If by ‘Browser Wars’ you think only of Netscape versus Internet Explorer before… think again<\/a>. Of course these days it’s more of IE versus FireFox<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Unless of course… Google is cooking up something<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking of Google… by now I presume you’ve heard of Google Desktop<\/a>. Sriram Krishnan<\/a> posted a review of this new search tool<\/a> from Google.<\/p>\n

Quite obviously… we don’t need an overhaul of the file system to come up with something nifty and useful as this, eh?<\/p>\n

You want more Google Desktop reviews?<\/p>\n

Here’s more<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Let’s just hope Google will overcome its perpetual love for a beta state. (Google News<\/a> is in Beta, GMail<\/a> is in Beta… and now the Google Desktop Search is also in Beta).<\/p>\n

The Daily WTF<\/a>: ‘Curious Perversions in Information Technology’.<\/p>\n

Windows XP Home and Professional Service Pack 2<\/font> Services 411<\/a> (via Rubik’s Redemption<\/a>). I was about to complain about the black background when I saw the White or Black option.<\/p>\n

One more thing… MSNBC<\/a> now offers RSS Feeds<\/a>.<\/p>\n

OK…. back to the FoxIDE and out of the cyberspace, WildFire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
