IBM switching to Firefox as default browser

Those of us who design web pages know this story well. Microsoft Internet Explorer (especially IE6) Should die a slow, painful death. Here’s evidence that is finally happening: IBM is telling its 400,000 employees to dump IE and use Firefox.

Saying it out loud: IBM is moving to Firefox as its default browser

Doing my part for Net Neutrality

Can you imagine what it would be like if AT&T, Comcast, Time Warner Cable, and Verizon controlled what you look at, publish, or purchase on the internet? As crazy as it sounds, those companies are actively lobbying policy makers to allow them to control content on the internet. In order to stop this madness from happening, those of us who use the internet, or publish to the internet should be spreading the word: Don’t let big media companies take control of content on the internet the way they do with your cable television. So, there you go. Now you know. Please spread the word.

GPS is getting an $8-billion upgrade

Bryan Comstock — Sun, 23 May 2010 17:18:29 +0000

Have you noticed how your location is becoming a big part of the Internet these days? For example when you post a video on Youtube it wants to know the location of the video. In Facebook, you can post your location as well as see the location of your friends. I keep track of some of my friends using Google maps on my Android-based phone. It’s mostly a novelty, but you can imagine the implications, both good and bad. It turns out the GPS satellite system is getting an upgrade that will increase the accuracy from its current 20 or so feet to an arm’s length. You can read more about it here: GPS is getting an $8-billion upgrade.

How well does your browser support HTML5?

Here’s a nifty website that grades your browser on various aspects of HTML 5. On my laptop running Windows 7, Chrome 4.1 scored 118/160. Firefox 3.6.2 came in second with 101/160. IE 8 scored a dismal 19/160. Check your browser and see how well it does.
