Webpage rendering has always fascinated me. These videos depicts how Gecko (the rendering engine Firefox uses) renders the Mozilla homepage, and a Wikipedia entry, respectively, from start to finish. It’s mildly informative as to the processes that go on, but it’s mostly beautiful to watch.
I want to download Firefox 3 in support of their Download Day, which aims to break a world record for number of downloads in one day. I really do. I want to show my support for the Open Source community. I want to be using the newest and smartest browser out there. I want to do my part to further the flame that is Mozilla’s Firefox. I really honestly do. But all of their webservers are down due to the ridiculous amounts of bandwidth usage. That’s what you get for asking everyone in the world to jump at the same time, you knock the planet off it’s axis.
What The Duck is a webcomic about freelancing ducks. Think of it as XKCD… But with clients. Ok it’s not really anything like XKCD, but the flavor of the humor is similar. This particular comic made me laugh out loud, mostly because I spent several hours working in Photoshop tonight. It’s not hilarious, it’s just plain funny.
Homestarrunner and his nemesis Strong Bad will be getting a new dimension this June, when the crew’s latest venture, Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People is launched for the Nintendo Wii’s new mini game platform, WiiWare.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Flickr, and I love LOLCats too. But this is just ridiculous.
