I just tried the beta of Google’s web browser Chrome. It’s super fast! I normally use Firefox 3 and Chrome is much much faster. Given, I run a bunch of add-ons for FireFox.

You can try it out here (for Windows XP/Vista only)

I see a couple of visual boo-boos on my site, but that might just as well be my mistake (I’m not as good at doing cross-browser testing as I used to be).

update: I’ve noticed that, though it’s fast, the difference isn’t as huge at home as it was at work. At work I have a Core2 duo processor and 100Mbit line and at home I have a measly Celeron and 10Mbit (+ I’m on wireless). It makes sense that Chrome, with it’s several processes, would run faster on a dual core processor. The lousier connection also affects the speed since response times are longer, etc.

Like last year, I’ve test-driven some cars during my vacation. I drove so (relatively) many this year, so I thought I’d write down some of my impressions. All the cars are the latest model. I drove all cars the same route which is a stretch of curvy road in a residential area where I used to live, then a very curvy paved country road, and last a stretch of highway.

Totally random. A co-worker sent me a link to this test. I used to be very fast at typing. I think I’m a little rusty.

Normally I order stuff from YesAsia regularly, but now I’ve made one order in 6 months. Here’s a list of stuff I want but can’t afford right now: (more…)

Jag har, nästan sen första början, prenumererat på Manga Mania. Ungefär en gång per månad fick jag en samling manga jag kunde läsa. Efter ett tag kom Shonen Jump som är en tidning för småkillar. Manga Mania var fortsatt den bredare tidningen. Jag gillar iofs Bleach som går i Shonen Jump, men där slutar det också.

I went to the cinema yesterday to watch Die Hard 4.0. I liked the movie, but I had a hard time enjoying it to the fullest because of the crappy picture quality. (more…)

Jag tog nyligen upp ett exempel på hur folk hycklar genom att ena dagen fördöma något och andra dagen tjäna pengar på det och idag läste jag i DN om hur Engelska kyrkan anklagar Sony för att ha stulit designen av interiören av katedralen i Manchester till sitt spel Resistance: Fall of man. (more…)
