Unlucky people are narrowly focused, he observed. They crave security and tend to be more anxious, and instead of wading into the sea of random chance open to what may come, they remain fixated on controlling the situation, on seeking a specific goal. As a result, they miss out on the thousands of opportunities that may float by."]]></description>

With so many ways for Google’s choices to be overridden, victory comes through surpassing the competition. Android is so flexible, I’ve replaced my home screen, lock screen, keyboard and more over the years. I’m back on the regular keyboard, because Google made it better, to the point that I liked it the most. But I could change my mind tomorrow.

The point isn’t that the built-in keyboard is or isn’t better. The point is that any given Android keyboard is better than the default iOS keyboard, because of this competition. I’ve used both, and there is just no comparison.

An interesting take on the Android versus iOS battle. CEO Tim Cook hinted in a recent interview that Apple may consider loosening its restrictions on developers replacing core parts of iOS. Behrens provides food for thought on why that may be a good thing.]]></description>

The situation was an utter disgrace. The advertising industry even gave an award to an Irish Minister for destroying some of the rights in the regulation while the UK managed to force a provision that would make the direct marketing industry a “legitimate” processing operation in its own right, putting it on the same level of lawful processing as fraud prevention. Things got to the point where even the most senior data protection officials in Europe stopped trying to influence events and had told me “let the chips fall as they may”. [...] But let’s take a step back for a moment from this travesty. Out on the streets – while most may not know what data protection is – people certainly know what it is supposed to protect. People value their privacy and they will be vocal about attempts to destroy it. I had said as much to the joint parliamentary meeting, observing “the one element that has been left out of all these efforts is the public”. However, as the months rolled on, the only message being sent to the public was that data protection is an anachronism stitched together with self interest and impracticality. [...] I wasn’t aware at the time that there was a vast stitch-up to kill the reforms. I cannot bring myself to present a temperate report with measured wording that pretends this is all just normal business. It isn’t normal business, and it should never be normal business in any civilized society. How does one talk in measured tones about such endemic hypocrisy and deception? If you want to know who the real enemy of privacy is, don’t just look to the American agencies. The real enemy is right here in the European Parliament in the guise of MEPs who have knowingly sold our rights away to maintain powerful relationships. I’d like to say they were merely hoodwinked into supporting the vandalism, but many are smart people who knew exactly what they were doing.

Nice work, Irish presidency! His bottom line:

Is there a way forward? I believe so. First, governments should yield to common decency and scrap the illegitimate and poisoned Irish Council draft and hand the task to the Lithuanian Presidency that commences next month. Second, the Irish and British governments should be infinitely more transparent about their cooperation with intrusive interests that fuelled the deception.]]></description>

This paper introduces MonitorRank, an algorithm that can reduce the time, domain knowledge, and human effort required to ﬁnd the root causes of anomalies in such service-oriented architectures. In the event of an anomaly, MonitorRank provides a ranked order list of possible root causes for monitoring teams to investigate. MonitorRank uses the historical and current time-series metrics of each sensor as its input, along with the call graph generated between sensors to build an unsupervised model for ranking. Experiments on real production outage data from LinkedIn, one of the largest online social networks, shows a 26% to 51% improvement in mean average precision in ﬁnding root causes compared to baseline and current state-of-the-art methods.

This is a topic close to my heart after working on something similar for 3 years in Amazon! Looks interesting, although (a) I would have liked to see more case studies and examples of "real world" outages it helped with; and (b) it's very much a machine-learning paper rather than a systems one, and there is no discussion of fault tolerance in the design of the detection system, which would leave me worried that in the case of a large-scale outage event, the system itself will disappear when its help is most vital. (This was a major design influence on our team's work.) Overall, particularly given those 2 issues, I suspect it's not in production yet. Ours certainly was ;)]]></description>

at Etsy, we really love to make graphs. We graph everything! Anywhere we can slap a StatsD call, we do. As a result, we’ve found ourselves with over a quarter million distinct metrics. That’s far too many graphs for a team of 150 engineers to watch all day long! And even if you group metrics into dashboards, that’s still an awful lot of dashboards if you want complete coverage. Of course, if a graph isn’t being watched, it might misbehave and no one would know about it. And even if someone caught it, lots of other graphs might be misbehaving in similar ways, and chances are low that folks would make the connection. We’d like to introduce you to the Kale stack, which is our attempt to fix both of these problems. It consists of two parts: Skyline and Oculus. We first use Skyline to detect anomalous metrics. Then, we search for that metric in Oculus, to see if any other metrics look similar. At that point, we can make an informed diagnosis and hopefully fix the problem.

