A few interesting stories from around the blogosphere:
* Via “DownloadSquad”:http://www.downloadsquad.com/2006/04/02/google-accelerator-is-back-but-for-how-long/ – Google’s beta for their Web Accelerator product, which had been revoked after a short beta and had sparked privacy concerns, is back for download and use for Windows users. It supports IE and Firefox and judging from past experience, may not be available for long.
* Via “T. Longren’s blog”:http://www.longren.org/archives/2131 I came across this interesting “blog statistics tool”:http://performancing.com/ which may “make life easier for bloggers everywhere”:http://www.solutionwatch.com/327/blog-statistics-with-performancing-metrics/.
* Via “Les Jones’ blog”:http://www.lesjones.com/posts/003100.shtml there’s a cool Windows (yes, that _other_ OS) setting for making text look clearer called “Cleartype”:http://www.microsoft.com/typography/cleartype/tuner/Step1.aspx.
