Something Odd!

Saudi Arabia 0, Ireland 3! Woo! Atmosphere in the pub was magic!

This is an experiment. I’ll post results in a few days.

Anyway, I work at TradeSignals where we help people trade futures by providing them with interactive charting and static charts. Our users can even list their favourite futures symbols and have them refresh every minute so they can keep an eye on progress through out the day. Users even get Streaming Quotes & Charts which has been very popular.
Anyway, getting into futures is very expensive, it’s cut-throat and the wins and losses are phenomenal. You have to watch the markets closely, even the 10 minute-delayed data provided by MyQuotes can be too late to avoid you losing thousands of dollars, either on the bullish or bearish sides of a deal. That’s where Explorer comes into play. Tracking futures commodities via that application is childs-play, sort of. You have buy and sell signals on an interactive Java chart, a serperate messaging window beeps and warns of trades and it’s become invaluable to a number of our customers.

Experiment over .. back to normal service!

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…
