Flock it

Filed under: Computing — Zoomdog @ 12:38 am

Have been playing with Flock And have to admit I like it .. Fast and has some Sweet addins like the Feature to Blog as you browse .

 having used IE and Dropped it .. Firefox is begining to get too friendly with system resources and also use opera but just never compared to Firefox .. Flock Beta may just be a competitor in the making .

So thumbs up to the peeps behind it ..it is definately a Worth Checking out from me ..

Free Software Foundation

Filed under: Computing — Zoomdog @ 7:40 pm

I am a fan of Free software, and all you have to do is look at my machine

From firefox as my browser avast as my antivirus open office and a myriad of other tools from a variety of sites

I have used a large selection of OEM software and generally resort back to freeware as my longterm solution

to quote the Free Software Foundation

Free software is a matter of liberty not price. You should think of “free” as in “free speech”.

The Free Software Foundation (FSF), established in 1985, is dedicated to promoting computer users’ rights to use, study, copy, modify, and redistribute computer programs.

I sourced this link from this Xaprb’s blog link for the article is here “Firefox or opera on slow hardware”
