Firefox 1.5 & worthy extensions
Posted on December 6, 2005, by admin, under Blog, Web.
It should be no surprise by now that Firefox has reached version 1.5 and it’s available for download.
Among the updates there should be some speed improvements plus minor bug and security fixes. My only gripe is my favourite skin which lost compatibility, i’m talking about PlasticFox Crystal SVG. *sniff* *sniff*
Anyway, you shouldn’t miss the update and too make things better i’ve found out two great extensions to make your online life easier.
del.icio.us - Firefox Extension and BackPack - Firefox Extension
I love BackPack, it helps me keep my stuff organized, it really is very usefull and this extension is the cherry on top of the cake. Del.ici.ous is fantastic because I don’t have to carry my favourites from work to home and forth.
So happy browsing and please quit IE while you can, you’ll thank me later. :)

Atari game artwork
Posted on November 25, 2005, by admin, under Blog, Games.
I was browsing the web a few days ago and while looking at some websites about the history of video-games (i’ll post them up soon), I had the surge to look up information on Atari.
I never owned or seen an Atari before (shame), my first console was the first version of the Gameboy (the huge one with black and white screen), and next came the SNES or Super Nintendo, those were some good times.
So, while browsing through some memorobilia I stumbled into some old Atari catalogs and I was stunned because it looked so unique and original, each game artwork seemed to perfectly capture the game universe and atmosfere (like Casino or Defender for example).
I wish some of today’s games would look back at these examples and took more pride into making games, I think maybe we would have more original or better quality games.
You can visit Atari game artwork or Atari game Catalogs.

Xbox 360 buggy?
Posted on November 23, 2005, by admin, under Blog, Games.
Xbox-Scene posted an article reporting that severall people who just acquired the newly released Xbox 360 have been experiencing crashes while playing Project Gotham Racing 3.
Another blow for Microsoft’s machine, let’s see how the public relations team will come up with an excuse for this.
You can read the full article (with pretty “black screen of death” pictures and video) at Xbox-Scene.