It'll be interesting to see if they can get this working well. I've found it can be tricky to get working with low false positives, without massive volume to "smooth out" spikes caused by normal activity. Amazon had one particularly successful version driving severity-1 order drop alarms, but it used massive event volumes and still had periodic false positives. Skyline looks like it will alarm on a single anomalous data point, and in the comments Abe notes "our algorithms err on the side of noise and so alerting would be very noisy."]]></description>

"I cannot think of anything, outside of a face-to-face conversation, that they could not have access to." One unanswered question, according to a former technology executive at one of the companies involved, is whether the government can use the data from Prism to work backward. … Schneier, the author and security expert, said it doesn't really matter how Prism works, technically. Just assume the government collects everything, he said. He said it doesn't matter what the government and the companies say, either. It's spycraft, after all.

Foursquare users are a helpful lot, especially when it comes to travel. If you find yourself in the unfortunate situation of being stuck at an airport without free Wi-Fi, just ask Foursquare for the insider access.

The travel blog foXnoMad points out you can track down a wireless password for an airport just by Googling something like "foursquare Ataturk Airport." Search for the words "wifi" or "wireless" and you should find tips on either where you can grab free Wi-Fi (e.g., inside some airport bar) or the wireless password. The article also points out two free apps specifically for filtering Foursquare Wi-Fi tips: 4sqwifi (iOS) and Venue Spot (Android).

It's a good trick to know if that URL hack or just asking for free Wi-Fi don't work. Foursquare also comes in handy for finding free Wi-Fi passwords anywhere else .

Apigee is looking for a few good SEs.

An SE is a Sales Engineer. At Apigee, this is a member of the sales team who’s very technically adept, loves technology, and loves talking to other technologists about how to apply cool technology to solve hard problems.

This person needs to have a good developer background in server-side apps programming, with good C++, Java or C# skills, and probably one or more of Python, Ruby, PHP and NodeJS. Of course should know APIs, REST, SOAP very well, and should be handy with JSON, XML, and the various tools around those. Ought to know who Roy Fielding is, why jQuery is named jQuery, should know what RFC 2616 is, must love clouds, big data. Experience with AWS, Azure, RackSpace, VMware or IBM Smartcloud is a big plus. Beyond all that, the person’s got to love dealing with smart people with different perspectives.

If you know someone who fits this bill, lives near one of the NFL cities in the USA (you know, New York, Boston, Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Denver, San Fran, Los Angeles, etc), and wants to work for an ambitious late stage startup, send em my way: @dpchiesa on twitter.

To check out a used car's history before you buy it, you can order an AutoCheck or CarFax report for $30 or $40 or use this hidden search technique to get a free report.

Reddit user oinkinstein revealed this tip for running the vehicle history report.

First, get the VIN for the car

Then search for dealer autocheck inurl:vin

Click on the first search result (right now it leads to an autoexact.com site, but this trick works with other sites as well)

Replace the VIN in the URL with your own. Note that if there's any other information after the VIN, such as an id=####, just replace the VIN and keep the other info intact.

Voilà! You'll get the AutoCheck report from Experian with the basic details of the car, along with any reported accidents, title issues, the last reported odometer reading, and the full history of the car. Good to know when you're used car shopping.

OS X: As much as we love the command line, because it can do so much more so much faster in many cases, you can make a mistake pretty easily. If you do, just wipe out everything you typed in an instant with a simple keyboard shortcut: Control+U.

When you press those keys, the entire line goes away. It's a simple thing, but when you make an error it saves a lot of time. If it didn't exist, you'd have to sit and press the delete key until every individual character disappeared.

    <link>http://kk.org/cooltools/archives/12045</link>
    <dc:creator>earth2marsh</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[from Cool Tools http://kk.org/cooltools

I’m tempted to say that this tool is a life changer, but I’m prone to exaggeration, so I’ll just say it’s a game changer. The game being that by mid-day I’m usually rolling with my writing or book layout and don’t like to take the time to make a decent lunch.

Enter the Blendtec and “green smoothies.” I combine greens plus fresh or frozen fruit, vitamins, protein powder, almonds, hemp seeds and whatever else I see around, turn on the Blendtec and have a delicious drink while working. I do it 2-3 times a week.

