Firefox

It looks like a slow week on the blog - must be a busy week in real life ...

I just added a plugin to my Firefox web browser ... I gave up on Explorer except for my Sirius listening, its terrible for media playing , but it has the coolest features ..

The plugin i just added is Ghostery. It tells me what website are Watching Me Back !! WOW , never really thought about it before ... I went into a Yahoo news story and 6 different items on the page were tracking me !! Kinda crazy when you think about it , but I always wondered where all the spy cookies came from when I sweep my computer ... Some other cool features -

1. The choice in backgrounds for your browser. I have a World Champion Red Sox web browser. My homepage button is homeplate. The arrow keys are homeplates facing out. They spliced out Manny and added Pedroia. Even better...

2. The 'morning coffee' button. I love this. It is the first button I hit in the morning - it opens up my 5 favorite websites - in different tabs (and all tabs are different colors!) - so they are they for me to click thru the stories and articles. It is a very simple but useful tool.

3. It allows me to Stumble - there is a button for StumbleUpon - if you haven't checked out this link on'The Moon' - i keeps you busy for hours. Register - added your interests , and it stumbles random pics,sites, or videos of your favorite interests !!

OK - say goodnight Gracie ...
