Hey! Nothing

So I installed a trackback module for The HHH, so that the blog capabilites can be closer to a real blog.

Yeah, so anyways, I finally wrote a new post and I figured I try out the trackback feature.

That's all.

Checking in with Songbird.

Songbird is basically what would happen if iTunes and Firefox got together and made some sweet love'n. However Songbird isn't some sort of bastard offspring, it's had it's gene's manipulated to remove walled garden of iTunes and any trace of Steve Job's freakish control over your media. ....I recently downloaded version 0.4 and I have to say that it is far more stable than iTunes ever has been in windows. That really isn't saying too much considering the windows version of iTunes is basically the programmatic equivalent of an aborted fetus of an alcoholic crackhead mother.

I hate IE, it's a piece of crap. I especially hate it when my beloved Adobe AIR applications like Twhirl and Pownce open URL's into Internet Explorer Even though Firefox is my default. This only happens in Windows Vista and not Windows XP.

Well, there is a simple fix, It turns out that you have to be more explicit when telling Vista what your default browser is. I found the answer way down this page in Adobe's KB.

  1. Go to Start
  2. Default Programs
  3. Set Program Access and Computer Defaults
  4. Expand Custom, then select the default browser (for example, Mozilla Firefox)
  5. Click Ok
  6. Never use IE again!
