Release notes for Flock 1.1 Beta
I have Flock 1.1 Beta installed and it did not automatically import profile from previous version.

Just to clarify: this is a beta and will not use your profile from previous versions of Flock. This is in order to protect your data from potential bugs in this beta. The general release of Flock 1.1 WILL use your profile info from previous versions.

Here we go again. Apple Online Store is closed for product updates.
As of this writing, only U.S.A. Apple Online Store is closed.
Is this the moment that I have been waiting for?
Will the information from my imaginary source be coming true?
I want my MacBook Pro!
OK, let’s wait for a bit.
The mysterious voice in my head says that Apple is releasing a brand new HD-DVD player. NOT REALLY.

Pixelmator 1.1.2 Release Notes
I launched Pixelmator today, and it notified me that there’s an update available. I told it to download the update, and it did. After it finished downloading, it prompted me to update and relaunch the apps. So I did. For some reasons, the update failed and rendered the apps unusable. I downloaded the latest version off Pixelmator web-site and replace the apps in my Applications folder. I noticed earlier that the release notes said that Pixelmator 1.1.2 is dated January 22, 2008. Interesting since I previously I downloaded Pixelmator sometimes in February. Anyway, the release notes can be found here: http://www.pixelmator.com/support/updates/
Firefox 3 Beta 3
I hate being sick, and I don’t want to spread the cold to other people. I have pretty much sequestered myself at home and do everything through the internet and the phone. I’m lucky enough to have FiOS available in my area and it has been great. The upload speed is much better than any services I ever had at home.
Anyway, I forgot to mention that Firefox 3 Beta 3 is officially out on Tuesday February 12th, 2008. Find out more about Firefox 3 Beta 3, and meet the robot!
Mozilla Firefox 3 Beta 3 is available for multiple Operating Systems including Linux, Mac and Windows.