I’m getting fresh-from-garden raw greens — parsley (which is fragrant in drink), kale, chard, or lettuce, whatever looks good, plus fruit, protein, carbos, vitamins. There are tons of recipes for green smoothies. I use Gold Standard vanilla whey protein — good flavor, high protein (something like 55 grams in 2 scoops).

This is a big powerful machine and it can be used for any number of things. It’s nothing like the blenders most of us are familiar with. In addition to smoothies, you can chop, juice, grind grain, and make soup or ice cream.

I got it for $400 from Amazon. Expensive, but high quality, highly useful, long lasting.

Here’s a comparison between the Blendtec and the other super blender, the VitaMix. You can also do a search for “Blendtec vs. VitaMix” in Google for more comparisons.

    <title>TSA Questions Chewbacca's Lightsaber - Lowering the Bar</title>
    <dc:date>2013-06-10T21:27:42+00:00</dc:date>
    <link>http://www.loweringthebar.net/2013/06/tsa-questions-chewbaccas-lightsaber.html</link>
    <dc:creator>earth2marsh</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[from Lowering the Bar http://www.loweringthebar.net/

Peter Mayhew, the actor who played Chewbacca, is almost 7' 3" tall, and because of his size (and possibly his age) he has some trouble getting around. He walks with a cane (it's designed to look like a "lightsaber") and when he travels, for example to make appearances at conventions and charity events, he needs a wheelchair to get around the airport. None of this stops him, but there is one force in the universe that can delay him: the TSA.

Last week, Mayhew—who is on Twitter at @TheWookieRoars—tweeted this picture of himself at a checkpoint at Denver International Airport waiting while two members of the elite legion that guards America from disaster stand around waiting for a better trained supervisor to come over and help them examine a cane.

Or did they think it was a dangerous lightsaber? Here's the deal, guys—it's either a cane, or a FICTIONAL WEAPON. Wait—possible third option: it potentially could have been a cane with an old-school metal sword hidden inside it, in which case maybe the guy in the WHEELCHAIR would try to hack his way through the cockpit door with it. Was that the theory? Please.

The TSA claimed later that it was the "unusual weight" of the cane that required supervisor intervention. As Mayhew also tweeted, "Giant man need giant cane" was the fairly obvious explanation for that one.

If these guys wanted a picture of themselves with Chewbacca and his lightsaber that they could put up on the wall and admire when they go home to their moms' basements, I'm sure all they had to do is ask.

From a table of membership in different groups we have gotten a picture of a kind of social network between individuals, a sense of the degree of connection between organizations, and some strong hints of who the key players are in this world. And all this—all of it!—from the merest sliver of metadata about a single modality of relationship between people. I do not wish to overstep the remit of my memorandum but I must ask you to imagine what might be possible if we were but able to collect information on very many more people, and also synthesize information from different kinds of ties between people! For the simple methods I have described are quite generalizable in these ways, and their capability only becomes more apparent as the size and scope of the information they are given increases. We would not need to know what was being whispered between individuals, only that they were connected in various ways. The analytical engine would do the rest! I daresay the shape of the real structure of social relations would emerge from our calculations gradually, first in outline only, but eventually with ever-increasing clarity and, at last, in beautiful detail—like a great, silent ship coming out of the gray New England fog. I admit that, in addition to the possibilities for finding something interesting, there may also be the prospect of discovering suggestive but ultimately incorrect or misleading patterns. But I feel this problem would surely be greatly ameliorated by more and better metadata. At the present time, alas, the technology required to automatically collect the required information is beyond our capacity. But I say again, if a mere scribe such as I—one who knows nearly nothing—can use the very simplest of these methods to pick the name of a traitor like Paul Revere from those of two hundred and fifty four other men, using nothing but a list of memberships and a portable calculating engine, then just think what weapons we might wield in the defense of liberty one or two centuries from now."]]></description>

He replied by e-mail: “There are bulk taps in switches at ATT and Verizon making the need for as many national security letters unnecessary.” He continued: “Also, if national security letters are used, then they can not say they have ever received them. We got one of them; they are nasty because you can not talk about having received one.”" "anyone who did not suspect that the government would continue to use as much technology as it could to gather as much private information as it could—a rock-solid constant since the time of Hoover’s F.B.I., at least—has not been paying attention."]]></description>

I.B.M.’s Watson, the supercomputing technology that defeated human Jeopardy! champions in 2011, is a prime example of the power of data-intensive artificial intelligence.

