- murk, on 07/06/2009, -0/+6Let me know when they figure out how to put these on sharks.
- dazparkour, on 07/06/2009, -0/+5I don't know why you are being buried, my joke sucked.
- snarkastic, on 07/06/2009, -0/+4Yet more DM spam. Bury this please...

First of all, the first one is about the bone marrow cure i talked about. the other one is not a cure. - Inceptious, on 07/06/2009, -1/+3Find just ONE front page story which claims we have cured cancer or aids (but not the bone marrow one since we all know it DID cure someone its just not scaleable) . I dare you.
- CeeJayDK, on 07/06/2009, -0/+2The theme is Chromifox Basic. I've turned the menubar into the settings icon (the wrench) with Personal Menu.
Chromifox Basic theme - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/8782/
Personal Menu: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/3895/
You can make Firefox more Chrome-like with other extentions and some greasemonkey scripts , but this is good enough for me.
I'm not really trying to emulate Chrome completely , I just really like the theme (and hate the new fisherprice / XP look of the new Firefox 3.x theme) and I like the extra screen estate.
If you're after a more complete Chrome-look , you should try :
autoHideStatusbar: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1530/
Tab Mix Plus: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1122/
Locationbar²: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/4014/
I don't use them myself , because I think they have quirks , that annoys me and I don't need to clutter my firefox with extentions.
I just use :
Chromifox basic (chomifox extreme have a few quirks i'd rather be without)
Personal Menu
Adblock plus
Xmarks
and

http://digg.com/health/Studies_Confirm_Vitamin_C_a ... - ohreilly, on 07/06/2009, -1/+3Will this be offered to the immigrants who plague our fine country and congest the NHS with their ills?
What effect does this have on the house prices of middle-class fine upstanding law abiding homes?
Will this mean that the busybody PC wishy-washy Labour council will collect our bins more often than 2 times a year?
Aren't we glad that a fine upstanding British fellow seems to have developed the treatment rather than those damn Krauts.
These are the questions that the Daily Mail forgot to ask (and I know I will be dugg down for this by everyone who doesn't know what the Mail really is about - which must be a lot considering how often the Daily Mail reaches the front page) - clouds31, on 07/06/2009, -0/+1"Laser"
- Wingin, on 07/06/2009, -0/+1Well I know this isn't available right away and for people who need it urgently that's sad - but omg this really looks like it will be a big deal for many to come. This has been such a significant issue for so many people and I don't recall ever hearing about anything so hopeful on the topic previously.
- inactive, on 07/06/2009, -0/+1For those who don't know.
Normal contents of Daily Mail:
Front page: Muslim immigrants are raping your children RIGHT NOW!
The rest: Political correctness gone mad, blah-blah-blah, nanny state, EU bad, some sports *****.
Burried. - puter, on 07/06/2009, -1/+2Is commonest a word?

- trendygamer, on 07/07/2009, -0/+1Anyone else find it amazing that the stupid toy you were told not to shoot in someone's eye or you'd blind them as a kid is being used to cure every manner of eye defect on the planet?

- impossiblename, on 07/06/2009, -0/+0Yeah sounds kind of strange but it is. From the Oxford English dictionary; "common: adjective (commoner, commonest)..."
