Walt Mossberg has been playing with Google's "Chrome" browser for a week longer than you have. What does he think? Chrome's not as good as IE8 but way better than Apple's crappy Safari. And neither Chrome nor IE8 can hold a candle to the awesome Firefox 3. (Did Walt actually say that? Of course not. He has relationships to protect. But that's the impression we got after reading his review): Chrome is a smart, innovative ...

There have been persistent - and reasonably credible - rumors that Google was going to release its own browser. Now, thanks to Google Blogoscoped, we have some additional evidence: a 38-page comic book sent out by Google to announce the Google Chrome project. The comic runs through a bunch of interesting features: process-isolated tabs, a new Javascript engine tuned for large, complex applications (like, oh, GMail), UI innovations, an “Omnibox” that resembles Firefox’s “Awesome bar”, ...

Photo by Toronja Azul First, the second part of that title isn’t true. You either forgot who loves you, or need to find more people who do. But there may be times where you feel alone and depressed — just about everyone has spells like that, or is strong enough to admit it. It’s not easy to talk about, but loneliness, feeling unwanted, and even self-hate from time to time is extremely common. If your ...

Just when we thought the damn things were dead and buried, I ran across another Flash intro screen the other day. And like practically every other one I've seen, it was half useless puffery about the organization behind the site, and half lookit-this-kewl-effect self-indulgence by the designer. But they can't all be bad... can they? Has anybody seen a Flash intro that doesn't have you scanning the screen desperately for the "skip intro" link?

*nods* flash intro's - not a good idea (at least not ones that play automatically on your main page - wait for people to ask for it to be played if you do need one)

As I was making the move to Microsoft and the Expression Web team, a number of people asked what drew me to Expression Web. A notion that I believe in with software is that over time, software quality decreases if you are not paying ample attention to it – software entropy. I think this is something that everyone who has been on a software project over time knows. With things like DI, Unit Testing and ...

Anti-Globalism points out an analysis of India's CAPTCHA-solving industry posted at ZDNet. It begins: "No CAPTCHA can survive a human that's receiving financial incentives for solving it, and with an army of low-waged human CAPTCHA solvers officially in the business of data processing while earning a mere $2 for solving a thousand CAPTCHAs, I'm already starting to see evidence of consolidation between India's major CAPTCHA solving companies. The consolidation, logically leading to increased bargaining power, ...

Crank 2: High Voltage is one of those ratshit insane movies that makes me proud to be alive. "High voltage is an understatement," he said about the movie. "They locked themselves in a room for three days with five bottles of tequila and wrote the most offensive, outrageous script I've ever read."
