More Cowbell

I wrote a small articles about free alternatives to World of Warcraft over at my PC gaming blog. Check it out if your looking for a free MMORPG or just another game to play when your bored. There are hundreds of free PC games out there that can be downloaded when your looking for something new. Another article I wrote gives a list of some of them, free multiplayer games. I’m currently hooked on Urban Terror, but also pick up Archlord every now and then. Probably going to be dabbling in Crysis as soon as that beta is released.

I’ve blogged about IE7, it’s only fair that I blog about Firefox 2.0 also since it’s what I personally use to get around the web. Firefox is a web browser much like Internet Explorer with a few more features. It also has the capability to allow plugins (or addons) to be installed making your web browser customizable to your needs. You can download it at Mozilla.com. Here are some additional links to plugins that I use and like.

Tired of changing computers and not having your bookmarks, cookies, and history handy? Google’s Browser Sync addon can help with this. After you install it, you will log into you account. From that point on, your bookmarks, cookies, and history are saved, so that if you moved to another computer, it automatically downloads them to that one also. You can turn any one of these off so that they are not saved also, but if you move between computers at home and work, this addon can really save time.

Colorful Tabs changes the color of your tabs in Firefox to be more distinctive. It should allow you to quickly distinguish which tabs are which if you find yourself with a lot of tabs open all the time.

You can find a lot more addons to suit you at the Firefox Addons site.
