Today I want to share 3 links to let you have fun while surfing on the net.

The first one is PMOG - Passively Multiplayer Online Game. It is on beta stage and you can only register for a beta announcement. They sum up with the paragraph below what this game will look like :

PMOG is an infinite game built on individual network histories, transforming our web surfing into ongoing social play. With a game head-up display in Firefox, players can bomb each other, wage war over web sites, and lead other users on web missions. Ordinary web sites become caches for items and currency. PMOG fuses an MMO into our WWW.

I found the idea cool. Without actively playing a game is a different and creative idea and integrating it into surfing WWW is another big deal. I have just signed up and cannot wait for it goes live…

The other two sites are for the people who ever dreamed for sketching a cartoon series but couldn’t because of their lack of skill.  Well, I do have a skill and maybe I should improve it but with the latest Ajax technology of today’s HTML world, it is now possible to create your own cartoon series with a huge help of these two sites: ToonDoo and Pixton. You can create your own cartoon or read and vote others’ make comments etc. So, they’re built on a classical Web2.0 concept but again with an innovative idea.

I was not sure when I clicked on the download button for Firefox’s latest version 3 which is at the second beta stage, but I found out that it has great advantages over Firefox 2 and still safe to use, I gave it a try.

I will report my review as soon as possible…

I installed Flock a week ago. I was using Firefox since it was released as beta and I am a big fan of it. I was designing my designs mainly for Firefox when very few developers was using to check the compatibility of their designs to Firefox.

Then I met Flock. The first time was its first beta version and had many bugs. After some time and exactly a week ago I wanted to give one more try to this “social browser” and here are my opinions:

  • I liked it at the first sight, because it uses the same codebase of Firefox.
  • It deserves to be named as “the social browser”. The integration of many social websites like Facebook, Youtube, Flickr etc. makes it unique.
  • It also has many add-ons & extensions like Firefox.
  • It’s also as slow as Firefox. I don’t think there’s much difference about it. (By the way this was the main reason I gave a try to Flock because Firefox is getting slower and slower.)
  • Batch uploads, quick searches etc. - such options are already integrated with it. Very useful.

As I told you above, it is a great browser to use when you are a social networking and browsing freak. But an optimization-maniac like me would not prefer it, too.

Anyway, which one of both you will choose isn’t important, never ever choose Internet Explorer! :)

This is my first message I post to my blog via ScribeFire.
ScribeFire is a Firefox extension (which is extremely recommended by mozilla add-on section), which you can use to write posts and send it to your blog without interrupting your internet surfing. It’s a cool software and this is my first message. I’ll immediately take a look how it will be shown on my website :)
