Google Chrome

So yeah, Google released their new Browser today. I feel bad for the little guys in the browser world now. I honestly find it hard to imagine Firefox, Thunderbird, or safari staying afloat once Google Chrome takes over. And of course, I just HAD to have the new goodies that came with Chrome :).

After the first few minutes of using Google Chrome, I decided that I liked the new browser. The browser face itself is pretty basic, which makes it very simple for most users to use, but what about people like me? I'm a freakin' code monkey and I want to play around with it! I want lots of fancy buttons that do things people don't understand! oh man, what will I do now??

Google Chrome does have some pretty neat features, but I don't really feel like re-typing my feelings about all of them. So I'll just say all-in-all, I feel that Google has made yet another quality utility for internet users. If you want my full idea's on Chrome as of now, check out my other blog: the Hack Hut.

How to make your USB port more usable

Most everyone has a USB thumb drive now a days. They're pretty cool little gadgets, I must say. I know that I always carry mine around at school, just in case I need a quick little program to be put on another persons computer... But really, when you think about it, what makes a USB drive so great? their certainly not that exciting to look at.

That's all about to change, however. Wowzzers has produced a new USB thumb drives that literally brought tears to my eyes when I saw it. Get rid of your boring old USB's, and pick up an amazing humping dog USB!

These strange little devices are a normal USB drive, but with the added bonus of having a plastic dog humping them. And honestly, what could be better at breaking the tension in your long, arduous work day than a dog humping your keyboard?

I have to say, I personally think these things are unbelievably ridiculous. Sure it's hilarious, but honestly - the fact that wowzzer can make money off of something as crude as this is amazing to me. What kind of a society do we live in where we find humping dogs entertainment??
