- bigbadgoat, on 12/22/2007, -9/+241English, mother *****. Do you speak it?
- bitspace, on 12/22/2007, -0/+63This is one of the most painfully funny things I've seen in quite some time. I can't quite tell whether it's an attempt at parody or if the poster is just stupid.
- ebertek, on 12/22/2007, -1/+64so, this is like Google's Browser Sync, just more? :)
- inactive, on 12/22/2007, -0/+50Up until August 23, he did.
http://www.neaveru.com/digg/stats/hungarianhuman - Duncster, on 12/22/2007, -7/+56Ok Mozilla, take up more memory, it's all right, I don't need it...
- digitalvik, on 12/22/2007, -6/+55Now this is really going to be interesting!
A platform that would help a Web browser (Firefox) to integrate social networking features! - ebertek, on 12/22/2007, -0/+45I'm so ashamed of being a Hungarian myself now, sir.. :(
- JohnM5, on 12/22/2007, -0/+40I like this one comment he had(from when he knew English):
"What the heck is Basra? I think you mean Baghdad... Buried."
He was speaking about a digg titled "British forces useless in Basra, say officials " - Archon810, on 12/22/2007, -3/+42Yes, except I believe they will raise it to a new level and finally allow users to setup such syncing to our own servers. I, for one, welcome our new weaving overlords.
- seldon452, on 12/22/2007, -6/+44Wow, a better Firefox? I love it already!
- saifatlast, on 12/22/2007, -2/+39Hey, flock you too, douchebag.
- Mononuclear, on 12/22/2007, -0/+33wow that is interesting. It goes from complete sentences that are more or less grammatically correct to incoherent AOL speak... I am guessing he was in a car accident or someone else is using the account now.
- norbiu, on 12/22/2007, -0/+33I think he forgot to close the sarcasm tag or something. This ***** is too funny.
- theodenking, on 12/22/2007, -2/+33Well it has a cool logo.
- Dennern, on 12/22/2007, -0/+28Another one of HungarianHuman's extremely uh.... uh.... whatever comments:
"i wouldnt call the bible fiction personally im an atheist but i believe in God but what about the bible? well i dont know i think it has some good meanings but i dunno brb, i need 2 use the bathroom" - mpete510, on 12/22/2007, -11/+38It is already out there. It is called "Flock".
- Vinvin, on 12/22/2007, -3/+29Dude, you allright? >.<
- UKsHaDoW, on 12/22/2007, -1/+25Is this a joke?
- jj1075, on 12/22/2007, -0/+23Hey, you know it's tough when you have to drop a deuce so bad that you are able to be an atheist and believe in a god at the same time. He could have could saved himself from a severe philosophical dilemma and lower abdominal heresy by going to the can first.
- Archon810, on 12/23/2007, -0/+23There was one that got 25 diggs, when he called a model ugly, though she was hot, but I think he actually meant it and people misconstrued it for sarcasm.
Another nice quote:
"What a stupid submission.
kevinrose, welcome to my blocklist." - ThE0eNiGmA, on 12/22/2007, -0/+23Can't believe everybody forgot this guy already. Welcome back, Master Troll.
P.S.
Don't feed the troll. - jake6730, on 12/22/2007, -0/+22So this basically synchronizes Firefox with a central server, like all your passwords and stuff? This would be pretty cool since I have multiple computers with multiple operating systems on each. That is if I understood correctly.
- tarentinos, on 12/22/2007, -0/+22Because this is Digg, and we use Firefox exclusively.
- sgoogle, on 12/22/2007, -0/+18Check out Fx 3 beta, doesn't use as much memory. It's still high, but it is used for 'features' rather than the 300+ memory leaks they fixed
- byrdgang, on 12/23/2007, -0/+18Another comment from HungarianHuman here on Digg:
"i dont know how to pronounce nvidia so i will NEVER buy their products" - timdorr, on 12/22/2007, -0/+17Actually, it doesn't appear to be about social networking. It's more about metadata for your Firefox profile or certain websites being stored in a central location. It sounds a lot like a more ambitious version of Google Browser Sync: http://www.google.com/tools/firefox/browsersync/
- TStanNY, on 12/22/2007, -1/+18Congratulations. I think that might be the longest sentence I've ever seen in a while. At first I thought it was l33t speaking but I realized that they use periods and stuff every now and then.
- ebertek, on 12/22/2007, -0/+16Google Browser Sync does it with cookies, passwords, bookmarks, history and open tabs..
- Ancestor, on 12/22/2007, -0/+16Dear fanboy,
OPERA DID NOT INVENT REMOTE DATA SYNCING - hadak, on 12/22/2007, -0/+16Ahh. It all begins to make sense now. I've been using Google Browser Sync for quite some time now. I'm really excited if I can extend this functionality to include themes and extensions, and sync to a server other than Google's. (Not that there's anything wrong with Google knowing my browsing habbits and bookmarks...hell, they already house my email, financial information, calendar, and soul.)
- thetanbark, on 12/22/2007, -2/+17How Weave might be used...
https://labs.mozilla.com/forum/index.php/topic,392 ...
