Miscellaneously…
Mozilla have had to rename their Firebird (previously Phoenix) browser again. It’s now called Firefox and version 0.8 will probably be every bit as good as the previous versions… I’ll let you know next time I’m on the WinXP laptop (here on the Mac, there’s no need for Firefox while I have access to the wonderful Safari with Camino as a back-up). Don’t waste any more time… trash your copy of Internet Explorer and get a proper web browser.
Thanks to the wonderful marketing power of moral indignation, I now really, really want to see Popetown. James Mawdsley and Clifford Longley should ask themselves what has done the most damage to the human race… satirical humour or the Catholic Church?
And speaking of Rupert Murdoch (as I was in the last entry)… the man might be a total git, but he’s not without a certain audacious style, as Ben Hammersley points out.
