IE

I don’t understand why Microsoft is still developing IE. IE6 was fail, and IE7 is still fail. So far IE8 is just starting to seem like a decent browser. The whole reason why IE has a large share of the browser market is because they ship it with every Windows OS, and most users are computer illiterate and only use it to check their emails.
Wouldn’t it be a lot easier to start off with Webkit or Chromium instead of trying to clean up a whole pile of code from previous versions?
My dream: When one day I can stop designing websites and make sure it runs like it’s supposed to on...

I’ve been working on a new pet project today, which involves Joomla. I’ve played around with Joomla about a two years ago (Joomla 1.0) and I found it really hard to use. One good thing with it is that in the administration panel you can get it to do just about anything. But that is also a bad thing. It’s too complex.
So now I’m working on Joomla 1.5. I decided whether I wanted to try out Drupal instead… but Joomla has cooler themes – and there’s nothing better than cool themes.

Judging from the topic, it seems the user has already gotten a iPod or two since he already has the cables etc.
He knows that a problem would be hiding it from his parents, so he was dim-witted enough to ask ‘how do I hide it from my parents’.
Honestly. Is this how we are heading as...
Okay… Testing testing Windows Live Writer (Beta)

Hm… just got linked to the new MSN Live (9) programs on Microsoft’s website. Whilst downloading the new MSN 9 Beta, I decided to install the Writer as well.
The description says:
Create great-looking blog posts, including photos, videos, maps, events, and tags, and publish them to almost any blog service—Windows Live, WordPress, Blogger, Live Journal, TypePad, and many more.
It does just that! After installing it asked for my site URL and login details, then it went ahead and automatically detected the blog type (in this case Wordpress) and downloaded the necessary files.
As...
