Ever since its first release candidate (Firefox RC 1), I have been a big fan of the new improvements in Firefox.
Some of the cool features that I fell in love with;
- Drag and drop reordering for opened tabs
- Non-obstructive error message (You can do that with firetune for pre-1.5 versions)
- Support for Web Standards including SVG (became evident to me with a pepper in my Mint), CSS 2 and CSS 3, and JavaScript 1.6
- Easier options for the security settings
- Force links that opens in New Window to open in a new Tab instead

I never realize the importance of ThanksGiving untill I experience one myself. I really wanted to write this article on my personal blog but then to push it home, I am having it here as I am targetting more of the technical peoples to extend my virtual Thanks.
I am somewhere in South Pasadena for over a week, living with a family, dinning everyday with them, family shopping for clothes, vegetables and everything else in between, watching movies, mixing both business dinners with family/friend getting-to-know meetings. Experiencing Sushi yet again. I wasn’t that comfortable eating it during my last visit in June this year but now I am beginning to like it. I was surprised when the chief chef at Yoshida recognized me with a Hello, Long Time; No See. Tasted the foods at a Thai Temple (I have forgotten where it was). They have something called “Green Card Lottery”; yes, you can get Green Card through Lottery. Well, they say America is more about foods, merry-making, enjoyment, nice cars, vacations and all the other good stuffs and I am beginning to believe that. The weather in this part of the state is really cool, extremely nice and is really soothing to a person coming from the humid warm weather of Mumbai, India.

I always believed that Google is more about non-flash and more of XMLHttpRequest. Brajeshwar.com is on Mediatemple, they have urchin for the site stats and I know that Urchin had nothing flashy about them. I use more of Mint to study the statistics but I am sure I will be more on Google Analytics for more details.
I signed …

It looks like the whole rage against Internet Explorer have started again with wilder fury. I just saw Boing Boing’s post about Kill Bill’s Browser. They have 13 hilarious Reasons to Swtich from Internet explorer to Firefox.

I never realized that people will be wacking the Penguin that much. But recently after installing Mint and checking out the Current Activity Pepper, I see that the most amount of time people spent on my site was on the penguins and not the articles.
