Firefox 1.0.4 omfg

HopeSeekr of xMule — Sat, 07 May 2005 04:41:47 +0100

I love 1.0.4, just thought you should know.

You can get it over at http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-aviary1.0.1/ I am personally using the 5 May 2005 build. It is *rock* solid.

They should go ahead and release it, imho.

Be sure to check out the Essential SEO Firefox extensions page of my new site too!

Beautiful Drupal Theme

I modified incendiary.ws' fieldelectric Drupal theme quite substantially tonight. Here is a screenshot:

Firefox Adoption Stats

Hi.

I maintain a large corporate website — over 22,000 pages — that receives many millions of hits a month from what can be considered a very typical assortment of viewers. Firefox usage has increased in 2005 from 1.3% in January to 2.7% in April. I also show graphs on how totally dependent Microsoft Search is upon the default homepages of corporate Internet Explorers.

Best Firefox Web Developer Extensions

HopeSeekr of xMule — Tue, 26 Apr 2005 17:09:00 +0100

I have spent a good amount of time collating all the best of the best Firefox extensions for website developers and Search Engine Optimizers, such as myself.

Best of all, you can install them *all* from my site, no need to "allow" 20 sites for 20 plugins. AND I'll be keeping tabs on all of them and updating them all locally. Yay :-)

Just go to this article's TrackBack URL.

Cheers,

PS HAHA! It took me another 30 minutes to figure out how to add TrackBack support to drupal :o

155.1 days, or 5 months, 5 days 2 hours 16 minutes

This may be my last personal blog entry here, if Praseodym [maintainer of this site] can hurry up and set up my new one over at http://www.incendiary.ws/ :-)

Since I am vacuous of meaningful content due to the early nature of the morning, I shall type out the lyrics to my now-current song, and bonafide Mantra of HopeSeekr's Life...

Candee Jay - Back For Me

Monday morning waking up; in an empty bed.
Thought I'd feel you next to me; but I'm alone instead.
Did I scare you, when I said I needed you?
Or was it just a one night stand, and nothing real to you?

I'm about to go read an *awesome* book. Actually it is the first spirtually-oriented book I believe I have read since Persa Zula and I split up in late 2003. It's called

Tomorrow's God: Our Greatest Spiritual Challenge

Every page is really deep. As I've grown accustomed to doing, whenever I find a treasure chest of enlightenment I always have a pen handy...and like The Holographic Universe this one is almost nothing but highlighting. :o Why do I do this? Not for myself. All of these books I give to others and hope to give to others yet again...People say they find my highlights and margin notes very helpful...as I talk to myself as much as to them when I write them.

155.94 days of Hope Remaining

155.94 days, or 5 months, 5 days 22 hours 37 minutes

Yes, this day started out just fine. Record number of sales in the office since I've been here; double-digit percentages more website traffic than year's most-coveted event (Rodeo), and there isn't even a major event. I feel I should ask for a raise but all they are doing is cursing and screaming and saying "Why is this other site so slow???" They also have perennial excuses as to why they have no orders one day (my fault) and many orders the next (they don't know what *they* did but it was good). In any event, due to both onrushing multi-year deadlines of momentous import *and* this incredibly stressful job, I swear I'm losing my hair at an ever-increasing rate :o

156.57 days of Hope — Blaire's Confirmation

HopeSeekr of xMule — Mon, 25 Apr 2005 01:55:51 +0100

156.57 days, or 5 months, 6 days 13 hours 40 minutes

Early this morning I was witness to my niece's confirmation into the Methodist Church. It was the first "real" church service I had attended since largely giving up my Mormon affiliation after their dogged support for the Iraq Domination and out-right endorsement of President Bush (How can "propets" of God support such a cabal?!)

It was the first church I had been in since I covertly attended the Jerry Farwell "Moral Majority" hatefest at a local baptist church, which drew crowds of several thousand to learn how to "convert your homosexual children!" AND THE TEXAS STATE PARLIMENT JUST DENIED HOMOSEXUALS THE RIGHT TO ADOPT BECAUSE THEY MIGHT "CONVERT" CHILDREN TO HOMOSEXUALITY!! GAJH!!!! Bigotted hypocrity in the name of G-d really gets me steamed! More on this in the future as it was quite fun and I almost got arrested again for supporting a good cause :-)

[very private...only re-publish if you are somehow affiliated with Persa]

Ever feel like you're more of a woman than a man?

Are the only people that hit on you gay or lesbian?

Welcome to my nightmare. I'm not for sure if it was the Southern Baptist brainwashing or unknown sexual abuse when I was younger, but I have some real sexual identity problems...

I don't even think about sex much...in fact I've only made out with 2 people ever lol. I've lost all interest in both sexes for little under a year and a 1/2 and it is possible that the woman who has incessently haunted my dreams for so long will even reject me in the future. All of my family + friends tell me it is hopeless, that humans are -- in fact -- not good enough to return kind act for kind act. And I tend to agree more and more after each passing year, after each passing betrayal.

Firefox and Roaming Profiles HOWTO

HopeSeekr of xMule — Tue, 19 Apr 2005 16:02:06 +0100

Roaming Profiles are where you take your user configuration and stick it on a remote server, so that no matter what computer on a LAN you use, your settings are exactly the same. And I've figured out how to do it with Firefox. Yes, that's right. You never have to be without your Web Developer and HTML Tidy extensions — much less your Pimpzilla Theme — ever again! Even when troubleshooting someone else's computer :o
