There’s a lot of chatter on Lifehacker and Gizmodo about how Chrome sucks and how it’s bloated and slow and Firefox is so much better because nobody remembers how slow Firefox used to be. The thing is, every browser is slow when u are using it for a long time. And since we do a […]

XenForo is a forum software created by former VBulletin developers. If you have used Vbulletin 3.x and then upgraded to 4.x you know why there are a fair share of 3.x forums out there. XenForo is simple and better and is not trying to be more than a forum, as Vb does. Recently I’ve moved […]

Got really bored and decided to reinstall my Windows7 on my HP Probook notebook. Fairly an easy operation, half an hour to install Windows, half an hour to install all other software and tweak it the way I like it. And while doing it I realized Windows is a piece of crap OS. It really […]

It’s not the CPU consumption. Not even close. It’s the faulty product. By the time you have red  these 20 words, a new Flash exploit has been found. And this is a fact. I don’t care about my phone battery, i care about occupying 100% of my processor after i have closed the tab on […]

I wish i said i am using my new macbook air, but i am not. I am enjoying my new sony vaio y series, the closest thing to a macbook. I really wanted to get one, i love the design, the simplicity, the features, but i couldn’t. The OS is too limited for my taste. […]

Let’s perform a thought experiment. By the end of 2010, there will be more than 100 million iPhone OS devices (iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad). You’re the webmeister at an important content site. The boss comes in and asks you why you’re not supporting the iPhone OS devices. ‘Our stuff is all Flash-based, chief, those guys […]
