EA screwed it up with Spore!
I aint talking about the actual game which appears to not have delivered to its hype.
I'm not saying that it isn't a fun game. Not for serious gamers it appears. But then again I'm not a serious gamer.
What I'm talking about is how EA made a bad move and now it is paying for the consequences.
Aside from wether you like the rights management system that EA used to "protect" the game... the problem is "gamers" did not!
Casual gamers buy some games from time to time.
Frequent gamers by a lot - and they're speaking out, and they're making headlines.
The best article so far that I've seen is an ars-technica article
Where are these unhappy potential customers speaking up?
And they are also digging the ars-technica article massively as well.
I rarely use just one browser anymore.
Why Chrome just added another browser to my arsenal and didn't replace anything
I do a lot on the internet, I'm always on.
There are certain sites that I have running almost all the time.
I have 3 monitors and I'm always using all 3 for something or other.
What I'm doing online
I usually have GMail and Facebook (My Profile) on all the time and Twitter 90%+ (My Profile)
I'm usually watching or listening to something as I edit pictures, for that I'll use any one of the following.
Mostly Hulu.tv , pandora.com, abc.com, fox.com, nbc.com, cbs.com, youtube.com, mlb.tv
I'll be writing posts on my photoblog, this blog, or writing documents or spreadsheets on Google Docs
I'll also usually be uploading GBs of pictures up to my SmugMug account
From time to time I'll check the news on Google News, my RSS feader for which I use the flock browser but I might be ditching that for an RSS reader or GooglerRSS reader, we'll see.
Then with those RSS feeds I'm often headed to any number of other sites and blogs.
I'm often checking sports on either ESPN or MLB.com
Which browsers for what
The point of it all is that I'm on the internet a lot and it seems that certain browsers respond better than others.
FF3 has been the browser of choice but sometimes after I watch stuff for a while video and audio seem to just give up. IE rarely has that problem. IE rarely has problems with the java aplet that runs the uploading to smugmug, granted IE is so ridiculously slow after I've been doing these types of things for a while and some time it goes into not responding mode for a bit and is annoying. But it works more consistantly than FF3.
FF3 crashes on me so much that I try not to use intensive sites on it too much. My FTP to my website tool from bluehost webhosting site often crashes FF3
But still after all my complaints about ff3 it is still way better than IE. Flock as I mentioned previously is something I used primarily to check RSS feeds, it did a great job and because it was the actual browser it seemed to make viewing all these different pages very fun and friendly. To bad i set up the RSS feeds on another login than the one I now use and I'm too lazy to export the feeds and import them to the login that I am using.
Chrome... The newcomer
And then in steps Chrome. I must say that I'm amazed by its speed! Truly stunning.
I like the fact it won't crash the whole program if one site causes problems. That was another reason I'd often put one site all alone on it's seperate browser: because I was worried it would crash ff3 and i'd loose all the other sites.
Granted Google Chrome can't really interact with lots of sites at the moment because it lacks the plugins necissary but it does the news and google sites really well 
But since it has a hard time with video sites and a huge thing is that it doesn't have spell check that i don't use it for all my video/ audio needs nor do i use it for typing up stuff like this because then I wouldn't know immediatly that I had misspelled a word.
