which to be honest I haven’t used in a while (do I feel bad about this? Not so much… it used to hate me but right now seems to have forgiven me and is curling up on my lap going to sleep… well, it’s not humping my leg - hang on wrong browser.
I have also realised that I have missed (by a huge huge huge margin) one of my favourite online holidays - Towel Day which was on the 25th May. And when I see that I did a meme on that day instead… Oh… I am hanging my head in shame.
I have also not written Writer’s Island post for three weeks. That at least can be rectified… and I will start tomorrow. Before work, after work and well during too… I’m on it baby!
Okay, Safari has behaved this long but I don’t want to push it so am going away now.

I’d been using FF3B5 until I upgraded to FF3 proper today. Not liking the fact that the URL bar no longer turns yellow when you visit https sites. I guess they changed that in the FF3 release candidates for some reason.

I’ve installed FF3 and everything seems peachy. WP Visual Editor’s working fine. FF did have to unstall some of my add-ons and update a few others, but nothing I can’t live without for a bit. Wonder why my experience is different?
I did Towel Day on Flickr! My blog was on hiatus at the time. I should have reminded you, so sorry!

If you have trouble with Wordpress after downloading Firefox 3 then I will definitely be up sh*t creek. However, I know I won’t be able to resist the shiny new features. Looking forward to this week’s story. I am a little behind too but plan to work on it this evening.

I used to have a tab extension that would let me set details about what should open up in new tabs and it would remember all my closed tabs, etc. I’m annoyed that doesn’t work anymore.

I’m loving it although I must admit I’ve never been a huge Safari user. Never knew why. Just didn’t. Too much Firefox love.

Kevin Spencer - Ours is not to reason why, mine is to realise that the problem I’m having appears to be mine and mine alone. Sigh, time for another cookie and cache dump!
SJ - After MANY hours online I am finding that the problem I am having seems to be unique - or at least no one else is posting about it. Going to do the things I don’t like doing to try and get it working!
I had Towel Day in my iCal and everything. I am a total doofus - next year… naked towel day to make up for it? There’s an incentive to lose weight!
Selma - You should be okay - I think it’s something I’ve done. I’ll figure it in the end! I am trying to find the creative something to do a WI post. It will come eventually!
Avitable - The plugin developer will catch up eventually. EIther that or you’re totally buggered.
kapgar - When I got my ‘baby’ I used it religiously but then floated back to Firefox… This is the first real time I’m using Safari 3 and y’know, it’s not bad. But FF3 is fantastic in every other way. I don’t know why anyone uses IE!

I hope the new version likes your website more than this version. Seriously; all too often when I come on here firefox crashes. However, what is even more annoying is that the videos on the Racing Post website appear to only be compatible with IE. Naturally I forget this, click to play one and get, “To play this video you must use Internet Explorer 6.0 or later.”

Right on cue - Firefox just crashed. I’ve just realised this could easily turn into a vicious circle.
Comment by yorksdevil — June 19, 2008 @ 12:34 am
yorksdevil - I wasn’t aware of any problems - will look at my validations and see where the nightmare is for you. I hate website’s that stick with IE - it is almost like they are saying we don’t care about anyone who knows what they are doing - it makes me hope for their downfall.
It crashing then is sod’s law.
