Post Blogger Expression Updates

The Internet has done so many things to improve our lives. We can find that album we used to listen to incessantly when we were moved into our first flat. We can stay in touch with people we haven't seen in years. We find out info about anything at the stroke of a key. Wonderful. Magnificent. But what does the Internet do for us in the afterlife? Up to now, probably not alot. However, now for the princely sum of €29 a year, you can annoy the fuck out of all your friends and family long after you've passed off this mortal coil. Or at least, I think that's what it's for. That might just be me though.

Blogger have announced a beta update. The update is by invite only and seems to have the knock on affect of telling all the rest of us we can go fuck ourselves until the update goes into full release. I could be wrong about that - they might have been telling us to go fuck ourselves for ages. They don't seem that interested in informing their users of developments.

Could someone tell me why my Firefox has decided to check for a software update every time I open a new window. It's just a little unneccesary.
