Porn Mode
« on: September 02, 2008, 11:26:16 pm »
Lo and behold, Google go one step further to world domination with their new browser. Have a link.

It's nothing too out of the ordinary, basically very Google, clean, basic functionality. Very beta, still.

BUT. I was intrigued by the 'open incognito tab' option (ctrl+shift+n). Turns out it's a window which stores absolutely no information of what you do in that window. No history, no cookies, nothing. And my testosterone blighted brain almost instantly saw the ramifications of this. PORN MODE.

Enjoy.

I would like something like this for Firefox. I searched the add-ons, but there's only one that says it does anything like Incognito, and it's apparently broken in FF3.

Dammit, I don't want to switch browsers.

I was talking to my roommate recently, and I realized how truly bizarre the way I discovered porn was.

it definitely, DEFINITELY started with me wanting to have dirty jokes to tell my friends. then, having questions about sex and looking them up without any wikipedia to answer me, in those days. Ending up finding such as sex advice sites. eventually, porn.

I think I still do way more... actual research about these things than other people my age, or perhaps most people in general. I always gross my friends out by being all "oh, you mean axillary intercourse?"

I don't think the rabid Firefox users will be willing to change. Instead of having a "porn mode", Chrome might as well become the "porn browser"...

I just downloaded it and... it looks nice, actually (unreasonably fast, also).

I had to look this up, and I'm not sure I believe it exists.

I've been trying out Chrome and I quite like it. I might switch to it fully once the Linux version is ready. It's the little things that always get me with browsers, like the status bar which just appears as a little panel when it has something useful to display and slides out of the way if you put your penis over it.

More close to the topic, the best things about Incognito mode are clearly the little spy icon and the fact that it advises you to be wary of "People standing behind you".

Dang, A-Cap brings the HEAT.

I'm checking it out.  It's slick.  I think I'll be trying it out for a few days, and then returning to Firefox.  But I think Google expects people to do that.  They don't actually want to have their own browser.  They just want browsers to be faster, less crashy, and more secure.  They have definite ideas about how to do that, and they wanted to release a proof of concept. 

In the little comic they released, they basically came out and said, "We made our browser open source so other browsers would steal our ideas.  If IE and Firefox would do things this way (i.e. 1 operating system process per tab, etc.), we could write mega-complex apps that make Google Maps look like a baby's toy.  If we tried that today, we'd slow browsers to a crawl.  So everybody make your browsers more like this one so we can make cooler gadgets for them."
