The Top 8 of ‘08
Happy New Year!
To celebrate, I’ve compiled my top eight blog post (according to hits, not my opinion) to remind myself how the year went.
- My Last Whine About Google Chrome: I really didn’t expect this to get number one–it’s just a little rant about all the fallacies Chrome should’ve fixed by now.
- Chrome, Chrome, Chrome: This is my first (and non-ranting) review of Chrome, where I point out the “Five Usability Fails.”
- An Open Letter to Hob–I mean, Microsoft: I’ve known for a while that I had problems with Microsoft–ergo my switch to Ubuntu. But once I saw what the other side had to offer, I realized how Windows could improve a lot through simple improvements, such as built-in workspaces.
- Word Procesors continued: OpenOffice.org Write vs. MS Word vs. Google Docs vs. Zoho Writer vs. Abiword: Yeah…this was one of my first posts, back when I didn’t know how to write or research. It’s just notes on my first impressions of a slew of word processors, and for whatever reason StumbleUpon really liked it.
- Schematic: Microsoft’s Problem: A pretty little picture that illustrates how Linux is gradually killing Microsoft. (And anything that includes three pictures of Tux in different outfits is sure to be a success
) - Themes for GMail: A Ecstatic “Darnit!”: Why I love, and hate, GMail themes.
- Another Open Letter to Microsoft: Number three let me vent my anger at an up-and-running Windows. This one let me vent my anger about the ridiculous installation process for Windows XP. Especially when compared to Ubuntu’s.
- Browser Startups: A little speed test between the IE7, Firefox 3 and Chrome…with kind of unexpected results.
Hope you have a totally awesome 2009!
