fake things said.
fake thoughts.

logic. brain.
imagination. manipulation. and fantasy.
are utilities.
are used to lie.

lies.
gotta get u outta my mind.
gotta use my brain right.

outright lies.
kills me outright.
liar liar liar. fuckn liar.
show me the path out of this house of lies.
show me the path to my self.

cleaning

December 10th, 2005 → 2 Comments

just cleaned the friendster from unknown friends, well, that’s something new, a friend but unknown, they never had that in the past, they do now in friendster.

you know, unknown friends, like pretty gals who *accidently* added me to their friendlist (because i *accidently* sent them friend request, how stupid i am). i think they’re making mistake, so i clear that up for them, huehue.

Flock 0.5pre Developer Preview

December 1st, 2005 → No Comments

pagi ini sekitar jam 5 tadi, gue lagi download flashgot (an extension for Mozilla Firefox), gue ngebaca tulisan

“FlashGot is a free Mozilla/Firefox/Flock/Thunderbird extension”

hue? what’s Flock? gue lalu ngeklik linknya and it led to http://www.flock.com where i found out that Flock is a new browser (in development), free and open source.

This Flock thing uses engine based on Mozilla engine. I downloaded it and try, it was quite a download, while Firefox 1.5 is only 5,102KB , Flock goes 8,287KB (it took some times to download it using my connection, since the download speed in average was only 1.85 KBps, it took 1 hour 14 minutes and 38 seconds). I installed it and tried, and it’s pretty much Firefoxy, I think they took the code from Firefox 1.5, since it has the same problem, a bloated memory usage.

Despite the thing, it has quite a pretty interface, using blue as the button color and chrome silver as the base background color, and it’s focused on social-features (i mean the final version, since current version is for Developer Preview only, but we’re welcomed to try).

“We believe that it should be easy for everyone to contribute to and participate on the web. To that end, we’ve started with integrating tools that make it easier to blog, publish your photos and share and discover things that are interesting to you.”

One thing i found funny, when i clicked the link Flock in the Bookmark Toolbar Folder, the page load so slow, while the other pages loads fast, but then i figured the reason why when i tried to load it in Firefox, it was because heavy load in their server i think, since it loaded slow in Firefox too.

It’s sure is fast, a lot faster than in IE and Firefox 1.0.7, few pages i found slowly loaded in Firefox 1.0.7, like Friendster and few others loaded faster in Flock. I actually like it, I hope in the final 1.0 version, they have changed it to have much more distinctive feature and look to Firefox.
