RR 13/03/08

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows have been officially confirmed to be split into two movies. Which I think is a pretty good idea considering how long the book was and I want this to be perrrrfect! But as always they are going to screw it up somehow. The first part comes out in Nov 2010 and the other in May 2011.

Today I discovered that surprisingly IE7 is more stable than Firefox current version. This is based on personal experience. Well what happened was Firefox didn’t work in the LAB, so I was cursing the cursed web connection at college when a friend of mine got online using IE7 ( Yes. Seems IE still has some fans..). Since I had no choice I used IE7 and to my surprise it didn’t crash on me once, unlike Firefox. Firefox is a great browser and all but it has a got a history of crashing on me while I’m browsing through multiple tabs, mostly because it doesn’t get along with Javascript and it has those memory leaking problems that its infamous for.

IE7 tabbed browsing was kind of refreshing as well. When you have multiple tabs open, and when you go back to the first tab you opened and open a new link as a tab window, the new window pops out next to the window I was using. Which is unlike Firefox, where every tab window opens last. I guess they would implement that in Firefox 3 which is in beta now. But Firefox trumps IE on add-ons, and AdBlock Plus is the best one yet! But it’s refreshing to know that IE is holding out on its own. I like me some competition.

Anyhoo till tomorrow cya. Hopefully we get a “Killer” episode of LOST [pun intended].

    Ha ha! Nice to see Microsoft’s humongous budget being put to use - imitating Apple, Google and the Mozilla community.

    IE7 had better be good, it’s 10 years too late in coming. But for me, the switch has been MADE! IT’s FIREFOX!

    As for the Harry Potter movies… I’ve been smart enough to avoid every single one of them! Would have completely ruined the book for me! The movie’s up there in my own head.. :p
