Lost Nation Airport held a small air show this last weekend, with a number of vintage airplanes in attendance.
The photos I took while there are available here .
Video of the Day: Human Space Invaders
Vader Sessions
Looking for a Darth Vader that's crazier, and therefore scarier, than the original?
Take a look at akjak.com 's video of original Star Wars footage combined with dialogue from James Earl Jone's other movies.
The comedy is only heightened by just how well timed some of the sequences are.
Firefox 2 Beta 1
If you're a fan of the Internet Explorer alternative Firefox , you might be interested in downloading the recent Firefox 2 beta 1 release.
This preview of the next series of Firefox builds doesn't look particularly different on the outside, but improvements in page rendering and memory usage make it much faster that the 1.5.x line. I'm also a particular fan of the built-in spell-checking for text entry boxes.
After you've installed the beta, you might notice that a number of your add-ons and extensions have been disabled as being "incompatible". You can get around this by downloading the Nightly Tester Tools add-on, installing and restarting. From there you can go to Tools -> Add-ons and hit the Make All Compatible. This overrides the version number compatibility set by the add-on's author, but will allow many plugins to work without much issue.

Some of the design choices are very striking, yet perfectly in line with what one would expect from the popular search engine company.
