So now that Chrome 5 is “stable” and released on all platforms I revisited it to see if the ugly font issue in Linux had been resolved. It hasn’t. There is no use giving us a browser that is really fast if we can’t even look at it without making funny faces. Back to good old Iceweasel / Firefox for me.

da phone
So since I haven’t blogged a while and it is probably affecting my stock price on empireavenue.com I thought I might say something about my new phone. First, it really isn’t mine, as work is paying for it. Second, I should mention it is a Motorola Milestone, probably the best Android phone in Canada (from a national carrier) at the moment. If you search my tweets from last year you might even find how I though the ‘Droid’ looked ugly and now it is in my hand. I’m amazed how much I use this thing. I Facebook pretty much from the phone now and it is pretty handy when watching TV (although bad on the eyes). Gavin Vickery has one too so I have a Milestone buddy.
I also have to say I’m pretty impressed with Android. Being a Linux guy it was pretty much the only choice and its interface is impressive. Far from those Linux pda OS’s like the Zaurus which I had around 2002. Anyway gotta get back to work.
