Fucking ramblings
So, now Google’s Chrome browser has extensions you can add on that will block ads from appearing (and you can block all Flash content, too). On the heels of Adobe bitching about Apple not supporting flash, you’d think we’d have heard something from them about this, but so far, not a peep…hmmm
The Grammy awards were last night. Apparently a bunch of crappy pop stuff was...
