Speed is in the eye of the beholder. Rethinking the Progress Bar. If you can’t be fast, at least you can appear snappier with this simple mathematical slight of hand.
Worse than I thought. Looks like Google/Firefox released the lock on Rob Yates. That was fast. I did some research today, looking for a new (to me) car, and found out AutoWorld is also on probation. Blocked.
Putting the squeeze on malware is a good idea, I like it. But this one is going form 0-60 in no seconds. Is anyone on the Firefox team reading this? Please start small, give site owners time to adjust, and us users something to access in the meanwhile. I don’t like it when Firefox goes dark.
Connecting with the blogger generation. FeedBurner is running an ad campaign for a new blog that’s a teaser for an upcoming TV show (or movie, can’t tell). AdSense link: check. Blog with GMail address: check. Twitter and Facebook: check. YouTube video: not on the site, but a Google cache copy of the sight includes a couple. Brough to you by A&E.
I can has Shawarma? Last night’s food coma, brought to you by Wally’s Cafe in Emeryville. It’s a tiny diner, tucked behind a pub, run by the owner, and open late in an otherwise sleepy neighborhood. You just know it has to be good and cheap. Wrong. It was amazing. Best Mediterranean food I had in years, not to mention Lebanese, which is my favorite style. Did I mention how amazing it was?
