Download Firefox 3 from Mozilla because it’s a faster, better, more stable web browser.
The site is busy at the moment because they’ve been pimping it a ton and are trying to get into the Guinness Book of World Records by becoming the most downloaded software in a 24 hour period. Last I tried though, the site was available and Firefox 3 ready for download.
Download Firefox 3 now.
A lot of people have downloaded it already. The Firefox 3 Download Counter shows 2,534,008 downloads as of 6:25 PM PDT.

I just discovered Animoto, a music video creator. You feed it your images and a song you want to use and it uses its magical math skills to fit the images to the beat.
It let’s you create 30-second videos for free. Longer videos with additional features cost either $3/video or $30/year.
For now, I’m sticking w/ the free video option. My first attempt at creating one is below using pictures from the recent trip Benjamin and Suzanne took to visit me.

I got fed up with Windows Vista on my desktop computer today. I nuked it. For the first time in years, I typed the fabulous DOS command into my computer:
format c:
Oh, C:\ was formatted alright. I installed Windows XP onto it. At this point, Windows XP is over six years old. During the Windows XP installation process it stated the following, “Your computer will be faster and more reliable.”
Irony wins the day.
Update 4/10/08 18:40 PDT: Having gotten used to Windows Vista over the past six months or so, I’m quite shocked at how much faster Windows XP is on my computer. I’ve got a Pentium 4 3.2ghz w/ 1.5gb/RAM. I don’t have any quantitative data except to say that all my apps load faster and respond faster than on Vista.
I’m also realizing the same slugishness in Ubuntu on my laptop. Granted, that’s due to running a webserver, mailserver, and a multitude of other applications for web development purposes. Next time I’m gonna get a fast machine. Hopefully next time I’ll have more money to put towards it.

I released MyTwitter 1.6 beta last night/this morning. A few minor tweaks that you can read about in the changelog. The main thing I did was ensure that it functions properly on the newly-released Wordpress 2.5. It does.
If you’re curious, Cal has a decent writeup about the Wordpress 2.5 release and things you should consider before upgrading.
