I have this background in my laptop for sometime now, but I never
tried the url that was printed on the image. Today I tried it and I
found out the background image I was using wasn’t the only great
image they had.

I just found out this cool aggregator site. It’s kind of hard to
explain what it does because it seems to do almost everything you
can think of. Here is the site’s own explanation:
fyuze works by cooperating with other sites on the
internet to collect and distribute news headlines and other data.
this assures that the content is reliable and up to date. this
system also allows sites to provide fyuze users with dynamically
generated information customized specifically for them. for
example, an auction site could use either buying history or user
defined preferences to alert potential shoppers of products they
would be interested in buying. this is more than just highly
targeted advertising though; it’s a way for the user to avoid
having to dig through auction listings each day in search of a
particular item. fyuze acts as a personal shopper, notifying the
user of purchases they might be interested in.
fyuze isn’t only beneficial to the web-surfer though;
fyuze allows the auction house to make sure that a user doesn’t
miss the chance to bid on an item they wanted to buy. this is just
one example of how fyuze can be used to enhance an e-commerce site
and increase the websurfer’s online experience. a web-based mail
service could use fyuze to let users know if they have new mail. a
news site could use fyuze to deliver the latest headlines. fyuze
can be used to deliver the local weather, movie listings, stocks,
sports scores and just about anything else on the web. the
possibilities are limited only by the imagination. fyuze is the
ultimate portal, collecting and organizing the information each
user wants from all over the web.
Try it and you will find it’s much more than this.

I finally took some time to browse the
href="http://www.xulplanet.com/tutorials/xultu/">XUL tutorial
and I was thinking how much better XUL is when comparing with the
current Java way of doing GUIs. Then something crossed my mind: ‘I
bet someone is porting this to Java’. My friend
href="http://www.google.com/">Google showed me it was true. Is
jXUL the answer to GUI Java programmers?

I really am tired of explaining to people why Mozilla is better
than IE. It just is. If you don’t believe me just take a look at
this list. And make sure that you read the list untill the end
because the first few reasons (tabbed browsing, popup banning, …)
may not convince you but I’m sure reason #101 will:
