This site will shutdown tomorrow 17.01.12

This site, patchou.com, along with the 16 other web sites I’m hosting on the same server will shutdown for a day, on Wednesday 18th, January 2012. Downloads will be down as well. This is done as an effort against SOPA, PIPA and any other future similar US bills that threatens our cyber-way-of-life. Wikipedia, Reddit, Minecraft and many other big names are doing the same. If you have a presence on the web, we encourage you to join the blackout.

Transfer from GoDaddy 27.12.11

Following the recent stand from GoDaddy on the trash that is SOPA, I have decided, like many others, to transfer all my domain names to a registrar that won’t work against my interests. If you currently have domain names with GoDaddy and are against censorshop on the internet, I recommend you do the same.

If you don’t know what SOPA is and you don’t feel like spending more than 3 minutes on the subject, watch this video.

Is Google Chrome the new IE6? 05.12.11

Here’s an interesting article I found on Neowin today:

Chrome can do things that no other browser can do, and Google now targets Chrome exclusively, meaning some Google sites only function fully when viewed in Chrome. Even today, you can read on the Google blog about some new Angry Birds levels that only work in Chrome. This is disturbing, when you consider that Google has made a lot of hay about the openness of the Web.
