No! I don’t want Google Chrome! I’m already sick of checking my design in IE6, IE7, FF2 and FF3, I don’t want to check it in Chrome!

Plus, this step is another evil step made by Google in order to maintain monopoly on the internet. By using this browser, the user is encouraged to utilize their services, like Docs, Gmail or Reader.

I’m starting to get sick of Google and their $ 0.01 AdSense clicks (guys, check programs like AdBrite, i’m telling you: they pay a lot better) and I HOPE that Microsoft will eventually purchase Yahoo! so as to give Google a big kick in the ass.

Yesterday I have activated their 24h Mobile Internet service. I received the settings automatically. Until now I haven’t been able to access ANY website, even Vodafone live! with their shitty internet service.

I tried a lot of settings, combinations of IPs and ports and none of them worked. I am 100% sure that Vodafone live! is activated. (Because I can read it on *147# and in MyVodafone)

Now what: I paid Euro 0.70 for 24h internet access, because I was a fool and didn’t bought a Prepaid Orange number, where I could simply pay Euro 3.50 for a full month with unlimited access. (and their service really WORKS!)

I think from now on I’m gonna stick with Orange, they respect their clients, unlike Vodafone RO, whose main purpose is to gain money from offering … nothing.

I see that Wordpress is trying to annoy me with their version releases. I upgraded to the latest version 3 weeks ago and now… again? No way I’m gonna upgrade again.

Instead, I will create a custom blog script and I’ll import all posts from this blog to the other one. But this will take some time, so you shouldn’t expect any changes right away!

Why am I doing this? Because I’m tired of using somebody else’s script, especially when they require to upgrade to the latest version “because my site could get hacked and spammed and other bad bad things might happen”. I prefer to use my own script, to know how to modify it, how to use it and so on. And plus, it’s mine, so it’s the best!!

Some voices would say: “but man, wordpress has a lot of features and designs and plugins!”

True, but you don’t use all the plugins and themes available, right? You use just a few. Well, those “few” can be coded by myself. And so the theme, I prefer to be original. And to be honest, I hate the template which I currently have on this blog.

Hello,

I am glad to announce you that iWebDir.net has been improved and right now it has reached version 1.2.5 Beta!

Currently it has about 700 webpages indexed in Google and a PageRank value of 3.

I am now working at the comments module, which will soon be opened. Every user will be able to manage the posted comments for his website, from the “Manage websites” section.

In the near future, iWebDir.net will sort listings by the number of votes every website has. A piece of code will be given to every webmaster which he/she should place it on his/her website. Also, the number of votes and the number of visitors which iWebDir.net has sent to a specific website will be shown in the details page. We are still wondering if we should use onclick event or a more complex javascript to count the listings. (Don’t worry, I won’t be converting direct to indirect links)

In the meantine, create an account and submit your website!

A lot of people will be very happy reading this:

Grand Theft Auto 4 will be arriving on PC this November! On November 18th the game will be available in North America and on November 21st will arrive in Europe.

As I expected, Rockstar will include extra features in the PC version, like the expanded multiplayer. (as they say)

The PC version comes 7 months later after the launching on XBOX360 and PS3, where the game has been sold in 6 million copies, obtaining 500 million dollars in just a week.

I’m so happy to hear that, and I hope it won’t require a super-computer to play it.
