 I have been having some serious problems with my browsers lately. I have always been a big FireFox fan, but then I switched to the new safari and loved it. When I started having some issues with safari, I downloaded the new FireFox beta and gave that a try. No matter where I go or what I do, browsing just isn't the same anymore.
I honestly don't like the new FireFox yet. And this is not a case of just not giving it a fair chance because I did. First there are barely any compatible extensions which is understandable considering it is in beta still. But what about the default skin!? It is so bubbly. Why does everything need to be beveled and dropshadowed: OVERKILL.
Before it sounds like I just don't like the new FireFox because it is ugly, here is the main reason. It is slow and laggggy. Maybe this isnt the case with the PC version, but I have read articles comparing it to Safari and I must say, not a chance. Now I am not clocking them or setting up super sophisticated software to compare but the user experience is definitely not working.
 So since I don't like the new firefox I have been using Safari. For the most part, safari is fast and I love it. I miss the extensions that firefox offers, but after a while without them you forget they ever existed. Am I the only one having serious problems with Safari and cookies!? It seems to have something to do with logging in and user accounts. Sometimes when I have had Facebook open for too long, when I come back and click something it tells me to log back in. So I try to log back in and I get rejected. Then I need to go into Safari Preferences, delete my Facebook cookies and come back again. I log in again and get a different error "Cookies not enabled". Then when I login the third time it lets me back. Whata painnn! In short I have been having similar problems with my Google Account.
I hope these browser guys get things back to normal. I miss the days when I didn't have to worry about the most important program on my computer acting up. Maybe I'll just have to switch back to Internet Explorer =) |

AAPL seems like it is dying to break into the 180 range. Yesterday afternoon it made a run for it just before the fed cut IRs and then tanked. Today it hit $179.50 and then retreated until the last 10 minutes of the day when it made a crazy run for it! I posted on twitter 
Under Armour announced their earnings last night and they were not to impressive. Plus they lowered guidance for the rest of the year. For this quarter, they beat on revenues but were down on net income "due to increased marketing expenses". I think it is so funny that they blame their earnings miss on marketing, one of the few aspects of business that the company has complete and absolute control over. This made me chuckle so I mentioned it to 
So the newest web 2.0 company to take over my life is twitter. Basically twitter is just a text messaging platform in hyperdrive. The simplicity and openness of it makes it super attractive to developers and we are seeing lots of fun apps. Some cool apps which I have been using are:
