I love how the 1&1 login page depicts my Chrome browser as "older browser version". Ironically my Chrome version is the Dev channel. Can't get much newer than that 🙂 chrome browser,1&1 — Continue reading »
Network Solutions Domain Renewals
📆 December 13, 2009
I don't know if Network Solutions (netsol) is anymore the biggest domain registrar on the Internet. That title may now belong to GoDaddy. But one thing is for certain, Network Solutions seems desperate. Ok, just saw this on domain registrars and now it's clear. The other day I called Network Solutions after having trouble taking — Continue reading »
Cloud Computing Pitfalls
📆 December 8, 2009
From a development standpoint, cloud computing is a flexible and elastic computing environment. Sort of a server with unbound resources capable of running infinite programs for infinite users, with infinite processing power, memory, storage, and bandwidth. Cloud computing is a dream for people like me who are developers at heart but spent much of their — Continue reading »
Chrome Wishes

It's perhaps one of most basic debugging tools that has been a part of every browser since the beginning. The Chrome browser by Google is no exception and it also has the "View Source" — Continue reading »
Pandora Starts Charging
📆 July 7, 2009
In case you don't know who or what Pandora is, it's a music Web site that learns about your taste as you tag or rate the songs it plays, so after a while it ends up playing mostly what you like. Pandora's algorithm is decent but far from perfect and sometimes it tries to please — Continue reading »
Google or Bing
📆 June 8, 2009
Microsoft is nothing if not persistent. Last week the company unveiled the latest incarnation of its search engine called Bing. I don't know, but this is probably the 5th iteration of the company's attempt to force itself onto the psyche of the net searchers. You've got to give Microsoft credit for trying. Squeezed by the — Continue reading »
