Then Old Age, and Experience, hand in hand,
Lead him to Death, and make him understand,
After a search so painful, and so long
That all his life he has been in the wrong.
Huddled in dirt the reasoning engine lies,
Who was so proud, so witty and so wise.

Joke: iTunes does not have a pause button
07
Dec
So what’s the idea behind this? You can play music but can not pause unless you move your mouse cursor to the song and right click to bring up the menu and hit Pause? With Spacebar that means I’ll have to be in Music mode, which happens to be not the default mode for me when opening. I am using iTunes 10.5.1.42 with Windows 7. Some smart guy tell me the reasoning of the designer here? What’s wrong with a Pause button?
(Ah, also, there’s also a need for Delete key function on iPhone/iPad.)
(Oh, and what’s wrong with a two-button mouse?)
Zotero Standalone

Tested it, not impressed. I hope it’s never done…
I know, I know…I am using Firefox for Zotero only. Without Zotero FF would disappear from my applications.
Don’t get me wrong, I still love FF. It’s just the slowness and the crashes have become unbearable.
I do hope FF gets popular again just like when it first tackled IE with the ad on New York Times.
Wouldn’t it be nice if FF plays a come-back just like John Travolta?
