Simple problem – since I’m now regularly using both IE and Firefox – how do I keep my bookmarks the same? It’s infuriating to bookmark a page in one browser and then not have it available in the next. (Hopefully Firefox will at some point be able to use Windows folders as bookmark folders and then the whole problem wouldn’t exist…)
The solution? Use SyncMarks. It’s still in beta and the most useful features are not available yet, but it’ll do for now. It can do lots of other clever synchronisation things that I’m not interested in, but what’s useful to me is that the extension automatically copies your Firefox bookmarks to your Favourites folder, so at least they are now half-in-sync! (Merged Bookmarks is on the way, fingers crossed…)
Talking of Firefox, I’ve just been very geeky and done lots of tweaking to get it almost looking and feeling exactly like IE.
Woo! I finished America (The Book) today. Truly the funniest thing I have read in a long time, and would a perfect Christmas present to anyone with a vaguely political sense of humour. Why has this not been released in the UK yet? Oh, who cares, import it for only £14.85 (including shipping) from Amazon.co.uk. Yeah, it’s in hardback, with beautiful glossy pages. So go on, order it now. I’ll wait.
Jon Stewart is a genius. If you want to see him at work on American TV, just look at all of these hilarious video clips from his show.

Most obviously the new banner, of course. Have you ever noticed, Nic updates his site and a few weeks later I mysteriously get round to changing mine?
In other news, I’m now on study leave for mock GCSE exams. But the cliché about sitting in a gym is over, our class gets the luxury of a nice room upstairs, with carpets and everything. They’ve given this to our class for almost every exam for years now, perhaps we’re just ‘better’ in some way than the other classes? Yeah, that must be it.

[Dominic is at school, this item was pre-recorded.] [If Dominic is not at school, he must have got expelled or something. That’s where he’s supposed to be. If you know different, please contact Brent Truancy Police right now.]OMG OMG OMG… well it’s not that amazing really, but check out the teaser trailer on the BBC site (yeah, we all noticed the new logo in the top-left hand corner. Clever you, what, just a few months after you re-branded?)
In other news – Windows Messenger 5.1 released, MSN Messenger 7 BETA officially publicly available, and MSN Spaces arrives. Cause I’m really likely to want to blog with MSN :rolleyes:
I’m too tired to give links tonight, you find ’em yourself!
