Cool beans

I've run across a few neat Mac apps recently that have changed my life. The first is Comictastic, a fabulous app that downloads comics straight from their respective home pages and into a Cocoa-wrapped GUI. It's sweet and only costs $15.

The second is Kung-Log, which both Beth and I use to update these blog entries. Very nice and as full-featured as I need. It's donation-ware.

I'm also waffling over Mozilla once again. I had switched to Safari a while back, but every once in a while I run across a web page which doesn't work, yet works in the almighty Mozilla. Today it was the Ars Technica forums. No matter how hard I tried, attempting to log in using Safari results in a big fat nothing. It turns out (after a search on the Ars forums) that you have to right-click on the login link and open it in a new tab or window. Even then, they say, there are minor issues with the forum and Safari. I'm wondering if I shouldn't just save myself some headache and stick with Mozilla until the next Safari release. Mozilla may not be as pretty, but it excels at web browsing and that's really all I ask.

BTW, new MacMAME release today - mainly just bugfixes.

Comments

The only thing I don't like about Kung-Log is that you can't edit comments. It's a posting ONLY app. Which is great if that's all you want to do. If it added account maintenance stuff...then it'd be da B0mB!!1!
