If Batman and James Bond can do it, then so can I. Right now this blog is a mess of random crap I wanted my friends to see and developer stuff I wanted nerdy programmers to read. It lacks any kind of focus. I go from gay jokes to how to set up your development workflow with Subversion.

Now I hardly update anymore, and I mostly blame Twitter and Facebook. If I want geeks to see something, I post it on Twitter. If I want friends to see something, I post it on Facebook.

Sometimes they're just not enough. So instead this blog will be getting a reboot soon, and will actually become multiple blogs for me to ignore instead of just one.

Coming soon:

• codeslacker.com
  This will be geeky crap such as PHP development tips, CodeIgniter tutorials, and anything else that seems
  too geeky for my "normal" friends to understand.
• danprevite.com
  This will mostly be a portfolio site, but will have links to the more interesting posts on codeslacker.com
• dprevite.com
  This will be my blog about nothing, like this one was mostly.

For now this is my only blog. I'll post again when they changes are complete.

I also have some interesting projects that I'm working on. I'll post more information here when they're somewhat presentable.

So, these are pretty good (other than the fact that they're kinda pro rails douche bags in their other videos). Not great, but ok. They kind of remind me of bad training videos. If you even kinda chuckle at these, you're a complete dork. (like me)

So like the little web geek that I am, I downloaded Google Chrome the second it was available. I haven't been playing with it too long, but I am impressed so far.

The first thing I looked at was JavaScript performance. I used this site which runs some common JavaScript tasks over and over.

The results:

Internet Explorer 8 (Beta 2)

FireFox 3

Chrome

So as you can see, Google Chrome is a lot faster than the other browsers I tested, at least as far as JavaScript performance. It's probably because there are no plug-ins or anything on top of Chrome, but it sure feels a whole lot faster. It's really smooth and doesn't have that frozen window problem that FireFox and IE both have.

So far I'm pretty excited about Chrome. I love FireFox, but Chrome implements some amazing ideas. Let's hope they catch on with the other browsers.

This is a pretty crappy video, but the show was amazing. Definitely worth flying in for.

Some pictures from the show.