Watson-style computing, analysts said, is precisely the technology that would make the ambitious data-collection program of the N.S.A. seem practical. Computers could instantly sift through the mass of Internet communications data, see patterns of suspicious online behavior and thus narrow the hunt for terrorists.

Both the N.S.A. and the Central Intelligence Agency have been testing Watson in the last two years, said a consultant who has advised the government and asked not to be identified because he was not authorized to speak.

There is more here, pointer is from Claudia Sahm.

The Sony MEX-BT3100P is a great car stereo for the smartphone owner. It has wireless audio streaming and hands-free calling for $130. A lot of stereos have that, but the Sony also has two-way connectivity with your smartphone. Most smartphones can send Bluetooth head units audio and track titles. But Sony’s App Remote lets you control the sources and other functions from your smartphone’s big screen.

OS X: We love Quicksilver, the great Mac app launcher that does so much more than launching . Thanks to a feature called Triggers, you can turn pretty much any action or script into a keyboard shortcut. That now includes switching AirPlay sources on the fly.

To toggle AirPlay sources with the press of a few keys, you'll need the following:

The Quicksilver App

The AirPlay for iTunes and AirPlay Menu scripts

Once you have all that, open up Quicksilver and hop into its preferences to create some triggers:

Click on the Triggers tab and click the + button on the bottom bar. Choose HotKey.

Choose one of the scripts as an item and type Run for the action (although it'll most likely fill itself in automatically).

Save the trigger and assign it a hotkey of your choosing.

Repeat this process for the other script. When you're done, you can toggle AirPlay sources with a hotkey and even make a script click a menu and choose the source when a video goes full screen and hides the options.

When people land on a story, they very rarely make it all the way down the page. A lot of people don’t even make it halfway. Even more dispiriting is the relationship between scrolling and sharing. Schwartz’s data suggest that lots of people are tweeting out links to articles they haven’t fully read. If you see someone recommending a story online, you shouldn’t assume that he has read the thing he’s sharing.

Android: Most phone recovery apps require you install the app before you lose the phone or it gets stolen. Android Lost, however, can be remotely installed and it comes with a slew of useful features beyond just locating your phone.

Android Lost is similar to previously mentioned Plan B , but Plan B only works for Android 2.0 to 2.3 and is dedicated to simply locating your missing phone. Android Lost, as the video above shows, not only locates by GPS (or network), but can also remotely wipe or lock your phone, take pictures, send message popups, get call lists, erase the SD card, record sound from the microphone, start an alarm, and much more—making it a great security app.

You can install the app from the Google Play site, and then send an SMS to register your device with the Android Lost website where you control the phone. If you have tablet without SMS, you can still remotely register the phone with the Jumpstart app.

Aviel Livay's story of how he used Android Lost to track his daughter's stolen phone showcases some of the best uses of the app and how useful it can be.

You can also use the app for non-recovery purposes—to disable the lockcode if you've forgotten it , for example, or remotely control your Android device from afar.

We've shown you the wonders of Markdown as great for your to-do lists and notes. If you love Markdown too but you're stuck with a bunch of Google docs that aren't in the format (but need to be), this Google Apps Script converts them instantly.

The script, available at GitHub by Renato Mangini, is easy to use, works like a charm, and you can save it in Google Drive so you can use it over and over, anytime you need to convert a document to Markdown. You can grab it at the link below, but here's how to "install" it in Google Documents:

Open Google Drive in a browser and open any document.

Click the Tools menu, then select Script Editor.

Click Close on the pop-up tutorial window, and delete the starter text.

Open Renato's script in another tab, and copy the contents. Paste them into the script editor.

Click File and Save to save the script. Give it a name, like "ConvertToMarkdown."

Now your script is saved, and you can run it anytime you like. To run it against a Google Document, just open that document, click Tools, then select "Script Manager." You'll see your script in the list. Select it, and then click "Run."

That's all there is to it. The script is especially useful if you're looking to export Google Documents in a format that can easily be imported somewhere else (like GitHub, for example) or converted into another format (like HTML) later. Hit the link below to grab the script yourself, and read more about which formats it's able to interpret and convert. gdocs2md | GitHub via Hacker News

the cybercriminals found an error in the Android operating system which relates to the processing of the AndroidManifest.xml file. This file exists in every Android application and is used to describe the application’s structure, define its launch parameters, etc. The malware modifies AndroidManifest.xml in such a way that it does not comply with Google standards, but is still correctly processed on a smartphone thanks to the exploitation of the identified vulnerability. All of this made it extremely difficult to run dynamic analysis on this Trojan.

