I’ve pretty much switched from Firefox to Opera now, though I’m not sure I’ll stick with it. It does a few things better than Firefox, but it renders some pages kind of funny. (Some of the stuff on the Blogger home page looks off, for instance.) It does seem to be generally faster than Firefox.

Opera 10-year online anniversary party
Opera is giving away free registration codes for their browser today. I’m not sure how long they’ll be doing this. Opera usually costs $39, I think.
Peet’s
Peet’s cycling jerseys support The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. (And they make good coffee too.)
PSP 2.0
The PSP 2.0 software update is officially available in the US now. I’ll probably install it at some point this weekend. I’m looking forward to playing around with the web browser a bit.
Jabber Stuff
This stuff might be what I’m looking for, to start messing around with Jabber / Google Talk.
Google Talk
Just for yuks, I downloaded Google Talk today. I’ve never been much into IM, but since this is from Google, maybe I’ll be able to do something interesting with it at some point. I’ve been kind of curious for a while about the possibility of using IM for various system notifications and stuff like that. Other IM clients I’ve played with haven’t had useful command-line versions (or APIs) that could be called from a script. I’m kind of curious to see what’ll happen with this one.

Flickr: Photos from andyhuey
My Flickr photos can now be found at http://www.flickr.com/photos/andyhuey/. I still don’t have much there, but the “andyhuey” address is much nicer than the old “15415177@N00” thing.
100 Things I Love About Comics
A nice list of 100 things this guy loves about comics. (I concur on 47 of them.)
Ed Foster’s Gripelog: AOL Cancellations
Horror stories about AOL cancellations. Nasty stuff. Best to just stay away from them.
