A Little theme update

Notice it or not, Southanuk has had some tweaks applied to it.

 

Most notable is in the comments section where the comment form has been completely restyled and properly supports Facebook Connect in Internet Explorer 8.

 

Little tweaks to the site may appear every now and again, if you like, do tell, if you don’t… do tell!

Firefox 3.5

Just released is the all new, all sexy, Firefox 3.5.

 

You don't use VHS...then why Internet Explorer?  Upgrade to Firefox 3.5!

 

New features include:

Performance.

Firefox 3.5 includes the powerful new TraceMonkey JavaScript engine, which delivers unprecedented performance with today’s complex Web applications.

Open Video and Audio.

Firefox 3.5 delivers the first native integration of audio and video directly into the browser. Now everyone can easily watch open format Ogg Theora videos.

Privacy Controls.

Firefox 3.5 includes features designed to protect your privacy online and provide greater control over your personal data.

Location Aware Browsing.

Location Aware Browsing saves you time by allowing websites to ask you where you are located.

So far in my tests its a huge improvement on the last iteration (3.0.11) much speedier and handles the web better. I am really impressed with the native video player based on the HTML 5 specifications.

Evenin’ all…

(This post was typed ages ago, but I had to fix the flash and resubmit it – term is over now and I have a ball to look forward to tonight -admin note: ooooh fancy).

Yeah, this posting system works in IE8, but only with the compatibility mode on. I hope this beta is a long way from finished, as it struggles with image transparency on my blog. And no, it’s not that it doesn’t do Â it – scrolling around and clicking seems to start and stop it from doing transparency. This leads to a sidebar with bits sticking out. 🙁

Anyway, Joe seems to be very busy at uni (playing openBVE, probably) Â at the moment, doesn’t he? Somehow I am more busy, and yet I’m Â randomly typing this post, while putting up with a headache, slight dizzyness and thoughts about what I’m going to have for dinner (luckily, I have already done my work for tomorrow).

Anyway, I’m not entirely sure how the flash insertion system here works (which reminds me that I need to put instructions on my blog, for the admins), so I’m going to try to share a video with you.

There’s no one as Irish as Barack O’Bama
