Google Chrome - not so shiny

Well, most of us know that Google has released their own web browser - Google Chrome. Well, I've tested it enough to say, I loathe this browser. Where shall we start? 1. It crashes constantly. Time after time I have loaded a web page only to find it 'die' on me. It's usually a page containing Flash. I've seen that updating Flash to version 10 or doing other things may improve this, but I don't want to have install unnecessary components to work the browser 2. Fast? Ahem, I thi… Continue

IRC Clients for Windows

Groups

Geeks has this thing called 'Groups' that everyone can join and talk about that group. I created a group when I first joined Geeks, called 'mIRC' *obviously because of the IRC client I love :D* and I think this is fantastic idea because it allows us 'geeks' to join and discuss the topics or things we love. If you're looking to create a group, why not go ahead and create one, I was shocked when my group reached 15+ members, I know have 50+ members, and I'm really, truely grateful that I created i… Continue
