Seriously. Would you people stop liking/commenting on this? It keeps popping up to the top of my stream and I have to stare at it again.

I have seen this a million times on myspace for years... we all have I'm sure. it is just great to comment here because then we can snag new people that are stupid enough to comment. ....you were the one who posted it Akiva.

There's some reiteration of the shape of the internal part of the spiral in the outer portions...I guess...the whole thing is sort of shaped liked it's constituent parts. It's fractal-ish.

My tabby (who looks a lot like that cat, actually) has done similar. When she was very pregnant (meaning, she popped the litter a week later), she caught a full grown bird and brought it in the house.
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Whoa! That's wild. I have two cats - a 6 year old brother and sister dynamic duo we adopted 3 years ago. Their greatest joy in life is when "a fly" accidentally enters the house. The female cat (Miss Bootsie the Prancing Jewel) makes it her life mission to catch the intruder. They are too funny to watch in action...but nothing like catching a "bat." Way cool!
- Richard Trader
That is One Awesome Cat! We've had bats in the house a few times. Ours just sits there and follows with her head - like a tennis match.

hahah i love this!! that cat is amazing

Awesome. Love the fresh. Helvetica is too plain.
- Scott Magdalein
OMG I love this .... YAY!!! I hate the grey background. I don't do greasemonkey or mac. Easy Peasy!
- BEX
Helvetica for me for the simple white look, that ghastly grey was distressing
- Sally Church
I went straight for Helvetica, too. :-)
- Chris Baskind
Same here. Might have to fire up Stylish to get rid of the horizontal line at the top of the post column, but otherwise pretty slick.
- Ken Sheppardson
Lovely start, so glad it's "i want to see it like this" rather than "i want mine to look like this to others" :-D I'm currently Helvetica (nice & clean, though i miss the logo left of the search box) with tendings towards trying Fresh too

