Firefox Panorama has gone through alot of name changes, last one was Tab Candy.  This add-on, which will come built in with Firefox 4 when its released, allows you to group your tabs together based on whatever folder name you want.  Kinda like your virtual desktops for windows but you can even do more with it.  Here is a good link with some info on it and a video.

There seems to be some confusion as to how HST affects Real Estate transactions.  If you are purchasing a re-sale property, a house that is not newly built, then you don't have to pay HST on the purchase price of the home.  The HST you will have to pay is on the services like legal fees, Real Esate Agents commission etc.

Now this story changes if your buying a new home, yes there is HST but there are rebates and a lot of other complicated stuff involved and I would suggest researching into it if that is the case.

Air quality advisories have been lifted for Metro Vancouver, Prince George and the Fraser Valley.  It's nice to be able to breath clear air and be able to see the mountains again.  I hope this lasts.

Looks like its now going to be announced that Star Wars the Old Republic will actually have space combat.  The exclusive article will be hosted in the August issue of PC Gamer magazine.  I might consider picking one up myself for just this reason.

While working full time and getting tired or not feeling well, sure does make it difficult to keep a blog updated.  I find this especially true when your not used to keeping a blog active.  I'll try to do better in the future and keep the information coming.

Starcraft II has been released and I have been enjoying my time playing the single player campaign.  I believe I am nearing completion.

Finally someone I know will be getting the game as well, so I should be able to enjoy some multiplayer games with him.

Here is my Starcraft II profile, encase any of you want to follow my progress.

If you haven't done this yet and you intend to purchase the digital copy of Starcraft II on Tuesday then you best head over and download Starcraft II now.  That way you don't have to wait on Tuesday morning to play after purchasing.

Looks like firefox is creating what they call tab candy.  It will allow you to zoom out from your browsers tabs and get an overview of all your tabs.  It'll let you group your tabs and switch between them like virtual desktops.  Then you can share your groups with other people and you guys can both work on the group at the same time.

Someone recently mentioned to me that we have never been out of the recession, we just have been able to take it really well so far.  I have come to believe it this past year with how slow the Real Estate Market has been in Ashcroft.

On that note why is the Bank of Canada stifflying our good recession by increase interest rates up to .75.

The time for waiting is soon at an end.  Starcraft II will be released on the 27 of July.  After thinking long and hard I have decided that I will get this game.  Its a classic and you can't go wrong with blizzard.

I should also point out that game testing for Star Wars The Old Republic is now underway as of last week.  Click on the link below to view the official news article about it.
