The reason I like adblock for Firefox is that it saves my laptop downloading and processing things it doesn't need.

Currently adblock for chrome just uses CSS tricks to hide the adverts, which can be easily circumvented by the authoer. Either way it just means more processing for my poor old laptop. Chrome might be faster and have a slight edge on saving my battery, but it doesn't make up for the horrors adverts (and particularly flash) do to a laptop battery.

Adblock Plus or for the more technically aware NoScript. I would never use a laptop without them, what should I waste my battery life to view your crappy made advert?

Sorry mike, I've only got invitation nominations and they're all quickly going out to my friends.

Was having a better play around with it today with a friend, same opinion as everyone else. Waves get too messy too quick without someone in charge. Really need to be able to add kind of rules. Also it gets SLOW if you keep doing loads of stuff with it.

Google were kind enough to send me an invite this weekend. Alas I don't know anyone else with a Wave account yet though. From what little I've played around with it, it does feel like it really needs easier to access app functionality as well. I'd also like some bots to automatically aggregate information off other sites for me as well.

Because it's a jetpack add-on, no re-start of Firefox needed to make this work. So far these add-ons are very simple and your better going with a normal extension, you know, if you want features. But these will be big for Firefox in say a year or 2.

Lee Mathews: But this is an attempt to try and measure the Internet as a while and identifying unique users isn't particularly doable. A person could be using different computers (work, home etc...), regularly clearing their cookies, on a dynamic IP etc...

Firefox has a 22.8% browser share of Internet usage, not Internet users. It could very well be that the average Firefox user spends more time on the internet than the average IE user.

I'm just hoping the auto-toggle bug (cower + others) is fixed. And Glyph of Mend Pet works again (took 4 days for GMs to confirm to me that 'the developers know about this problem and are working on a fix).

Other stuff sounds fantastic, but I'd rather be rid of such bugs.

That kind of defeats the point of a 'release candidate', as in this is good enough to release bar any major turning up. You can't call it an RC and have an RC2 planned, otherwise it's just a beta.

Microsoft really don't seem to get the concept of betas, RC and maturing development cycles.

Thanks for the mathematical lesson from someone who doesn't understand mathematics.

Doing it the other way around would be stupid. As it stands if you have APR such that it's = to 10%, then relatively the mob has 10% less armor when your hitting compared to everyone else in the raid. What else would you expect?
