Simple Answer - no. For a while, at work we’ve been having a little bit of fun with one of the IT dudes with the old blue screen of death joke. “Arrrrgh my computers died… HELP!” etc etc. Thing is though, its never dead, we just think its funny to watch IT look at what is essentially a desktop wallpaper until they get mad and walk off, usually to hilarious consequences, see article a.

So, what happens when you get a genuine problem on your machine?

The answer isn’t surprising at all, suffice to say that computer still gets this error.

Outcome:-  DON’T F*** with IT.

Well, not shelves exactly, but its arrived. Mozilla have tested the new firefox with everything they can throw at it and it’s been moved out of beta testing and its now available to download to everyone. They’re pretty conifident its gonna be the most downloaded thing on the interweb that they’ve got the guiness world record people in to get involved with firefox download day! pretty smart advertising ploy!

So what’s new?

More Secure - They’ve spent a lot of time, and probably effort, into increasing they’re already pretty secure browser, so there’s much less chance of being attacked!
One click bookmarking - Great if you bookmark A LOT, easy to tag and organise your bookmarks.
Smart Location Bar - a tool that works with your browser history to help you get to the right site quicker, sounds pretty basic, but its quite clever really, it can use content as well as addresses to work out where to go
Its a shed load faster - self explanitory but definatley worth a mention.

There’s much more but my fingers are starting to get tired.

One thing remains to be said though, if you use firefox a lot, for work and what not, its probably best to hold off on the downloads until all the add-ons have been updated, otherwise you might be in a tad of bother!

So t’iphone came out. finally. Personally, i don’t think they advertised it very well, i only saw the advert 3 billion times, not a scratch on bloody xmas adverts!!

Does it cut the mustard though? Can you make a call? yes. Can you send a text? yes. I’m sold. all the other fancy stuff you can do with it is just added extras (all be it really really cool extras) just like the phone i have now, and that was free!

270 quid and the worlds crappiest contract since tmobile was born, but would i still get one? damn straight!!
