  • Firefox is growing up

    At least, that is what I see from my web site statistics. Today, I checked and I can see that Internet Explorer is only 65% of last month’s visits. 23% of the visits come from one or another version of FireFox. By the way, Safari from Apple is still around 2%, while Opera does 3%.

    ThePirateBay: some more

    The latest news in the battle between the entertainment industry and the (previously) world’s largest BitTorrent tracker site.

  • AOL chokes on millions of email messages

    Yesterday, AOL fell because of a “software bug” that prohibited any email to be sent or received by the millions of subscribers to the giant ISP.
