After the Yellowstone Fires (2)

Stuck In Customs (7) permalink
I’ve probably been to Yellowstone almost 10 times in the last 10 years. After the mega fires, some areas have been quick to rebound while others have not. This is one of the burned black trunks that remains, defiant. One thing that was news to me, that I found out recently from a ranger, was that certain pinecones only spread their seeds once they burn and explode.

While the next iteration of the ubiquitous Microsoft desktop operating system, Windows 7, isn't a dramatic overhaul of its predecessor Windows Vista, it does fix several sore spots and add a few welcome features. Rumor has it that Windows 7 will drop in the middle of next year, but last month Microsoft released a "preview" tester build of Windows 7.

Six Experimental Firefox Extensions We Love (132)

We prefer highlighting extensions once they've been approved by Mozilla—both so we know they've been vetted and so we can save you the effort of registering with Mozilla to install something—so we generally pass them by.

Tidbits about the new “superbar” taskbar (17)

Unfortunately because the pre-beta build did not contain the new taskbar, it’s been hard to answer those questions.
