I really like using Firefox. I urge everyone to at least try to use FireFox as your browser.

I found out another useful feature of this superb program. If you put a keyword in your respective bookmarks, you only have to type your keywords in the address bar to open the page.

ex:
I only have to type tonyo in the address bar, hit enter and voila, it leads me the to hunther’s blog. That easy!

Really impressed.

One power-feature of Firefox is the tab-browsing. If you have tons of webpages opened, there will still only one Firefox window in your taskbar. You can browse thru the tabs using CTRL+TAB to go to the next tab of CTRL+SHIFT+TAB to go to the previous tab. Pretty slick if you ask me.

I can also auto-reload a specific tab. Especially useful for message board where the pages are dynamic. (You have to download an extension for this though)

I can open a group of bookmarks all at once:

And still there are other features that you’ll see.

What are you waiting for? Come on, try it. It’s free!
Get Firefox







Hottest Summer

Apparently yesterday was the hottest day in Philippine history. The temp was 37ºC. It was freakin’ hot for sure outside -though I didn’t really feel it as I was inside the office almost the whole day.

The moment I stepped out of the building, sweat began to drop from all over my body/face/neck. Parang oven toaster sa init nung lumabas ako. And this was already 5:30 pm. The stench of the people mixed with carbon monoxide of smokers and smoke belchers literally splashed through me. Instantaneous yung paglanghap ko ng sariwang(?) hangin at pagpawis ko.

Am I glad that I was inside the office much of the day even though I feel like a prisoner here. Haha

Jie,

Would you be coming here tomorrow so I can return your thumb drive? I will be meeting Pen so might as well show up na rin.
