Get Chrome Home Page in Firefox

  • Jul 16, 2009
  • Post a comment

Since 29. Jan Google offers their Google Toolbar 5 for Firefox and with it the "new tab" page, looking like this

Google-toolbar-new-tab
Google-toolbar-new-tab

But as in chrome, I liked to have it as my home page as well. And here's how it's done (pretty simple):

Go to Tools -> Options -> Main and set chrome://google-toolbar/content/new-tab.html as Home Page.

Firefox Options
Firefox Options

That's it... and no addon is needed (beside maybe the Google Toolbar). :)

Wow, very catchy "advertising":

"The first heavy rains after summer bring the highest death tool on New Zealand roads..."

Before rain

Bloody Billboard before rain

and after
Bloody Billboard

This campaign did it to the news, too:

What do Obama, Pope & Hasselhoff have in common?

  • May 27, 2009
  • 1 comment

They are all Antichrists!

At least if you search on Google and the (relativley) new "tool" Google Suggest:

Obama is
Obama is


Hey wow, I wouldn't have expected so many bad suggestions...

The Pope is
The Pope is


...fairly contrary to what I expected from the Pope's suggestions...^^

...or to Another (expected) Antichrist is... yep, George W. Bush's:

Bush is
Bush is


So, David Hasselhoff is missing:


David Hasselhoff is
David Hasselhoff is

OK GUYS, DAVID HASSELHOFF IS NOT GERMAN!!!oneeleven
He may be the Antichrist, but he neither contributed to the German reunification nor is he German. FU!
(and I listened to "Looking for freedom" just because of the melody... I SWEAR! (dammit)

Here are the suggestions for good old Germany:

Germany is
Germany is

What are we known/famous for? I'd guess:
- Wurst (sausages)
- Bier (beer)
- Sauerkraut (kraut)
- Lederhosen (leather trousers)
- Pünktlichkeit (timeliness)
- Klassische Musik (classical music)
- and some more...

Other countries:

France is
France is

Pretty similar to Germany. Let me tell you: most suggests for European countries are "known/famous for", "located", "europe", "about the size".
So let's switch to:

USA is
USA is

Ouch, financial crisis sends its love... but the USA are still better than Canada?


Canada is
Canada is

WTF!? s.o. doesn't know on which continent Canada is... Ô,O

-

I also looked for some other suggestions:

Bin Laden

Bin Laden is
Bin Laden is

Conspiracy, uh uh...

-

Sport, Football, Soccer:


Sport is
Sport is

"Sport is war minus the shooting"
How true. Think about it.


Football is
Football is
"Football is better than soccer" - we will see:


Soccer is
Soccer is
"Soccer is ruining America" and you know y? Because it's NOT better than soccer and will loose its popularity more'n'more. ;)

-

Bill Gates


Bill Gates is
Bill Gates is
Pretty boring...

-

Google vs. Yahoo vs. Microsoft vs. Apple

Google is
Google is


"Google is Skynet". -> "John Connor, it is time!"
:D


Yahoo is

"Yahoo is better than Google" or "Yahoo is not undefined"? Hm...


Microsoft is
Microsoft is

"Microsoft is dead" but still "better than Apple"... or?


Apple is
Apple is

Haha, "Apple is the new Microsoft" and accordingly "the devil", "an evil evil company". ;)

-

Food: McDonalds, Burger King and Kentucky Fried Chicken


McDonalds is

No it isn't.


Burger King is
Burger King is

No, it isn't.


kfc is

And finally: The most popular female celebrities according to Google:

Kim Kardashian

Hmmm, love her or hate her.

REAL Jumbo! Awesome Video.

  • Jan 23, 2009
  • Post a comment

Awesome video on behalf of the International Fund for Animal Welfare (Germany): 


Spot-1885
The text at the end of the video:
"If they wanted to come, they'd do." 
and
"No animal as souvenir."


Another good spot is this:
IFAW "Safari" TV-Spot
just fyi: there's one part with a women speaking German (around 00:37 to 00:40). She just says:"He's talking shi*, isn't he?"


Do you know any similar videos?
