Firefox + Snap Links = Quicker EC Drops

I always use Firefox for my internet browsing, one of the reasons being that there are so many add ons available to surf and work the way I want to. I was using an add on called “Linky”, which let me select multiple links and open them simutanously with multiple tabs. However, Linky was only working part of the time since it isn’t totally compatible with my version of Firefox.

Today I came across another add on called Snap Links which works much the same way, so I thought I’d pass on some information about how to use it, as it may help other EC’ers with their drops.

First, I’m using Firefox 2.0.0.16; I haven’t upgraded to the latest version since many other add ons I use are not yet compatible. You can easily go to the Snap Links page to download and install it.

Because of the way Snap Links uses the mouse to highlight links, I can’t provide a true screenshot of the process, but hopefully this gets the point across. It really is simple to use. After installing it, you can configure how it works with your mouse.

After installing Snap Links, go to your Entrecard inbox.

Using your mouse button ( default is the right button ), draw/drag a line ( green is default ) around a few of the banners in your inbox.

Hold your Shift key and release the mouse button. When releasing the mouse button, Firefox will open the blogs for your selected banners in new tabs.

Now, you can simply select a tab, drop on the EC banner, close the tab and go to the next one.

Kellie Pickler

IMG_6956 So last night I decided to go out to the local county fair with a couple of family members. Mostly planned on staying just a few hours because of the weather and being tired, but we figured we’d stick around long enough to catch some of the show by Kellie Pickler.

I’d seen her on American Idol, of course, and a… Continue reading

The loss of consideration

There are times when people really piss me off. Not that I’m perfect, a model person, or anything like that, but one thing I pride myself on is that I try to see how my actions will affect others before I do things. I’m not into the “Political Correctness” crap, but I simply try to have basic consideration for people around me. Continue reading

Desmond Child honored …. and why music lovers should care.

There aren’t too many people that can boast about a musical career the way Desmond Child can. If you had his background, you’d be quite happy, too. How about 70 top 40 songs for a start? Continue reading

Hot chicks = something else.

I guess that marketing is, sometimes, more appearance than anything. Getting people in the door is what counts, and if you need more than just a sign that says “Enter” to get customers, then sex is the best thing to go with. Continue reading
