Norton AntiVirus begone!

Posted on December 8, 2008 by kirabug

I’ve sworn for years that installing Norton AntiVirus is like installing a virus and I’m not alone… so if you’re one of the unlucky ones, this Macworld article will show you how to uninstall.

Then you can try something less scary, like Intego VirusBarrier, or just use your brain before clicking links, and pray you stay lucky, like I do.

Ever wonder if people have enough time on their hands?

Recipe reviews for “Salted water for boiling” at Epicurious.com.

Starts on page 2 because the page 1 ones aren’t all that great.

Mmm, boiled water.

Neil Gaiman’s Journal: Why defend freedom of icky speech?

Posted on December 1, 2008 by kirabug

This article is one of the best-written defenses of freedom of speech that I have read in some memory, and you should read it too.

You, too, can support free speech by supporting the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund.

Google Uses Web Searches to Track Flu’s Spread

Posted on November 20, 2008 by kirabug

Think you’re coming down with the flu? If you’re like a growing trend, you’re googling “flu symptoms” and similar terms before you’re calling the doctor. The result: Google can tell where the flu is spreading based on what regions are doing the searching.

Just thinking about it gives me a sore throat ;)
