New Mozilla fan

I certainly am not biased against Microsoft, but have to say that since coming back from holiday, have been a bit fed up.

Coming back home to the wide-screen monitor, with my 'normal' xp pc, and nice and fast broadband I looked forward to seeing the holiday snaps as good as they could be seen. (Nothing against my trusty laptop, but it does have a 15" screen, bless it).

The pictures from Wales were great, but on viewing the Cam for today and the week, I thought 'they're not as sharp as they were when I sent them up the line to the server'.

A replacement graphics card, didn't make a scrap of difference, they weren't sharp.

This morning, I thought 'I wonder if it could be the 'new' Internet Explorer 8', so downloaded and installed Firefox 3, and ..... that's it, the pictures are as sharp as they were when I resized them down for the web.

So I have to tell you, please, at least try Mozilla Firefox for your browsing.

I wouldn't want you to think the daily pictures are fuzzy !

Firstly

Welcome to more work for me. The Cam takes roughly three-quarters of an hour to post each day, but I wanted to keep you informed on things going on in and around my bit of lakeland, things that I think are important. This is it: Tone'sWeBlog.

Please don't expect too much at first, but in the coming weeks there will be little snippets which will hopefully keep you in touch, and amuse you.
