Hot on the heels of me bigging up Chrome in a previous post I got a bit of a shock when I tried to visit Google adsense from Google Analytics

yes, I know it’s because of the ’s’

    hehe, lol! I know!
    there were so many posts about Chrome (including the one previous to this) that I thought I’d jump on the bandwagon :-P

    I wonder where you found that out? ;)

    haha, that’s funny how we blogged the same kind of thing on the same day about similar things when something as big Chrome comes out… oh mercy! the odds of that happening eh? ;-)

    LOL! Talk about left hand not knowing what right hand is doing.

    LOL What will Google’s logo be next week? Perhaps a couple of blushing faces instead of the O’s ?

    (BTW I joined CommentLuv.com and put my site in the Profile, but my list of latest posts is not showing in the dropdown. Was that the right place to register my site?)

    Update - I figured out how to add and verify my site. It said it was verified, but I’m still getting “Register your site…” in the dropdown, rather than a list of my latest posts

    Jon: as far as I can see, your site is the only one registered with a trailing slash so I’ll see if I can update that when I get back home

    Jon (31 comments.) September 6, 2008

    Andy - cool, let me know when, and I’ll test it again

    Jon: it should be working now, it was what I thought it was. the trailing slash problem has been sorted.

    this is what beta testing is for! thanks for your feedback

    Dennis: dude, where ya been? oh wait, convenient last blog post gives an explanation. wow, you really didn’t knee’d that to happen eh? lol

    Andy - almost there. It’s listing posts now, but not showing my latest post (published Saturday morning). Technorati and Google Feedreader both picked up my latest post earlier, so I think the feed is OK and up-to-date

    chrome won’t take over firefox in my eyes just yet. It is bloody good on a dual/quad core system but on my single core laptop it is no better than firefox.

    incognito mode is interesting thoughseans last blog post..Student Assassinated at Graduation Ceremony

    jon: the plugin uses curl from the commentluv.com domain to parse the feed pointed to by your feed link so it should see what you see when you browse to your feed. I can’t think why it is not picking up the very latest post, maybe some protection by wordpress or feedburner that prevents scraping of the very latest post?

    sean: ah yes, I suppose I haven’t tried it on a laptop yet. I still have to load up FF a few times if I want advanced web developer stuff so it’s not the greatest ever yet but it has potential!

    Jon (31 comments.) September 8, 2008

    Hi Andy

    Seems to be working OK now. I made a new post on my blog about 20 minutes ago, and CommentLuv has listed it this time. Weird, maybe there was a cache somewhere that didn’t get updated!

    Andy, did you see the blog post over on loadofbullshit.com about the license agreement they launched Chrome with?

    Pretty scary stuff if you ask me…Proxys last blog post..schoolworksurfing.info

    Denver PC Repair Guy (1 comments.) September 10, 2008

    Yeah, I think it’s pretty wild the licensing agreement. Google is pretty much stating they own the rights to everything you do on the internet.

    I don’t think so.

    And people wonder why google got an anti-trust lawsuit against them???

    Chris Hutcherson (1 comments.) October 2, 2008

    That’s a riot. I’d expect to see something like that in MSIE, but not in Firefox or Chrome, of course! I had no idea how bad the EULA was originally… hey, do no evil, right… at least don’t get caught!

    Chrome’s last visited pages feature is awesome. Im still a big firefox user but I am slowly starting to use chrome more and more.
