My brother, Jason, posted some pictures from the Time 100 dinner a few weeks ago. Though it may look like he’s friends with all those people, don’t be fooled. He actually just bothered every last one of them during dinner, sometimes mid-chew.

Except Sean Penn. As you can see from the picture, Sean insisted on a photo with my brother and would not take no for an answer.

Erin Joyce thinks Opera 8 is going to be a huge hit, but she fails to understand why Firefox has been so successful in the first place:

“Tabbed browsing? If you’re a Firefox fan — and their legions are growing because of this feature alone — you’ll find it even more appealing in Opera. After all, this crew helped promote the idea of tabbed browsing. The latest version offers tiles, cascades and panels, to name a few ways of keeping track of all the pages you’re running at once.”

My mom doesn’t want tiling. Or cascading. Or panels. She just wants a simple way to keep multiple sites open, and it’s because Firefox provides only that—without all the confusing bells and whistles—that she finds it so appealing.
