Garret’s got his camera ready for the solar eclipse tonight. Europe doesn’t get a look in this time unfortunately, but there’s some good pics over at the Astronomy Picture of the Day for June 8th and June 10th. Make sure you check the archive, there’s some lovely pictures available.

One of the great defects in Linux compared to Windows is that it is not infected by cool viruses. hehe.

Hey Garret, just noticed this in my referers. I’m still depressed being at home! Especially after looking over all the photographs taken while there. Off to Thailand in August with Martina hopefully, not sure how we’ll afford it though!

about:mozilla still works in Gecko based browsers! (tested in Galeon so I presume it’ll work in Mozilla.) Unfortunately it doesn’t give you the nice fire breathing dragon as a loading icon.

Aikan examines how Mozilla interprets the blogsnob advert. He used Holy Shmoly as one of his examples, thanks!

Mozilla 1.0 is out! Now’s the time for everyone else to upgrade! I’ll upgrade just as soon as Galeon is updated to support the new release.

Ireland drew 1-1 with Germany! I saw a few minutes of it and from what I could see, the German players should take flying skills they’re so good at diving…

Half time report from The Irish Examiner. Do I really have to spell out which half time this is about?

From the SC2500 mailing list, here’s a positive review of the SC2500 DVD Player. I have to admit I haven’t used my player as much as I’d like to, but I haven’t come across many problems with it. The review above also has instructions on updating the firmware if you do have any problems.
