I tried something different Monday. I cleaned out all of the tabs in both Firefox as well as NetNewsWire so I could have a clean slate. I kept all of the links in a text file which hopefully I won’t forget about. This week though, I figured I’d share them. So without further ado, these are the tabs I opened this week, excluding documentation and internal sites.
