I assume most of you Firefox users out there have already made the move to Firefox 3.5. You may also have noticed that Google Gears isn’t compatible yet, which is slightly annoying if you’re running a WordPress powered blog like me (as everything takes a little longer to complete).

However, I’ve just discovered an unofficial add-on that solves the issue. Head on to Techie Buzz to read the full story, or visit the authors download page (Linux, Windows) directly to grab the code.

Finally, please keep in mind that this add-on is both unofficial and in beta. It works for me but in there it might be dragons

Any comments or updated info please don’t hesitate to share!

Arranged or not – not something you see everyday. Quite entertaining in my opinion

If you like Stacks on MAC but also run on Windows then Chris’n'Soft StandaloneStack 2 might be just what you were looking for.

Just run standalonestack2.exe to create and customize your stack! When you have created your stack, you can open option with it, just hold CTRL key when you run it.

Let me know what you think of it! I always like to try things that make Windows (XP) look less boring

Firefox 3.5 beta 4 is out and among the news is support for various open-source video formats. The following video shows just a few examples of what to expect.

Basically the video acts like a normal web page controlled by JavaScripts and according to TechCrunch this might be the beginning of the end for Flash movies.

You can always get the latest beta here if you want to give it a go. Developers will find answers and info here.

Now I’m just waiting for the final release – what’s your thoughts about the new “no-plugin needed” thingy? Will it open a new world of security holes or will it be for the better?

Just a quick post to announce that WordPress 2.8, codenamed “Baker”, is available. A brief introduction is found below:

The latest release fixes 790 bugs and all parts should be faster and smoother (as always).

More release info is found here, and further insight for the curious here.

I’ll try to get it all done today – and with any luck the site will still be up and running. If you’ve already updated please let me know if you’ve encountered any strange happenings!

Update

Things look like they are working after upgrading – some bugs on the Dashboard but after refreshing it should go away (I hope).

If you encounter the following error under your “Incoming links”; Fatal error: Call to a member function get_link() on a non-object – please let me know and I’ll dive into it as it could be a bug…

Update 2

Bug fixed – well not really a bug to be honest, but problem solved at least…
