Buses, Fire Foxes, and Thunderbirds

I couple of interesting sites were nice additions to my study breaks.

As I said before, I want to be a bus driver. Apparently, there is a site for that. DriveaBus .ca Cool.

Then there is Mozilla Fire Fox. Exactly what is it? An internet browser gaining quite some market share lately. For one month ending yesterday, it had 10 Million downloads. What's the best part of it? A lot less likely to be attacked by hackers and viruses, since it not the overly popular market leader. It's simple, easy to use and have nice features like tabbed browsing (also in Netscape), popup blocker (also in IE) and ad blocker (extension to FireFox). It's also suppose to be more secure when using SSL connection. I am using it right now. So far, no major problems, except the need to download another Java Runtime from Sun.

Mozilla also has a Thunderbird, an email client, may be I will check it out next time.

Alright, back to study.
