I got my first assignment, and bizarrely I've realised I'm going to have to start using a third browser on my computer. Most of the useful plugins for citing and keeping records of journals to cite, go with Firefox. And Mr Mozilla and I parted ways some months ago, because frankly its like entering an unfit overweight beer swilling man with poor eyesight into a night time speed orienteering challenge. So by preference I use Chrome, and because the university website refuses to believe that Chrome is a browser I also use IE*. But neither Chrome nor IE seem to work with any decent citation plug ins, so Mr Mozilla will get another chance.
Though in some ways this is moot, since this one I have to handwrite...
*Some geeky types have a vehement hatred of IE (equally some hate MF, but IE hate seems more common) which I cannot fathom, yes MF is open-source but currently it doesn't do the job as well as it should. I don't care how much money someone makes from my using their product if it works. Random aside over.