During the entire duration of this video, I kept thinking " Leo, please keep your eyes on the road and do not get impaled by a car." It would be neat of Alex Lindsay could concoct a special "Terratrike" camera rig to facilitate hands free video capture. Though, it would end up costing well over double the price of the bike itself.
- Steven (optionshiftk)
I love and respect Michael's music and am kind of happy for him that his unhappiness in this life is over. With Stevie no conflicts just a happy guy.
- Mark Forman
Are you saying Stevie Wonder has no conflicts? He's blind, he almost died in a wreck once, I think, he's had various romantic troubles. Nothing nearly as freakish as what MJ went through, but still, far from conflict-free. Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, though.
- Kamilah Gill
No I mean the freakish type and blindness is a physical challenge to me not a conflict.Not downplaying Stevie's character in dealing with stuff or judging Michael-respect and <3 both of them.
- Mark Forman
Uche: it may down to usage; I had Things, Yojimbo and Mail running in the background and had just watched a TV programme in iTunes, so I wasn't exactly taxing it.
- Timothy Griffin
I got one last week. Oh boy, is it nice :)
- Ian Betteridge
It would be nice if it updated automatically like WebKit nightly.
- Eric Florenzano
Henry, you will want to. The current builds are Alpha and there are many things missing like flash support. There isn't enough there right now for it to be used full time.
- Mathew™ one of a kind
Yep, because most of the content on the web uses flash, so there is no point. That is why I am waiting.
- TheHenry
I still don't get what it gives me over Safari 4/Nightly Webkit. What does "sandboxed" give me?
- Jesse Stay
I've been living without Flash for quite some time now, guess it depends on what sites you visit. Not sure what process separation really gets you when you're running an unstable piece of software, but that's what Chrome has that no one else does.
- Victor Ganata
From what I understand Sandboxing makes the browser more secure. This http://blog.chromium.org/2008... explains how it works on the Windows platform and they're replicating the same model on OS X.
- JR Ignacio
Mathew, based on that, I get the feel that Safari is the better choice. Being around longer, even with sandboxing the length of time seems like Safari will be a bit more secure. Regarding speed, it seems like Safari still somewhat out-performs Chrome. I'm not sure what the big deal is about Chrome for Mac - Google hype?
- Jesse Stay
The other thing I don't see in that comparison are developer tools available. Webkit has amazing developer tools built in
- Jesse Stay
There is no big deal about Chrome for Mac yet really (other then it is coming). But, Chrome has been better then anything else in Windows. It is basically a wait and see game. But, to be honest there are things that a Chrome will most likely do (little things) that Firefox does that Safari doesn't that keeps me from using Safari and that in the end is what will make Chrome overall better then Safari for me. And the way Chrome handles process is a plus as well.
- Mathew™ one of a kind
I too like the way Chrome handle processes. Given that my Mac only has 2GB of RAM running Safari all day really kills my Mac's efficiency.
- Vinko
I generally liked the experience of Chrome on Windows which is why I'm looking forward to the Mac version. The other thing with Chrome is that when a tab/window hangs, it doesn't crash the whole browser. I haven't seen any other browser that can do that well on OS X.
- JR Ignacio
Yeah, for me Safari eats as much RAM as Firefox. And that is with 5+ tabs open in Firefox and all those plugins and a couple tabs in Safari and no plugins.
- Mathew™ one of a kind
Mathew is that with Safari 4? Nightly Webkit build?
- Jesse Stay
So why are you all still using Mac if you don't need Safari? You know Chrome works on Linux too.
- Jesse Stay
I'm not a developer and all the apps I need are Mac/Win only. :)
- Mona Nomura
Um...because OS X is a far better OS then any other that I have used. I never choose OS X because of Safari. I chose it because it is faster, more stable and the programs I use run better in OS X.
- Mathew™ one of a kind
There are a couple of things that I like about Mac. Safari isn't one of them. Both Apple and Microsoft should stop developing browsers. The community can develop them. Open source and cross platform.
- Rutger Blom
from email
Rutger I don't get what people don't like about Safari. It's the fastest browser out there right now, has terrific developer options, great interface, and most of all, it's webkit.
- Jesse Stay
Chrome is webkit, too. And frankly, much faster than Safari 4 and nightly build.
- Mona Nomura
Mona, that's what I wanted to know. Thanks.
- Jesse Stay
Jesse: I do like Safari but I tend to agree that one does not buy a mac for Safari. You get Safari on windows too. Chrome on Mac feels fast but its also incomplete
- Kiran Patchigolla
Np, Jesse :) Anyone else having problems un-starring? Also, on a Windows machine I would not use Safari. Nor would I Hackintosh or dual boot.
- Mona Nomura
Speed isn't the most important thing about a browser for me. Here is one big reason why I don't like Safari. When I close a browser I want the tabs that I had open, open again when I reopen the browser. And a bonus reason. All the plugins that I have with Firefox. Plugins are also the same reason why I didn't use Chrome full time when I was Windows only.
