I currently do Search Passwords, Search website, Copy password, Paste in Firefox manually.

I was talking to someone about tech culture in Germany earlier. How easy is it to get a tech job out there?
Google could simply block services like Gmail and YouTube. Microsoft tried it with Windows Phone.

Re:Linux: The Source of All Desktop Innovation on Thursday May 26, 2011 @04:26AM (#2587039)
Nothing is innovating. Windows, Mac and Linux are just adding colours to Panel, Dock and Taskbar. Thats it!
I got one from a sweepstake thing last month. I use for like an hour after I wake up every dat. Its wonderful and amazing but sooner or later you will realize you need Windows.
They should have gave to those who were selected despite of non-random. Cmon they must be freaking depressed now!
