(no subject)
Completely unrelated to my novel...
Thanks to some good advice from a friend, I finally have Firefox again. And somehow, even though I uninstalled and reinstalled, it remembered all my bookmarks.
Let me explain:
I have an old computer - five years old, to be exact. I also have dial-up service because I'm poor. So, a certain amount of slowness on the internet is expected.
That said, when Firefox stopped working, and I had to use Internet Explorer... well, let's just say that everything began taking twice as long. No, make that five times. And while I was downloading Firefox (which took about 15 minutes), Explorer couldn't even take me to my homepage. 15 minutes, and that little e is just circling on me. It didn't even leave the download page.
Still, I was worried. I thought, "What if it's my computer?" But no. I have Firefox again, and yep - everything's about five times faster. Plus, I decided *finally* to try out the tab feature. Why did I never do that before? It's amazing! I just have to get used to remembering how to use them.
Anyway, so you should all use Firefox. Much better. And it's free, so there's no excuse for not at least trying it.
So I'm happy!
