I like FireFox 3 RC 1. It still sucks up some memory but it is faster. I got most of my extensions working, minus Google Toolbar which I use for bookmarking (if only bookmarking sites were around in the late 90’s, I had some great sites I use to visit). You would think the company supporting FireFox could get their plugin to work the quickest right? Grant stopped by yesterday and said he doesn’t really use FireFox extensions so no big deal for him. He doesn’t know the power of the dark side extensions. Typical MAC guy :)

First of all Drupal administration UI is different, not all bad, but definitely different. It has a clean look & feel to it but there is not a logical placement of where to edit things, etc… Compared to Joomla UI is doesn’t stack up, but on the good side it actually works much better then Joomla or DotNetNuke (whose admin UI also takes a while to get used to). Maybe it’ll grow on me or at least I’ll understand their logic.
I was racking my brain trying to figure out how to enable the forums in the navigation section. I could clearly see where it was disabled but couldn’t for the life of me figure out where to enable it.
Here is the UI of it:
Clearly it’s disabled, right? Turns out although the checkbox looks disabled, in reality to turn it on you are suppose to select it anyway’s. Come on guys, things that look disabled are suppose to act disabled.
