Development News... Strong progress has been made with TDD-612 REIGNFALL Chapter 7. A piece of the "end-game" is in place, with more to come presently - if I get even a bit of writing done this evening, that will be suit me just fine. I am needing to get additional work in, 'cause I was awake only ten minutes before my alarm this morning, so no early slot. Guess I might not be seeing one of those again after the clocks changed at the weekend...
Meanwhile - A Tech "Review"... ...or more properly, a bit of a bitching session. I'm running Firefox 4 at the moment, and yes, this shiny new version does seem to be an improvement on the previous model - but...
- what happened to the "reload" button (and why can't I add one?)?
- why no bottom of the screen status bar (and why can't I reinstate it)?
- and which smart-ass switched the order of "open in new window" and "open in new tab" on the right-click menu?
There's "improving" things, and there's "screwing things up for the sake of it". It's not all bad - I didn't mention the damned "tabs on top" or "tabs constantly showing", 'cause you can actually switch those off and return to a more comfortable layout...
*shrugs* Ah well, can't really complain - at least it's not completely broken! The speed improvement makes up for the essentially cosmetic negatives. Score: 8.5/10
