Review | Firefox addon: AutoPager

Haven’t scouted for new FF addons since forever but am truly happy to have found this one. Works great on Google and YouTube (plus many more handy sites), which in itself will save me tons of clicks in the future:) And trust me, I’m not doing it justice with words, you really have to try it on Google images and just glide effortlesly through literally(!) hundreds of results in mere seconds!…

There’s also tweaks galore to customize it any which way you desire, but apart from setting the add-on to auto-detect I let them be – and it works great. When you don’t want to use it, the conveniently placed button in the status bar lets you turn it off/on with a no-fuss single click. Sweet!

This should give you a rough idea of how it works (notice the little green box notice in the bottom left corner-it lets you know when the next page is loading)

How to replace Google Notebook

Here’s an interesting page with different solutions to the issue. It’s a wiki, so it hopefully should be as unbiased as can be, and easily edited by anyone, so feel free to share;)

Myself, I’m a Diigo person, I can’t imagine using the net without it, and even thou similar tools like Evernote have some kick-ass functions that Diigo hasn’t, I commend it for its fuss-free simplicity and effectiveness. A must have, in my book:)

George Denis Patrick Carlin ( May 12, 1937 – June 22, 2008 )

-

The following is compiled from different people who could put in writing what I felt on that sad Monday morning much better that I could:

The world is just a little less intelligent this morning. The biggest spokesperson for common sense, the person who taught me the real value of truth, far beyond what my parents taught me, has passed away.
Mr. Carlin was the screaming voice telling me to question authority, informing me that everyone is full of shit and to not trust anyone, cause we can’t even trust ourselves.Thank you George, for all these years of making me think and laugh at the same time.
I guess all that I can say now is, “Adios, Motherfucker.”

Your death was untimely, and would still be untimely even if you would live to be 142, on life-support, in a vegetative state and with a limp dick. I never even realized it up until now, but you were one of the few living heroes I had. And now you’re gone. You’re still my hero, tho! Fuck Joe Pesci, I’m praying to George Carlin!!

…will try and skip Sundays;)

WEEKLY TRIBUTE
I had unexpected problems with Firefox this wednesday, and all my “junk” bookmarks from my last email up to wednesday sadly vanished into thin virtual air…but at the moment I couldn’t care less!

It’s not often I post stuff on junk that I’ll be pursuing in my life (read – my career interests), because frankly, nobody can really sum it up:P…not even me!
Well, today I discovered that I can actually describe myself with one word…I’m a technogaianist. Aaaah, that felt good:)

A huge tribute to sustainable living…this article has so many profound thoughts and quotes I’ll honeslty do it injustice if I urge you to read it:
