The new theme is awesome, and the built in spell checking is great for dumb asses like me. It even knows swear words. Anyway after upgrading some of my old extensions no longer worked, so I found new one. Here is a list of the extensions I am using as of now. I use every one of them, and couldn’t live without.

Although I have been using spellbound for months now, built in spell checking would be great also. Anyway, in my resent change to Linux I have had troubles with spellbound. But then I ran across this dev version which after I installed the dictionaries I installed the extension, and everything works better than the older version. So if you just can’t wait till Firefox 2.0 then get this dev version and you are ready to go. w00t!!!

Update: Sorry I had linked to the wrong page. All fixed now

Yep back when you didn’t have great and wonderful extensions, back when you could download it and just run it. Firefox has come a long way, in the past few years. It has risen to take the world by storm. I believe the latest statistics I read, was the Firefox was used my about 15% of the people. But I will you thats not good enough. We need to make it higher. So if you don’t use Firefox, you can get it through this link. If you do use Firefox, this link has some good stuff for you.
Visit Download Mozilla Firefox
Also if you visit my Firefox tag, you can see the extension I use.

Have a good day, and remember, IE sucks.

This is a great firefox extension, it make your search thingey bigger as you type. Totally awesome. Anyway, Google updated Google Video to make it feel more like YouTube…who the fuck cares, YouTube is better…The shuttle went off…yay! the really excitement happens when it comes back to earth….Apple gets rid of their last CRT monitor computer…and who the fuck cares. Although this looks pretty cool. Ok Digg just sucks now, because I use Thunderbird as my rss reader, I can’t look at any of the news stories out of any section of Digg except Technology, because I have to log in….hope you 4th was better than mine.

Have a good day.
