Fire.fm + DownloadHelper = Musical Awesomeness!

Yet another reason as to why Firefox rules, by using the above combination of Firefox Add-ons, I now have the power of Internet radio music along with the incredible power of downloading all the songs instantly. Just select an artist/genre/song title and it gives you some great music.
The best part is that it uses "Related Artists" and gives you such songs that you may have missed out on or never even heard before and if you like it, with 2 clicks you can make it yours.
Also, if they give you a song you don't like, just switch to the next one. Try it out once and see it for yourselves.

Another interesting extension is "Read it Later" - an awesome spin to the usual Bookmarks feature every browser has. It's less cluttering than a Bookmark and easier to use.

P.S. : I discovered all this at 4am, on the morning of my IS exam ;)

Cool Iris

Cool Iris

The Best freaking Firefox Add-on till date! It provides a 3-d view of all images on any webpage. Check it out:
Here's what happened when I used Cool Iris on my blog -


Here's another sample - with the search term being "Waterfalls" [something which even a retard could guess from the photo, so I dont know why I even mentioned it]



Here is a sample of what it can do when applied with better search terms on Google Images like "Victoria's Secrets" ;)


Let thy imagination take control!

Browser Devtaa Ki Jai Ho!

Carrying on with my latest tradition of Hinglish / Englindi post titles, here is another post for the IE junta [Intellectually Elite].

Firefox 3 is finally here, and frankly it's just as great as you'd expect! IE8 [Internet Explorer] better be careful, in the past 3 years I may have used IE just about 8 times. Can't imagine life without tabbed browsing and FLV downloads!

BTW i just read this awesome wikipedia page about Bruce Lee and then saw this video YouTube - One inch punch by Bruce Lee
Pretty Impressive!
Besides that, I was busy getting bored reading some crap that I should know but dont know even though I am in final year of engineering. For example, what is the output of the following:

printf("%d");

Now, wait a minute; why in the name of Yashvant Kanetkar would anyone type just "printf("%d");" unless of course he was a retard or he wanted to show off how well he has mugged up Test Your C Skills!
Now you know what kind of crap I am reading ;)

Then ofcourse in between I have my usual duels on Tribal Wars with neighboring villages. Phone call frequency has generally increased, especially with fellow Airtel users calling up regularly.

Now for the title of the post, the fact is that most of the things I do on the comp nowadays is online; so i thought I'd praise the Browser Gods a little; especially with the latest version of Firefox out, I think it is an auspicious occasion to say
