ONAT LOPERA

Gmail “stars” are now on Google search results. Sweet.

iPad » The big-ass iPod Touch. Magical? No. Revolutionary? ehh.. no. Will I buy it (even if I have some change), no. It’s not even widescreen. No this and can’t do that; the list goes on. But it’s pretty, that I can give.

If you haven’t then it’s time to update! Mozilla Firefox 3.6. No noticeable speed change here (as far as I could tell), and if you don’t mind 5 of your extensions rendered worthless, then it shouldn’t be a problem. Heck! extension updates will come anyway.

It seems that Google and China (yes, the country) is on limbo. Censorship is so 1984ish. It’s a great read.

Gmail on HTTPS » I have this setting on since it was available and kudos to Gmail for making it as default. Gmail on secure HTTP FTW!

I just noticed it now, VLC celebrates the holidays by putting a Santa hat on their very popular orange traffic cone icon.But I don’t remember allowing it to phone home. Kebs. It’s still cool.

Ladies and gents, the Google phone is Nexus One. If only it has a QWERTY keyboard, then it would be perfect.

Bookmarks sync on Chrome Beta now available. Just a few extensions away to shift to Chrome and ditch Firefox entirely.

CNN.com just rolled out their new redesign and it looks better. Less cluttered, unlike the information orgy it was before. And it’s red. Got to love red.

Windows 7 officially released! Though there’s that XP mode, I need to check all my programs if it would run on it smoothly before doing a clean install.
