Woe to the fucking wicked.

xjournal's working for me, even if the format is a bit odd to my experience.

Does anyone know a good way to find one's posts to communities, without digging through all of whatever? Or is that one of those things that ought to exist, but doesn't, really?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I just ran LJArchive without any problems, but I could hardly be said to be a power LJ user.

Give me a reason I should download Firefox or Camino even though I am perfectly happy with safari except for the fact that my employer's paystub website can't deal and maybe can't deal with anything but the latest IE but I'm not sure?

OK, so I should probably see if the damned site renders in something.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Give me a reason I should download Firefox

Adblock Plus. (But do see if the site renders in something first.)

At home, stupid ads aren't such an issue (I've a limited internet range) but god, if I could get that at work??? Between slower-than-dsl internet due to our traffic and my antiquated browser, I HATES ADS.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Bwah!

So I let DH's blog get all clogged with spam for a while and Google identified it as an attack site. Now that all the spam is gone, how long will it take for Google to re-index it and take the warning off?

(Or should I just jump through all the Google Webmaster hoops and request a review directly?)

[eta: Oh, that was easy.]

Coding and Sleeping

Adblock Plus. (But do see if the site renders in something first.)

Flashblock is another good reason. Those two extensions are my essentials.

I could talk about what I like about firefox all day and night. I have a whole lot of extensions that help me with firefox.

one of my favorites is foxmarks - where I can sync my bookmarks across multiple computers. That just rocks the house.

I also love ubiquity - which lets you do all kinds of things across various websites through keystrokes.
