Well, if this blog is good for nothing else it is at least a good place for me to RANT!

I couldn't even log into my OWN blog with IE until I cleared my cookies and history. #$%^&%$# Internet Explorer is a pain in the butt!

I did download IE7 this morning and must say, I like the look of it a lot better than the old look. I already have Firefox set up with the extensions I like though and I'm not into configuring IE to match. Plus, I'm still scared of all the holes in IE - too much bad press I guess.

Two of my favorite Firefox extensions are Smiley Xtra and RiteOfTongue.

With Smiley Xtra you can insert smilies from an online database into forum posts, blogs and more! I post to several forums and I have a lot of fun with it.

RiteOfTongue allows you to right-click on typed text to check your spelling. It comes in very handy for those puzzling moments when a word just "doesn't look right" but you're not sure if you spelled it correctly. Gotta love it!

The above two graphics are some pretty big "smilies", I guess I got carried away!
