Firefox: Blazing a Trail

The Firefox web browser is indeed blazing a trail on the web. Unless you've been in a cave you've at least heard of it. I've had it running for a while now and can "highly" recommend it. I was immediately impressed by how much faster pages loaded when browsing.

This morning it was downloaded for the 50 millionth time.

All this without radio or television advertising.

50 million "word of mouth" customers from around the planet!

Are you kidding me?

I'd say the only marketing department with an easier job is the one at Nike [that's a golf joke, in case you're wondering].

more on samlab.com

Back with a progress report. Those of you who've been following along know that I've been busy tweaking samlab.com over the past few days. Full marks to the gang behind Drupal.

I think they've "hit it outta the park" in terms of the flexibility and ease of use. The fact that it's possible ot develop and post themes to change the "look and feel" of an interface, without having to mess with all the "data" (i.e. the "content of the CMS (...management system) that I've been getting online.

To make this story slightly longer, suffice it to say that my attention (such that it is ;-) will be turned to the continued development of samlab.com, so look there if you're interested in "the latest."
