A few minutes after posting the link to my post about Lexis Nexis Porn #fail a lady, Sarah, contacted me on Twitter to say that she works at Lexis Nexis and she has just contacted the person that will sort out the porn content on their website.
Hopefully that person will also put up an easier way for people to get in contact with the webmaster in the future.
I’m very impressed with how quickly someone picked up on the post and responded to sort out the problem. I suppose that is the power of the Internet and Social Networking.

I read about http://floss.pro/ a while back, but I think it was at the really early stages and for some reason I never joined. It’s like Twitter but for geeks. Not just Twitter Geeks, REAL Geeks
Find me on http://floss.pro/chrismeistre
I also went ahead and download the FlossFoxPro plugin for floss.pro so that right next to my Twitter updates, I also have my floss.pro updates

I’ve always loved Firefox, and will happily continue using it for a long long time to come. A couple of weeks ago I downloaded the latest version, 3.5 which was still in beta, and have been very impressed with the noticeable speed increase.
You can also download it from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/firefox.html
The main reason for this performance increase seems to be the new TraceMonkey Javascript engine it’s making use of. There’s a whole lot more than you can read about on http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/performance/
Another cool thing to checkout are the live download statistics from http://downloadstats.mozilla.com/. It was released a couple of hours ago, so it’s interesting and exciting to watch how many people are downloading it to try it out.