The creators of Backdoor.AndroidOS.Obad.a also used yet another previously unknown error in the Android operating system. By exploiting this vulnerability, malicious applications can enjoy extended Device Administrator privileges without appearing on the list of applications which have such privileges. As a result of this, it is impossible to delete the malicious program from the smartphone after it gains extended privileges.

And with that the fun is only just beginning. This is reckoned to be one of the worst pieces of Android malware yet identified.]]></description>

In March we announced that CalDAV, an open standard for accessing calendar data across the web, would become a partner-only API because it appeared that almost all the API usage was driven by a few large developers. Since that announcement, we received many requests for access to CalDAV, giving us a better understanding of developers' use cases and causing us to revisit that decision. In response to those requests, we are keeping the CalDAV API public. And in the spirit of openness, today we're also making CardDAV - an open standard for accessing contact information across the web - available to everyone for the first time.

Can we have a Google Reader reprieve too?]]></description>

A single corrupted bit infected the S3 gossip network, taking down the whole S3 service in (iirc) one region:

We've now determined that message corruption was the cause of the server-to-server communication problems. More specifically, we found that there were a handful of messages on Sunday morning that had a single bit corrupted such that the message was still intelligible, but the system state information was incorrect. We use MD5 checksums throughout the system, for example, to prevent, detect, and recover from corruption that can occur during receipt, storage, and retrieval of customers' objects. However, we didn't have the same protection in place to detect whether [gossip state] had been corrupted. As a result, when the corruption occurred, we didn't detect it and it spread throughout the system causing the symptoms described above. We hadn't encountered server-to-server communication issues of this scale before and, as a result, it took some time during the event to diagnose and recover from it. During our post-mortem analysis we've spent quite a bit of time evaluating what happened, how quickly we were able to respond and recover, and what we could do to prevent other unusual circumstances like this from having system-wide impacts. Here are the actions that we're taking: (a) we've deployed several changes to Amazon S3 that significantly reduce the amount of time required to completely restore system-wide state and restart customer request processing; (b) we've deployed a change to how Amazon S3 gossips about failed servers that reduces the amount of gossip and helps prevent the behavior we experienced on Sunday; (c) we've added additional monitoring and alarming of gossip rates and failures; and, (d) we're adding checksums to proactively detect corruption of system state messages so we can log any such messages and then reject them.

This is why you checksum all the things ;)]]></description>

 Until now, the only way to run a Plex media server to your Apple TV was to jailbreak it. However, a clever workaround called PlexConnect gives you complete access to your Plex media server, no jailbreak required.

The hack uses Apple's movie trailers app to route traffic from your Plex server to the Apple TV. Basically, you run a program on your computer that pretends to be the trailers app, change a couple settings on your Apple TV, and then you're up and running in about two minutes. You'll need to know your way around Terminal a little, but the install guide makes it pretty easy for everyone to do. Once it's working, you'll be able to use Plex on your Apple TV just like you would any other device, no jailbreak required.

    <dc:creator>earth2marsh</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[from Marginal Revolution http://marginalrevolution.com

In November of last year I wrote:

Overall, I am for betting because I am against bullshit. Bullshit is polluting our discourse and drowning the facts. A bet costs the bullshitter more than the non-bullshitter so the willingness to bet signals honest belief. A bet is a tax on bullshit; and it is a just tax, tribute paid by the bullshitters to those with genuine knowledge.

A recent paper provides evidence. It’s well known that Democrats and Republicans give different answers to even basic factual questions when those questions are politically loaded (Did inflation fall under Reagan? Were WMDs found in Iraq? and so forth). But do the respondents really believe their answers or are they simply signalling their affiliations? In other words, are respondents bullshitting? In a new paper, Bullock, Gerber, Huber and Hill provide evidence that the respondents don’t actually believe what they say and the authors do so by making partisans pay for their beliefs. Dylan Matthews at Wonkblog has a good writeup:

They ran two experiments. In the first, they split respondents into two groups: Those in the control group were asked basic factual questions about politics; those in the treatment group were asked the same questions but were entered into a raffle for an Amazon gift card wherein their chances depended on how many questions they got right.

In the control group, the authors find what Bartels, Nyhan and Reifler found: There are big partisan gaps in the accuracy of responses.

