Any Way I can Get Notified on "Interesting Calendars" Events?I am currently subscribed to a calendar called "US Holidays" which I accessed via the "Interesting Calendars" menu in Google Calendar. Is there any way I can get email notifications from it? Thanks in advanced!-

Viewer asked a question in Gawker Media Tech on October 17, 2009 01:23:
How can I find all the replies made to me?I use Tawker and am aware that Gawker is working on implementing features in this area, but in the meantime is there anyway I can perform a search to find all the comments made as a response to my own?
I've tried using Google, but it ignores the @ symbol when I try to search for my username. This causes it to yield endless, useless results. -

Same here. Any one got a work-around for this functionality in the meantime? -

How about removing cluster names? I seem to have reached a limitation where I can't make such a change here: http://www.clusterurl.com/615wb3u, presumably because I've visited the page 3 times. -

Is There any Way for Firefox to "Jump to Selection" (a la Safari)?Hi all. As many of you may know, pressing command-j in Safari (as well as other native Mac Apps) will bring whatever you've selected from a web page into visibility.
Is there any way that Firefox can do this? Is there an extension out there that can provide this functionality?
Thanks in advanced! -

When the Google Keyboard Shortcuts Search Experiment (http://www.google.com/experimental/) and Xmarks' Smarter Search feature are enabled, neither are displayed properly.

Choppy Flash Videos in Firefox Made Even Choppier by Firefox's Session-Saving Feature(Flash 10,0,32,18, Firefox 3.5.3, Mac OS 10.4.11, 2.0 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook w/ 2GB Ram and no dedicated GPU)
For a long time now, I've been dealing with horrendously poor performance in Flash videos running inside Firefox. Youtube (and competitor's) videos stutter frequently even at the lowest quality settings. My only option has been to use Lightbrowser (http://www.xiotios.com/lightbrowser.html), which runs Flash quite smoothly even when Firefox is running simultaneously.
While it seems clear to me that most of this is Adobe's fault (https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP...), I remain baffled that Firefox has been much more affected by this than any Webkit-based browsers such as Safari or Lightbrowser.
Part of the solution comes from this article: http://lifehacker.com/5342636/how-to-.... Apparently, Firefox's session-saving feature is causing some of the choppiness that I have been experiencing in Youtube and other Flash-based video sites. As a result, I am now using Tab Mix Plus's (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire...) session manager, which has improved the situation for me somewhat.
After applying the information from the Lifehacker article as discussed above, Flash video in Firefox remains choppy but it's now somewhat usable. I can usually get the information I need out of a video, but I can't rely on it for watching anything with a lot of action. For this, I still need Lightbrowser. Running Firefox in Safe Mode or dropping Add-ons could further help the situation, but I'd be neglecting the main reason why I have chosen Firefox as my default web browser in the first place.
From my understanding, future versions of Firefox are expected to have significant performance improvements. With that in mind, does Mozilla intend to address any of these issues so that Firefox can better compensate for Adobe's inadequacies on my system? -
A comment on the question "Can greasemonkey script autoupdate?" in PostRank:
Thanks! I noticed that the AideRSS site says the latest version is 2.7.2, but in the userscripts.org site the description says it's version 2.7.0. Even after installing via the AideRSS site, mine also says it's 2.7.0. Are we all still talking about the same version? Your responsiveness is greatly appreciated. – Viewer, on September 20, 2009 01:47 -
Viewer asked a question in Spotify on September 19, 2009 18:36:
How Does Spotify Compare to My Current Music Library in Terms of Sound Quality?Hello. I'm a potential Spotify user (from the US) who was thrilled to learn that this service uses the Ogg Vorbis codec. I have a few questions: What is the sound quality of Spotify's 160 kb Ogg Vorbis format in comparison to the 192 kb mp3's that I'm used to listening to? Is it slightly better or worse? Would I have to be an audiophile to hear a difference? Is there any sound test out there online that I can use to determine this for myself? Thanks in advanced. Can't wait for you guys to show up here in the States! -

Is there any chance of you adding an entry for your script at userscripts.org? Adding a script as a favorite on that site enables email updates. It would also help build awareness of AideRSS as a whole. – Viewer, on September 19, 2009 14:44 -

A comment on the problem "Flash video performance poor in Firefox 3 and other newer Gecko-based browsers; fails to detect mouse movement in full-screen" in Adobe:
Stuttering happens much more frequently than once every 10 seconds for me. I'm sure that would help if I didn't have all these extensions, but what baffles me is that another browser could still play Flash w/ better performance while Firefox is still running. Thanks for bringing that one up, though. – Viewer, on September 02, 2009 00:53
