I read somewhere that the Eee PC has been hacked to run OSX.
It's not like she blew me off. She just left with another guy, that's all.

BTW, I am two days now running Firefox 3, Beta 4.
Seems solid.
I'm not too thrilled with no choice on the theme without downloading one.
And of course, the breaking of addons and extensions until they are upgraded.
...but overall it's shiny.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Have you noticed a speed increase?

yeah, in some sites it seems smoother to load pages that were clunkier.
Also the download boxes come up crisper. They were lingering in the latest v2.
I've added the link to the betas to my previous post.

Any DocBook users in here? I'm trying to figure out what the difference is between keyword and subject elements for metadata. DocBook documentation is not very specific:
Keyword: One of a set of keywords describing the content of a document.
Subject: One of a group of terms describing the subject matter of a document.
Is there really any difference between the content and subject matter of a document??

Maybe keywords are individual words and subject can be compound things, i.e. a keyword is "slash" or "writing", while a subject is "fan fiction"

Also, keywords could be user entered, using any words to describe the content. (Like tags or keywords from Dublin core metadata.) while subject could be from a controlled set of descriptors, like standardized subject headings.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
There is a subtle difference between "keyword" and "subject", but I'm not sure how to articulate it.
maybe:
{ set of Subjects } ⊆ { set of Keywords }
A document might typically have one subject, but several keywords.

but then how is it a "set of subjects"

I'm thinking maybe we could break it down like this:
- Keyword: Controlled vocabs with role attributes like "infotype," "version," "os," "audience," etc.
- Subject: Free text, no roles, descriptive of subject matter.
Thoughts?
