Sometimes, firefox doesn’t work the way I expect it. That doesn’t mean it is broken, it is just different. Usually its a “better” kind of different, and sometimes not. This is a case of somewhat not.
Using Cascading Style Sheets to define the way a page looks is not only awesome, but simply [...]

I love Google docs. It brings me joy to no end. Though I have longed for folders and a way to organize documents, I have discovered how to use tags to organize it all. Google, thank you.
