This week in Awesome - first week of September/08

Lets get current and topical shall we?

Goodle Chrome
Google's "Chrome" launched today, their first foray into the Web Browsing world. And, like the nerd I am, I downloaded it right away and started tinkering.
The Virdict? It's pretty cool, but not yet Firefox cool.
It looks great visually, I like the tabs layout, the multi-page homepage seems sweet and I'm sure Porn Mode Incognito Mode will come in handy, but when I'm on it, I miss features like the "AwesomeBar" and the Most Visited Button. The potential is there, So I guess we'll see.
But the waiting game sucks, so lets play Hungry Hungry Hippos.

(Also, if you're interested, Here's an interesting article about The Making of Chrome)


The Republican National Convention
Is everyone ready to vote for John McCain and Vice President Publicity Stunt? *sigh*
My mind has a funny way of likening everything to a particular simpsons moment, and this is no different: Remember the episode where Lisa developed a non-sexist doll for little girls named Lisa Lionheart?
Barack Obama = Lisa Lionheart
Sarah Palin = Malibu Stacy's New Hat


The choice is yours, America!


Hamblogger!
My friend Angela does a blog about Hamburgers.
I think it's my favorite blog (Sorry Ted Danson Inc. Rockout.Org UPDATE: Holy Crap! It's being regularly updated again!).
It's such a simple and fun concept, and it must take her no time at all to maintain. Unlike some high falootin' blogs that have no concept and have become a chore to update.
She basically just eats Hamburgers at various resturants, takes photos of them beforehand, and reviews them afterward. FUN!

Everyone should check out HAMBLOGGER
(and Rockout.org, cause apparently he's back to updating again!).

Mishka's 90s Mix
The entire time I've been writing that scatterbrained entry, I've been taking time out to air-drum to This awesome 90s Mix. It's free to download and if you were ever into 90s music (like, if you're older than 8 years old...) you'll probably find something on this you'll dig.
For god's sake, they just blended Smashing Pumpkins into Butthole Surfers!

Get Up Kids Reunion
James Dewees, you Motherfucker.
If you're toying with my emotions, I. WILL. END. YOU.


Thats it. See ya in the funny pages.
