IE 7 significantly slower or is it just me?

By Marcelo

 

    About 10 days ago I installed IE 7 at my home. I don't know if it is just my computer, but it takes longer to open the browser, to create new tabs and even to click on links if compared to IE 6.

 

    The only things that I have installed is the Alexa Toolbar and the Google Toolbar.

 

    Firefox is much, much faster.

 

    Have you seen the same slow down when you installed IE 7?

 

UPDATE: Jamie (comment below) ask if I changed my start page. No I didn't, I always use "about:blank" as my homepage. I can't really confirm, but I'm start to think that Alexa Toolbar makes IE 7 super slow.

A bunch of (cool) new features at Sampa

By Marcelo

    Friday we announced a few cool new features for Sampa. You can read more on the Sampa Blog (http://blog.sampa.comOpen in a new window), but if you are in a hurry, the abstracts are:

 

Post by Email (http://blog.sampa.com/blog/e/Add-content-to-your-blog-via-ema.htmOpen in a new window)
Allows you to send content to your blog via email. Very hand if you are on-the-go and want to add something to your blog. (Note: This post was sent by email!)


Add Pictures via Email (http://blog.sampa.com/blog/e/Add-pictures-to-your-albums-via.htmOpen in a new window)
You can also send pictures directly to your photo albums. Each photo album has their own email address. Imagine this: You receive an email with a bunch of pictures from a party that you went to, forward to your site, and they appear on the site.


Del.icio.us and BlueDot (http://blog.sampa.com/blog/e/BlueDot-this-Del-icio-us-that.htmOpen in a new window)
Sampa is becoming the mashup king. We had YouTube, Flickr, Blogger, Google Analytics (and a few others) and now we have Del.icio.us (http://del.icio.usOpen in a new window) and BlueDot (http://bluedot.usOpen in a new window). You can display your bookmarks on your Sampa site very easily now. And it gets better…


Post bookmarks via Email (http://blog.sampa.com/blog/e/Add-links-to-Del-icio-us-and-Blu.htmOpen in a new window)
I never use this word on my blog, but there is no other way to describe this feature than fucking cool. If you integrate Del.icio.us or BlueDot you can send an email to your site and have the links on that email be sent directly to Del.icio.us or BlueDot.


    Let me know what you think and what else do you want on Sampa.