…But when there was money on the line, the size of the gaps shrank by 55 percent. The researchers ran another experiment, in which they increased the odds of winning for those who answered the questions correctly but also offered a smaller reward to those who answered “don’t know” rather than answering falsely. The partisan gaps narrowed by 80 percent.

The paper also has implications for democracy. Voting is just another survey without individual consequence so voting encourages expressions of rational irrationality and it’s no surprise why democracies choose bad policies.

When I was editor of Craft magazine, I always looked forward to Wendy Jehanara Tremayne’s next “Re-Fitted” column, which profiled a waste-conscious maker and included a how-to project by that person. A few of the projects included making textiles out of plastic bags, turning used clothing into a quilt, and building a beautiful outdoor fence with found branches and tie wire. Even more inspiring than her articles, however, were our phone conversations between magazine issues. After chatting about her next article idea, she’d briefly enchant me with her snippets of how she and her husband, Mikey, left their high-powered jobs in New York and moved to Truth or Consequences, NM, to live as waste-free and off the grid as possible. Always in a rush, I would hang up and then wish I had gotten more details.

Six years later, I was finally able to read about Tremayne’s “decommodified life” in her fresh-off-the-press book, The Good Life Lab: Radical Experiments in Hands-On Living. Captivating right from the start, Tremayne’s tale of quitting her job as creative director of a marketing firm to “live in the waste stream” describes her bumps and triumphs in turning an RV park into their homestead and living a rich life spending almost no money. Both from the city, she and her husband learn as they go, using found and tossed materials to build structures on their property, driving a car that runs on vegetable oil, growing their own food, concocting homemade tinctures from local plants, and landscaping with homemade compost and free dung from a local camel named Stanley.

Tremayne weaves her narrative with colorful charts, beautiful illustrations by different artists, and loads of how-to projects (DIY biofuel, roasting coffee with a popcorn maker, building a decorative fire barrel, making mead, and constructing a sturdy and handsome papercrete dome, just to name a few). Whether for inspiration or as a road map to creating your own off-the-grid homestead, Tremayne’s book is a must read for any maker who fantasizes about stepping off the consumer-centered treadmill and into a life that is connected to nature, unhurried and meaningful.

Fans of Apple and Google have been arguing lately about which company is winning mobile. Apple has more profits, but Android has more users. But what really matters is when and if developers switch over to developing for Android first, or even Android only. For now, iOS users tend to monetize much better than Android users, more than making up for the smaller user base. The switch to Android first hasn’t happened yet, but at least based on conversations I’ve had with entrepreneurs, it seems likely to happen in the next year or two.

- Mobile has had a big effect on b2b software. People want to use their personal iOS/Android devices at work, and many people now have computers with them all the time who didn’t before. This has created opportunities for 1) traditional b2b software that is mobile friendly, 2) companies that support mobile devices for businesses (e.g. mobile security, compliance etc), 3) brand new categories of software for users who previously used pencil and paper for various business tasks.

As is pointed out in the comments, if you're an app developer in India, you're already going to be Android-only. Part of the problem about (the extremely tedious) "winning" arguments is that they don't take account of regional variation.]]></description>

    <title>FooTab Speeds Up Chrome's Start Time By Only Loading One Tab</title>

If you've ever quit Chrome with a few dozen tabs open, you know the pain that ensues the next time you open it. Instead of watching your browser churn to reload all of those tabs, load them on demand with FooTab.

The FooTab extension isn't currently available on the Chrome Web Store, but you can install it by hand by downloading the .crx file from SourceForge and dragging it onto your extensions list in Chrome's settings. Once installed, FooTab will prevent all but your currently-selected tab from loading in the background for ten seconds after launching , allowing Chrome to focus its resources on starting up and loading your primary tab. After ten seconds, tabs will start downloading data in the background, but if you switch to one before it's done, it will load up immediately.

The idea is similar to The Great Suspender , but its focus is specifically on startup performance, so FooTab might be a better option if you don't want tabs suspending in the background while you're still using Chrome.

FooTab (Free) | SourceForge via gHacks

To the common passerby, it's nothing more than an office park surrounded by perfectly manicured lawns. But to those who are in on the secret, there's a place full of technology treasures waiting to be unearthed. It's called the Weird Stuff Warehouse, and for more than 27 years it's been providing the Bay Area with a surplus of old and new technology. It's not just a Goodwill for antiquated hardware, though—it's also a step back through time. Inside this warehouse, it's an era when RAID controllers were the size of a modern-day sound card and Windows 95 reigned supreme.]]></description>
