Just a Leaf

For the speed buffs among us, here is a good page that details and graphs the raw speed of many web browsers.

For those who would rather I just tell you … here’s the five fastest (1 being best):

1. Opera
2. Konqueror
3. Firefox 1.5
4. IE 7
5. Safari

These are MY ranking. So don’t take them as technical holy doctrine.

Edit: Yes… Firefox 2 did NOT make the list. It definately lost some speed since 1.5. If you run linux, the SwiftFox build of 2.0 might perform very well, however.

Sorry I haven’t been blogging much.

Some news just won’t wait though. Windows XP and Vista users can now run Apple’s Safari browser based of the Web Kit project! Absolutely awesome. You really should give this baby a try .

ALMOST makes me want to stay in Windows .

Dear Bill,

What is this thing that thou hast done to me?

I was having a pretty good day. I even finished my workout.

Enjoying the satisfaction of my victory, I put up my music player to listen to some music while browsing the net and casually chatting with friends.

Life was good…

And then this!

Why did you wait until now to unleash the all new “White screen of death” upon me today?

Who am I kidding. I love you Bill. You remind me the world is bigger than I am… and you, larger still. You are my daily dose of reality.

For goodness sake people, get a Mac! (Case and point)

Windows PCs 5x More Expensive to Own than a Mac

I’ve been saying this myself for a long time, but I didn’t utilize any hard evidence to back my theory.

… well here it is.
