foXpose

Paul Westbrook | 01 December, 2005 19:10

This is pretty cool.  foXpose is a Firefox 1.5 extension that gives you an eXposé-like view into the open tabs that you have in your browser.  It will work on all platforms.  The key command to activate this extension is ctrl + shift + x ( cmd + shift + X on the Mac )

Linux Linksys router

Paul Westbrook | 01 December, 2005 18:15

Linksys has create the 5th version of their WRT54GS router.  This version runs VxWorks instead of Linux.  So it will be a lot harder to install Open Source firmware on it.

But to allow hobbyists to continue to hack on these device, Linksys has released the WRT54GL.  This is the same as version 4 of the WRT54GS.

Problem receiving calls

Paul Westbrook | 01 December, 2005 17:50

Today we had a problem receiving calls on our Vonage line.  I called their Customer support, and they solved the problem.  There were two things that they did.

  1. Added more ports to be forwarded to the Vonage ATA. (Here is a page that has the ports listed)
  2. Had me disable and re-enable the Voice Mail.  The person that I talked to said that there are some scripts that run when Voice Mail is enabled.

New features in Firefox 1.5

Paul Westbrook | 01 December, 2005 09:05

I just used some of the new features in Firefox 1.5. 

  1. You can change the ordering of the tabs just by drag-and-dropping them.
  2. It handles refused connections to web servers differently.  Instead of just showing a dialog, it renders the error in the main html window.  I have included a screen shot of this.
