Finally, after holes and a lot of drilling we have the internet at our new space. Starting today, this is my second home and full time work space; being lenient on the meaning of full time. Pictures and more details to come soon.
I am doing a small test and have switched away from Firefox and moved to Flock. Mind you it is based on Firefox but apparently it has fixed a lot of the memory leaks. This could be temporary but we’ll see. It incorporates blogging, flickr, youtube, facebook very seemlessly, and works with a few of
