Phoenix 0.1 Released

Phoenix is a redesign of the Mozilla browser component, similar to Galeon, K-Meleon and Chimera, but written using the XUL user interface language and designed to be cross-platform. A faster Mozilla (not that it needs to be any faster) but still a 8MB download.

Diana Krall

Just got back from a great Jazz concert. I knew how good Diana Krall was in record but a live performance is something different. Diana talked a lot with the audience during the show, she even said some jokes and the audience could see they were having fun. The band supporting her (guitar, bass and drums) showed to be great and she plays the piano wonderfully.

When a mobile phone rang in the audience:
Diana: Tell him I'll call him later. Damn George Clooney, i've told him not to phone me at work.

Diana Krall

I'm looking forward for Diana Krall's performance at the Coliseu do Porto tonight. This is the third time I try to see her live. The other times I tried to buy the ticket only 2 months before the show so they were all sold out. But this time I bought them 5 months before. *grim*