1. Automatic backup and restore - Dan's hard drive has died. Like many folks, Dan had never gotten around to getting that backup solution he knew he needed. Dan feels miserable when he thinks of all the software he needs to install, the stuff he's lost, and all the account names and passwords he'll never remember. Then he realizes that his family photos, email and calendar are all hosted online, as well as all of the services he uses to manage his life: his banking, shopping, purchased music and more. With his replacement computer in hand, he installs Firefox, logs in to his Mozilla account and resumes his online life without skipping a beat.
2. Personalization made portable - Myk likes to visit his Mom on weekends. He doesn't have a laptop, so he uses his mom's computer when he visits. He used to be annoyed because, though he installed Firefox on his Mom's PC, he missed having easy access to his favorite sites and RSS feeds, and having to remember all his account names and passwords. He logs into his Mozilla account and his personalized experience returns. And, just as importantly, when he logs out, all of the cookies, bookmarks and other information is cleared from his Mom's PC so that she doesn't accidentally log in to his email account or anything else he was browsing.
3. Get up and go - Rhian and Chris are going to meet their friends at a hip new restaurant in San Francisco. Rhian goes to the restaurant's Web site to check out the menu and see where it's located. Great, the site includes directions. She prints them out, and they hop into Chris's car and head out. Duh! Rhian realizes she left the print-out at the printer (as usual). She fires up Firefox on her mobile phone. Because her mobile Firefox "knew" about what she had been browsing at her desktop, she only needs to type the first few letters of the restaurant name and she's back at the Web site. They easily make their way to a great dinner.
4. Collaborative bookmarking - Ken and Karen are planning a trip to Calfornia. Ken has found some flights, and is looking into rental cars and trying to put together an itinerary to see Disney Land, SeaWorld, LegoLand and the San Diego Zoo. His wife wants to make sure the various hotels are kid-friendly and pick out some good restaurants. Ken creates a new bookmarks folder for the trip and shares it with Karen. He bookmarks their flight itinerary. As he finds pages for hotels that look good, newspaper articles about local attractions and restaurant reviews, he adds them to this folder. When Karen can grab a few minutes, she can look at the pages Ken has seen and add her own. She can reorganize, annotate, and organize them on a calendar. Ken and Karen can organize a great trip, with less stress. We're going to Disney Land! - metaknite, on 12/22/2007, -9/+24Correct, though it certainly gets better press because there are more Firefox fanboys than Opera fanboys.
- vonskippy, on 12/22/2007, -2/+16I'll wait for their follow up project, codenamed: "comb over".
- stalefries, on 12/22/2007, -0/+14I'll digg anything with a cool logo!
- chugger1992, on 12/22/2007, -5/+18so is it not unlike http://link.opera.com/ ?
- jj1075, on 12/22/2007, -1/+13I and everyone here is a little bit more stupid for having read that. I now must go turn in my high school diploma.
- Archon810, on 12/22/2007, -1/+12I didn't know it was up to you to decide what hits the front page, simonwo. Forgive us, lame diggers! And humbly learn the ***** "they're, their, there" rule already, you dick. I'm sorry, master!
- stalefries, on 12/22/2007, -0/+11If you're going to be snarky, at least use the reply button.
- dxgg, on 02/05/2008, -0/+11Oooo great example of a run-on sentence!
- debuggercll, on 12/22/2007, -1/+12You used that same reply for the article named "sex".
- mrmacky, on 12/22/2007, -3/+14[sarcasm]Buried for innacuracy. It is impossible to enhance Firefox's user experience.[/sarcasm]
- hadak, on 12/22/2007, -0/+11...why? This adds functionality that's actually useful. How many people out there manually install all their extensions and themes on multiple computers, then manually transfer their bookmarks, session information, cookies, etc? I know I do. I would love an extension like this. And that's exactly it - it's an extension. Just like all the rest, you can disable it.
- ThE0eNiGmA, on 12/22/2007, -0/+11Wow, I have never heard of that site before. I actually looked at all his posts to see if there were any that weren't dugg down. There weren't, but if there had been... All I can guess is that he is a troll, and has figured out that speaking in gibberish like that throws us for an even bigger loop.
- kiantech, on 12/22/2007, -0/+11by your own logic I bury you! HA!
- willy1234x1, on 12/22/2007, -1/+11All I'm getting from these comments is rabble rabble memory leak memory leak memory leak rabble. Shut the ***** up about that they fixed that as of beta 2 and this is for beta 2 and up (currently unavailable) so all this memory leak bitching is retarded.
- jjb123, on 12/22/2007, -0/+10That is correct, technically it already exists as Google sync but weave will be able sync templates, extensions, and other things as well.
- clark24, on 12/22/2007, -0/+9Generally FF uses all available memory anyway.. maybe this will put it to good use!
- iofthestorm, on 12/22/2007, -0/+9Looks a lot like the Visual Studio 6 logo.
- Karmavs, on 12/22/2007, -0/+8It's not a new concept - Google's done it, Apple's done it (before Opera with .Mac), and there are a host of third party plug-ins for many browsers that tap into existing bookmarking services such as del.icio.us.
- afx1, on 12/22/2007, -0/+8zing!
