The tale of the fired

The recipients of the pink slip now have a site of their own- simplyfired.com featuring stories of those who have been laid off. The most prominent being the the Mark Jen Story, the fired Google employee of ninety nine zeroes fame.

The site is also running the Simply Fired Contest where the the story of your being fired or laid off could fetch you prizes such as a week-long trip to the Caribbean, an Apple iPod Shuffle, or a SimplyFired t-shirt.

A must-visit-website for all. No one teaches you about how not to get fired from your job! Too lazy? Subscribe to the fired feed!

Firefox Extension for coComment!

I have put up the Firefox Extension for coComment! I and a few friends have been using it for a day now and it seems to work fine! Download coComment! for Firefox coComment! for Firefox allows you to coComment! from the right-click context menu and is of great help especially when commenting in a pop-up window where you can't access your bookmarks. Also, with this extension you will not have to move from the comment area to your bookmarks to click the 'bookmarklet' and then back, before you click the submit button on the blog. With this extension, you can directly move on to the submit button after writing the comment and merely hit the right click 'activating' coComment before submitting the post. Simple Fitts' law and it makes your browsing experience a great deal better and faster. Let me know what you think of it!
