Mozilla rethinks the behavior of new browser tabs {Download Squad}
Mar 6th 2009 2:39AM "When you open a new tab to start a search, there's a decent chance that you've highlighted and copied some text from another tab. So if you've already copied some text to your clipboard, you should be able to conduct a search in the new tab with a single click."
Google's solution is much more elegant (as usual). Highlight your text and right click ... the pop-up offers the option of "search Google for "highlighted text."

Google sets deadline for Chrome on Mac, Linux {Download Squad}
Jan 12th 2009 3:59PM Chrome is an interesting browser on the windows platform. There's the speed thing ... it's faster than FF. Then there's the copy and go, among other UI simplifications which "just make sense." I look forward to seeing it on the mac side, as I run a mixed environment. And it really doesn't matter whether or not it'd work on a PowerPC. These folks are the walking dead-they just don't know. It's the nature of computing ... relentlessly and ruthlessly moving forward.

Jack Valenti Dies; May Cause Strong Language, Adult Situations for his Family {This Just In}
Apr 27th 2007 3:10PM See ya. 38 years of non-representative censorship perpetuated by a small group of people who were NEVER elected or chosen by Americans and who were never held responsible or accountable for their secrecy-shrouded decisions.
It was and is unamerican and undemocratic.
