By Extension, Chrome Battles Firefox - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
"Mozilla and Google share a common enemy: Microsoft. They also share a lot of money (Google invests millions of dollars in Mozilla and is responsible for most of its revenue). And it would seem that ideologically they share the same belief that the web is the platform of the future. All of this has blunted a lot of the talk that Google’s Chrome browser was competing with Mozilla’s Firefox browser. But with the launch of extensions for Chrome it’s pretty hard to deny it at this point." - Keith Rowland from Bookmarklet

Dell Employees Post Chrome OS for Mini10V - http://en.community.dell.com/blogs...
"Last week, Google released ChromiumOS to the open source community at http://www.chromium.org/chromiu....  ChromiumOS is a small, optimized OS whose purpose is to make it extremely simple and easy to browse the web.  Without a network connection, ChromiumOS is not very interesting. With a network connection, ChromiumOS shines.  The Chromium browser is extremely fast and makes for a great web-centric browsing experience.  Boot time appears quick too - about 12 seconds from hitting the power button." - Keith Rowland from Bookmarklet

FriendFeed reports I have made 22,222 comments all time. If you had such symmetry, would you pause for a bit, or go nuts and aim for 23,456?
Tries to coax Louis into responding to break that symmetry - Jesse Stay
Go for it, Louis! - Anne Bouey
50,000 - Johnny Worthington from iPhone
Aim for 123,321 or 123,456 or 222,222, etc. MORE symmetry, please. :-) - Lisa L. Seifert
Ignore it. It's just a number - Paola Bonomo
Next stop 33,333 - Keith Rowland
Go nuts - I agree with Keith - go for it - do the stretch goal! - Alternating Reality Books
I'd delete my account. - Jim Hearts FF
See what Louis doesn't realize is the second he makes a comment via Disqus or any other service that pipes in auto-comments... his plan will be for naught....................... mwuah... mwuaaaahh... mwwuuuuuuuuuaaaahhhhhhhh *lighting crashes* - Johnny Worthington
Before making this comment, I was at 11,333. It was only because I stopped to read this post that I noticed it. Now the moment has passed. Such is the transience of numerical synchronicity. - Slippy "WildBeard" Lane
No cure for this .... yet - Charlie Anzman
Actually, 22,222 isn't symmetrical at all - a) it has a comma in it throwing it off balance, and b) even if the comma were gone, you'd have to somehow split the middle 2 in half, and 2 is not a symmetrical number, so you're okay continuing to comment. - Jesse Stay
Go big or go home! - vicster
I think I agree with Jesse -- that's not symetrical. Get to 111,111 and then call me ;) - Jorge Escobar
LOL - Thomas Power
onward and upward my friend! - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
Aim for 22,223 - Josh Haley
go silent suddenly and watch the crowds , go nuts - johnpiercy
Take it one comment at a time. - Todd Hoff
Odd. I'm still at 11,333. - Slippy "WildBeard" Lane
I want the high score, the global high score, I want the high score ...... - Martha
I'd keep on commenting! Just screen shot it for your memory :) I had a similar, freakish Twitter encounter for a month, it seemed like every other day I was looking at 666! - H0llywoodWh0re
Go for 100,000 Louis, you can do it! :) - Garin Kilpatrick
