Has anyone encountered FireFox freezing up when accessing Gmail? It seemed to happen quite often for me, and I realized the common site being accessed was always Gmail. Too much Ajax happening in the background?

Perhaps this will force me to upgrade from FireFox 2.0.0.16 to the new spunky FireFox 3?

If this is happening to you, a suggestion by a certain amanda on troublefixers.com was to clear the browser cache by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Del. I’m not sure when you do this - AFTER it freezes once, then restarting FireFox, or to just do it periodically?

Man, what a busy time it has been… So much work, too little time, clients chasing us all the time (oh, hello darling clients!)

I started out The Backpackr project to see how far it would get and it’s been great fun. We fell a little short on unique visitors hitting our site, but made up for it in video views on YouTube. I’ll reveal our stats next week.

For now, I’m off for a cruise with my wife Grace (who runs Integricity Visuals and Wedding Story together with her business partners). It’s actually a work assignment from a client of hers who is coming up with a movie, and needs certain elements of the ship captured in photos and videos - so that it can be used in digital 3D recreations… amazing, huh? And of COURSE Grace can’t do the assignment alone, so she needs an adept assistant who will also share a cabin with her for cost saving reasons!

Woohooo, so Superstar Gemini, here I come… It’s not a long trip though… 3 days and 2 nights, SNORT! Let’s see… we leave on Saturday at 2pm, spend a night out at sea while heading down to Singapore, have a full Sunday on board, then disembark at 9am on Monday! WHERE’S MY 24 x 3 HOURS? It’s only 43 hours on board, not even a full TWO DAYS. Someone from the marketing team should learn how to count the hours.

Anyhow, it’s gonna be exciting, and here are two videos I found on YouTube that show what the Superstar Gemini is all about. Quality is a little crap, be warned…

Alright, I’ve got to go pack in our 2 camera bodies, flash lights, Panasonic AG-HVX202 HD video camera, notebooks, data storage drives, etc… oh yes, some clothes too, I guess…

This is called a “Gipsy” show - doubt it’ll be playing when we’re on board, but looks fairly cool.

Okay, we’re not going on the Superstar Virgo, but here’s their promo video. I hope we’ll get something like that!
