Make Firefox Faster

Today is Firefox day. Reading my friend’s blog, I realized this tweak for Firefox to make it faster reading webpages.

It seems that this news is little bit old, but I will make it notice here because I think it’s really interesting. And in any way, I would like to help Firefox and it’s team by explaining all its pros.

You can read the instruccionts about what you need to change in your Firefox configuration here.

Firefox Bookmarks Synchronizer

I’m using Mozilla Firefox since 3 or 4 months ago. Since that moment, I’ve been looking for an extension that let me share my bookmarks between my desktop and laptop. After looking a lot of time for it, I found the solution.

The solution is “Bookmarks Synchronizer” by Torisugari. This extension allows you to upload an XML file with your firefox bookmarks to an FTP and then, just download, merge and upload them from any Firefox with this extension installed. Just perfect for what I was looking for.

From the moment I start using it, I have all my bookmarks available from any computer, and at the same time, it is a backup of my bookmarks if my computer crashes.

The South-East Asia Earthquake and Tsunami

As all of you know yet, there was a Tsunami in the Indic Ocean just two days ago. One of the worst human catastrophe in the last hundred years.

For the moment, there are more that 23.700 people died, more than 10.500 injured and more than 80.000 missing, and it is suposed that this number will increase in the next days due to epidemics.

Just to let people know more about it and all its concequences, there is a new Blog just dedicated to it.

Please, take a look to it and if you can, just help them (the victims) with medicines or some money.

You can find the blog right here.

Apple Patents iPod Acceleration Detector

According to this article posted yesterday on CNET, Apple has applied for a patent on technology which would allow an iPod (or other device) to detect when it is falling and shut down the hard drive, minimizing the potential damage to drive and data due to impact. How soon this technology will find its way into the iPod, assuming it ever does, is unknown. Considering that IBM has deployed similar technology in its ThinkPads, I wouldn’t be surprised if it appears within the next generation or two.
