Are you a Gmail, Facebook, Campfire or Pandora fanatic? Do you have 20 or more browser tabs open at all times? Are you tired of some random site or Flash ad crashing your browser and causing you to lose your (say) Google Docs data in another tab?

If so, Site Specific Browsers (SSBs) provide a great solution for your WebApp woes. Using Fluid, you can create SSBs to run each of your favorite WebApps as a separate Cocoa desktop application. Fluid gives any WebApp a home on your Mac OS X desktop complete with Dock icon, standard menu bar, logical separation from your other web browsing activity, and many, many other goodies.

Fluid includes Tabbed Browsing, built-in Userscripting (aka Greasemonkey), URL pattern matching for browsing whitelists and blacklists, bookmarks, auto-software updates via the Sparkle Update framework, custom SSB icons, a JavaScript API for showing Dock badges, Growl notifications, and Dock menu items, and more.

Below is a list of the experiments related to JavaScript game development here at Nihilogic.dk. Head over to the blog for the most recent updates and developments. Be warned that most of these games are highly experimental and should not be seen as complete games but rather as technical demos and proof-of-concept experiments. Due to the nature of these demos, some of them only work in certain browsers. Check the corresponding blog posts for more technical details.

Computer Users Overeager to Click Popup 'OKs'

Web surfers have a standard reaction to error messages that pop up in their Web browsers, according to new research published this week: They click "OK" and hope it will disappear.

Psychologists at North Carolina State University found that computer users have a hard time distinguishing between fake Windows warning messages and the real thing. In an experiment that tested the responses of 42 Web-browsing university students, they found that almost two-thirds of them -- 63 percent -- would click "OK" whenever they saw a popup warning, whether it was fake or not.

"Many people fall for this style of attack by not recognizing the visual elements that separate real and fake warning windows," the researchers concluded in a paper delivered at an academic conference in New York this week.

That's bad news, security experts say, because fake popup messages can take you to some very bad places on the Internet.

TigerLogic Solutions has just launched ChunkIt!, a personal search engine that allows users to see the possible search results before they are clicked on. The tool saves users from clicking back and forth between sites, wasting time on useless links, and cluttering their screen with too many tabs and open windows. As soon as the tool download is complete, the ChunkIt! box appears in the user’s browsers. The user then enters keywords into the search field, as if it were a regular search engine. From there, ChunkIt! searches through web pages and their links, and extracts the most pertinent and valuable information based on the search criteria. ChunkIt! provides the visual display to accompany and enhance the provided information. ChunkIt! is a free download, and installs in seconds.

A week of Chrome: Google's browser gets 7% share at Ars

By Ryan Paul | Published: September 10, 2008 - 08:45AM CT

Google's Chrome web browser has received lots of attention since its release last week. Although initial interest was very high immediately after the launch, third-party as well as Ars Technica's internal statistics show that Chrome hasn't significantly displaced other browsers yet. The new browser still is pulling around 7 percent market share at Ars, and while it lacks maturity, it could gain more traction as it improves.

Firefox still commands the highest browser marketshare on Ars and is used by approximately half of our readers.

Opera is too sparsely used by Ars readers to be included on the chart, though it's worth noting that Opera may be under-counted because many Opera users change the browser's user agent string.

Chrome is still in a very early stage of development and could see broader marketshare after some of its current limitations are addressed.

The 10 Commandments of Facebook

clipper's remarks: This is the internet, after all, and if something on the internet can be used in an annoying way, you can safely assume that 99% of the population will proceed to do so (go try reading a comment on YouTube if you don’t believe me).

People need rules to tell them how to act. Luckily I went to the top of Mount Internet last night, and God handed me down these 10 Commandments of Facebook for all to obey. Follow them or you’ll go to hell.

The 10 Commandments of Facebook

1. Thou Shalt Not List Every Movie, TV Show, Band and Book You Have Ever Heard Of In Your Profile

2. Thou Shalt Not “Poke” Indiscriminately

3. Thou Shalt Not “Friend” People You Don’t Actually Know

4. Thou Shalt Not Use A Wall As A Private Messaging Function

5. Thou Shalt Not Join A Billion Groups

6. Thou Shalt Not Use Stupid Apps

7. Thou Shalt Not Give “Gifts”

8. Thou Shalt Not Contact People From Your Distant Past While Intoxicated

9. Thou Shalt Not Update Thy Status Message If Thine Status Hath Not Changed (Or If You Have Nothing Clever To Say)

10. Thou Shalt Not Act Like You’re On MySpace

It means no more “pimping” out your page, no more “glitter” pictures, and no more crashing peoples’ browsers with tons of annoying embedded junk in your profile. Are you okay with that? Does the idea of a social networking site that is actually USABLE appeal to you? Even if it means you can’t make your page display blinking purple text on an animated rainbow

Essential tools for Blogger template design (Blogger Template Design Series)

When designing Blogger templates, it's useful to have a set of "tools" available before you begin. So in this installment of the Blogger Template Design series, I have compiled a list of tools I use often when designing themes, from imaging programs to relevant websites and resources you may like to use when designing your own templates.

A test blog

I would strongly advise you to do this using a test blog.

An image manipulation program

This is one of the key tools used when designing Blogger templates. In almost all of the themes I've created, I have needed to use an imaging program to create some aspect of the design.
