out on my feet

Is it me, or does it seem like every December I pull up my stakes and disappear until January? It seems as though every year December marks the beginning of a kind of fugue state where I'm operating primarily for work or school, and everything else kind of just falls by the wayside. There's little time for extraneous thought and diversion.

Anyway, after seeing all this ads in recent comics for the "Spider-Man ISP", I decided to check out the browser. It's a skin that operates using a browser called Phaseout -- another freeware, open source browser like Mozilla, only this time operating in a Flash environment. It's pretty neat, actually, with some increased functionality over Mozilla, although ease-of-use the first time isn't exactly 100%. It's fairly small as well, although it looks like it uses up more system resources than any of the Mozilla-based browsers. You can check it out yourself here.