- Mathew™ one of a kind
Mathew, what Rob said - I use a plugin for that.
- Jesse Stay
Chrome on the Mac feels faster than Safari 4 beta, but it's definitely not as stable, although it's crashing far less than it did. I heard Safari was going to move to separate processes, too, at some point.
- Victor Ganata
I tried out that plugin. But, it still wasn't worth me switching from Firefox to Safari.
- Mathew™ one of a kind
Still hasn't crashed. Victor - that's what nightly build is :)
- Mona Nomura
Jesse, no one's trying to convince you to give up Safari. This is a preliminary Alpha release, a first chance to play with Google's browser. If you don't want to do that, no one's forcing you to. We're all trying to LEARN what the differences are.
- Mistletoe Glen
Chromium has never crashed on me (I'm sure it will next time I use it though) it just doesn't have that Flash support I want.
- Mathew™ one of a kind
Glen, I'm not asking anyone to convince me. I simply wanted to know what the differences were, and why the hype, in regards to the Mac itself. (I understand why on Windows)
- Jesse Stay
Chris it took awhile, but you completely converted me to Safari from Firefox. It's going to take a lot to convince me to switch elsewhere. I'm excited to see if Chrome has the capability to do that, but yes, it seems too early to decide.
- Jesse Stay
I am all about speed - and Chrome gives me *just* that.
- Mona Nomura
The way I see it. If you don't care about Plugins then Safari is fantastic.
- Mathew™ one of a kind
I mean, it's a huge improvement. It's only crashing about once a day for me right now. It used to crash about once an hour.
- Victor Ganata
We like Chrome. Works fine for us. Better than Firefox 3 when it first came out. :-)
- Discount Bloggers
testing Chrome on OSX but this version is very incomplete (not really usable as main browser yet). love Chrome on XP and will be switching to Chrome on Mac when code is complete.
- timepilot
Should I switch to this vs? Firefox? Are their all the nice extensions?
- orionstarr
Joseph - Chrome is still in the early early phases (for Mac) with no extensions. Heck, we can't even set preferences. But it is BLAZING.
- Mona Nomura
from IM
Different strokes for different folks, it works better than the other browsers for me. Again, I am all about speed.
- Mona Nomura
I'm waiting for at least beta too--I have far too many Firefox plugins to give up.
- Kelly W.
I was running it for a little while, but I couldn't install the FF bookmarklet, and can't view videos yet, so I had to shut it down for now. But I'm glad the initial version is available, and I'm sure I'll use it from time to time.
- Cheryl Jones
Just heard a new browser coming out, "Rust"...
- orionstarr
Mac browser run down: FIREFOX + Features and customization - memory footprint SAFARI + fast, lightweight - lack of plug ins CHROME + blazin' fast - total lack of features, mediocre stability. I have all three browsers on my computer, but almost always use safari. It doesn't crash on me, get bogged down much, and its straightforward. I would use firefox if only it weren't such a resource sucking PIG. And Chrome would (will?) top them all once it becomes stable and extensible (?).
- Zach Landes
I tried on GNU/Linux and it didn't let me login to Google or Yahoo. Quick to load websites and works quickly enough, but I'd like to at least be able to check email with it! :/
- Rudolf Olah
Ryo, my link was correct. That is Google Chrome for Linux.Very early release, of course, but it is Google Chrome.
- Diego Barros
yes, it crashes when I load an attachment in gmail. Also it doesn't keep state of my selection ofthe drop down list . I am using it now.
- Dh'ennis Dömingö
Never satisfied with my browser, I switch constantly between Firefox, Safari, Fluid, often having at least 2 open at a time: FF for general work (because of extensions), a Fluid instance for Friendfeed, Gmail... or other sites I leave open on desktop always. Hoping Chrome can find a useful role in this mess.
- Brad Kligerman
Arguing which tool is best based solely on user preference is akin to arguing why a size 10 shoe is better than a size 11. It's user determined, so there's not going to be a "right" answer. What I don't see is what features Chrome for Mac offers that differentiate it from Safari nightlies. At their core, both browsers are built on the same "platform" - Webkit. To draw a different analogy... one is a Buick and one is a Chevy. Now... somebody tell me what feature(s) DIFFERENTIATE the two.
- Kevin Donahue
A Buick and a Chevy is like Opera and IE. Clunky, out of date, inefficient, and out of style. Chrome's JS rendering beats nightly hands-down. Multi-processing tabs ≠ platforms. :)
- Mona Nomura
from IM
So... without the car commentary (thanks, btw)... Chrome for Mac has better JS handling. I remember seeing that early in the month, w/ V8 clocking 9% faster than Nitro, but I didn't see that quantified in time. For example, if a page load is 4 seconds, how much faster is the Chrome JS... 0.38 seconds faster? How long does it take me to blink? 0.5 seconds? Regardless, I appreciate the point. The dev release handles JS faster than the nightlies. Are there any differences? Start up time, etc?

I'm sure many people think this about Facebook and AIM, but I consider Twitter to be seriously adding to the dumbing down of the world. I refuse to join in part because of the slaughter of language I've seen attributed to trying to post something that can't fit the required 15 letters or whatever.
