Speed is all

PDF Readers

I m thinking about a serious of "meaty" post for this weeked or at least the one decent one, but meanwhile I though I should post about the incredible diference in speed between Adobe Reader and Foxit. A friend of mine (one of the two suscribers to this blog) told me about foxit like a year ago, i went yeah yeah but then about two weeks ago i actually download it and it is really fast, i love it.

FF2 vs FF3
OMG i m so happy with FF3 I m still testing it in only one of my machines but so far much better performance and now that firebug is behaving, happy days. The Add ons I have are: Firebug with YSlow, Jiffy, Web Developer, and of course Google Toolbar. The best feature is no memory problems :D

Now tempted to install the Beta 2 of IE8....

Another Debugger for IE

We all know how painful it is to debug websites in ie, (particularly 6 what a terrible browser that.... i ll rant properly about it another day) today i stumbled across this little tool call DebugBar it was all great until I installed it in my machine and it doesn't work. (no contextual menus, no nothing)
However I ll have to give it a try in another machine as mine is a Vista Home Edition ( yuck yuck) I should be updating to ultimate pretty soon ( hopefully Saturday) when I know I m safeguarded by at least a virtual environment to work in.


All for now if anyone has comments/ opinions very welcome :D
