As some people may know Firefox is just the best browser on earth and right now they are trying to get a world record – the most downloads in one day so therefore please help set the record!
So far there have been 1,904,770 downloads and it runs until 6pm tomorrow (18/06/08).
On top of that Firefox 3 is just brilliant, adding extra features on top of the old versions and a faster speed apparently.
Download it here:

And for my next suggestion, I recommend ‘Synergy’, its brilliant – its able to connect two networked computers and have them both be controlled by the keyboard and mouse of one of them – the server. It even works across platforms – Windows, Mac and Linux.
Currently I have it on my desktop and laptop but it’s also recommended to have it in a home cinema setup so a laptop can control the media centre. It’s a bit hard to set up and threw back a few errors but eventually its working. You can get that here

Right, I’ve made the jump and installed Vista SP1 - and well…. it took ages! - I suppose I was warned, I didnt time it or anything but boy did it take longer than I thought it might, ah well, its installed now and just like I thought - I cant tell - yet.

I’m hoping that it’ll bring me advantages in transfer speeds, so I shall update on that in the future hopefully :)
