According to Michael’s post, Priceline offers a rainy vacation guarantee as a new promotion. It sounds clever, right?

Finally installed FireFox 3

Posted May 26th, 2008 by Gorkem Turgut OZER

I have installed FireFox 3 finally and everything seems fine for now. Of course there is an exception of add-ons. Only one third of my extensions are active because of incompatibility. Faster surfing with a really better performance and without any crashes, for now.

Firefox 3 is coming in a month, hopefully

Posted May 18th, 2008 by Gorkem Turgut OZER

According to Mashable, since Firefox Release Candidate has been released yesterday, official debut will be in time which is in June. A few weeks later, most of us (Firefox users) will start using it and a part of us (including me) will wait for more extensions to be compatible with it. I hope everything will [...]

Seth, I have updated your Passion/Pop Curve

Posted May 8th, 2008 by Gorkem Turgut OZER

This Passion/Pop Curve was come into question by Seth Godin a few days ago. It was a very clear representation of a marketing truth of today. Seth defined the curve as: “Here’s a new curve for you: I’m calling it the passion/pop curve. That bell curve to the left represents acceptance by the focused/excited/taste making [...]

Yes I am, Stan. Me too. Deeply frustrated with Firefox.

Posted May 4th, 2008 by Gorkem Turgut OZER

Mashable author Stan Schroeder wrote about Firefox, the software which is right now absorbing 40% of my CPU performance and using 1 GB of total 2 GB of RAM. This is not just another software we are using, this is the “thing” that we are using most of the time when we are using our [...]

iPhone Safari doesn’t remember passwords, yep I know

Posted April 18th, 2008 by Gorkem Turgut OZER

I first realized the awful fact when I tried to access my Google Reader. After closing Safari, and opening back again for newly coming feeds, Safari asked me for the username and password again. I have checked the “remember” option once again, but the same thing happened once more. It was totally an intolerable situation [...]

Before semantic search…

Posted April 6th, 2008 by Gorkem Turgut OZER

…at least there should be elegant offers like all around the web, shouldn’t be?.. P.S.: It knows (by a cookie of course) that I have seen “Ankara, TU” page before, however, it doesn’t come up with that page or that page in a portion of the main page or with a pop-up (these and more [...]

A Shot on Semantic Web

Posted February 9th, 2008 by Gorkem Turgut OZER

Web 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and counting.. There is a strong competition on naming the future of the web. However, the content should be more important than this, what I mean is “experience.” For instance; when I am typing this little shot on semantic web, on the top-right of my screen, my browser should show me [...]

What is User Experience?

Posted February 2nd, 2008 by Gorkem Turgut OZER

A user’s experience of a web site is strictly related to knowing your visitor’s needs. Your visitor can’t talk, you can’t just listen to him/her and you can’t simply go ahead with this information. You have to know how your visitor feel, how s/he behaves. Your visitor is like your baby, s/he can’t talk, s/he [...]
