I don’t know what is up, but Entrecard has not been displaying correctly since it was shut down for the update a few days back. I should correct that statement by saying it’s not displaying in Firefox (see below). The fact of the matter is; I prefer to use Firefox when I’m dropping ECs and have not had to move to using Safari. It’s not a HUGE deal, but I thought it was just my computer being silly (but we all know Macs aren’t silly). I checked at work on three different computers and it’s the same. Mind you this is every EntreCard, not just on my computer. So I ask my fellow bloggers…have you seen this?

If you are experiencing this same problem, can it be fixed? What about EntreCard have they said anything regarding this? If any of you have seen the same thing let me know…I’m stumped.

I wanted to write a weekly review of topics covered on the site and make it a regular thing on grandmasterb.com. Since I just launched the site on March 20th; I figured Mondays would be as good a day as any to do the review post. So from here on out I will post “The Week in Review” every Monday.I wanted to also say “Thank You!” to all of you that have taken the time to stop by the site this past week, commented and subscribed to the feed. I have received a lot of great feedback from fellow bloggers and friends regarding the site design and content. One thing that I would like to encourage my readers to do is comment on the articles I’m writing. I would love to receive feedback and hear your opinions of the site; if you have an idea for a post or something you’d like to see in the future let me know.

I’m back for the conclusion of my post from yesterday (My Web Development Tools). Part two will focus mainly on my browser of choice…FIREFOX! I know that Firefox is probably not new to most of my readers, but I have installed a great set of add-ons that will make any web developers life easier. By the way don’t forget that Firefox Version 3 is now available in Beta4. If you’d like to check it out it can be found here.

Tool Number Four: Firefox 2

I LOVE FIREFOX! There, now that that’s out of the way I can concentrate on giving you details as to why I use Firefox to develop sites. I use Firefox for two main reasons. I code every site and test as I go with Firefox. The main reason is that the fine folks at Microsoft have discontinued Internet Explorer for Mac; which quite honestly is fine with me. I do have a standby Windows machine dedicated to testing once I am sure everything looks fine in Firefox. The other reason I prefer to do all of my work with Firefox is the great add-ons that you can download from the mozilla site. That’s the beauty of using an open source browser; the community of developers come up with some of the coolest add-ons to make your internet experience more enjoyable.My favorite add-on for Firefox is the Web Developer Toolbar by Chris Pederick.
