    FireFox 3.5 has just been released and yes it’s pretty damn fast! I’ve been using it since the Release Candidate 3. The only reason I did not get on the Beta Train was the lack of support for my favourite add-ons and extensions. As a web developer and WEB2.0 Junkie, my needs are a little…

    My eye is OK. Of course I knew that already. But the optometrist was fitting me with some new daily lenses and because I have a astigmatism in my left eye my lens have to be weighted in a specific direction. So you’ll notice some little dots on the horizontal plain and and big OK…

    The proof is in the pudding… The middle image was rendered by Firefox 3 on Windows XP and it looks all washed out. To the left is the original RAW processed to JPG in CS3 Bridge and the right most picture is in Safari for Windows. Which actually looks the most like the original… The…

    OK I’ll admit to being more than a little angry with the way that Bell through up our ExpressVu (now it’s simply Bell TV ) Dish on the chimney. But comments left both on this blog and in the Flickr feed have been rather supportive and tend to agree with me on the fact they…

    I missed the Habs game last night, as I was up on the roof for three hours trying to strap down the dish that got blown out of place in the strong winds of Wednesday night. I don’t think I would have been nearly anywhere near as I mad had I not seen this: The…

(All puns intended)I bought this flash Puffer last week after receiving many recommendations from friends on Flickr and as well as help from the Staff of my local photo store.
