Mail update

[venta]

Following this, I think I'm happy to declare my blacktreacle email to be working again. So if you're mailing me, please use that address (elizabeth at blacktreacle.com).

In other excitements, having just discovered from Sysadmin #2 that work's policy on browsers isn't quite what I thought it was, I've just gone all Firefoxy. Opinions may be forthcoming when I have some.

Re: My First Firefox Question

Opera allows bookmarks to be given nicknames. If you enter the nickname in to URL field, the bookmark gets opened.

So I could just type "lj" for example.

As I've just checked, it also allows nicknames on bookmark folders. Which opens all the bookmarks in the folder.

Don't know if Firefox allows the same technique. Or whether (gasp!) using the keyboard is too complicated.

Not sure either, I haven't really had chance to experiment properly with anything beyond the obvious yet.

I just checked, and it doesn't allow that.

Firefox has stolen the nicknames idea - which is nice. But only for individual bookmarks, not for the actual folders.

This is probably why I use Opera at home - because I do more browsing there. At work, it's pretty much just a couple of news sites and LJ - so Firefox suffices.

Firefox is my second choice browser, and IE is my last choice unless I know I have to use it. My choices typically go Opera, Firefox, K-Meleon, lynx, telnet [hostname] 80, Internet Explorer.
