I just got back from ACEN and have posted a new photo set on Flickr. This time I brought my little brother along to introduce him to some of the crazies that show up at these conventions. We actually made it to the concert this year by TsuShiMaMiRe which was better than I thought it’d be. The girls were pretty cute - attempting broken English between their songs trying to get the crowd going. Other than that the convention was pretty much the same we’ve always seen. Smelly people, dudes who should be wearing shirts, ladies wearing little-to-nothing, smelly people, and a whole weekend of nothing but pizza.

As I sit here getting my camera ready to go to ACEN, I found a couple pictures on there from the first Soprano’s Night this year. Enjoy.

Jeff is pumped for Sopranos Tough Guy

Also, somebody tell him he needs to update his blog.

Firefox Extensions

Tags: ,

As mostly a reminder to myself, here’s my list of extensions that I use with Firefox:

  • Adblock Plus
    This is a must-have plugin that easily lets you filter out ads. You can block javascript files from loading, images, and even specific div tags. My Adblock Filters.
  • Add N Edit Cookies
    As a web developer, this plugin has come in handy… it provides a nice and easy way to view and edit cookies.
  • del.icio.us
    If you’ve got a del.icio.us account to keep track of your bookmarks, this is plugin provides a great addition to the toolbar in Firefox.
  • Fasterfox
    Easily enables various performance enhancements for Firefox.
  • SearchPluginHacks
    I play with different Firefox search engines from time to time, and this plugin lets me easily remove ones I don’t need.
  • Tab Mix Plus
    The thing I use this plugin the most for is keeping a history of closed tabs so I can just middle-click the tab bar to reopen the last tab that I may have accidentally closed. It also has a whole bunch of other tweaks for the tab bar.

On another note, Firefox v1.5.0.3 just dropped a couple days ago to fix a particularly nasty bug. You should be able to quickly upgrade by going to your Help menu, and then clicking Check for Updates.
