Most Common User Agents
A dynamic, downloadable list of the most common user agents. Have you ever wondered what Most Common User Agents are? This is a list of the most common user agents, dynamically generated to remain accurate and up to date. Often times people will post a list on their site, which soon becomes outdated. So, I decided I would create a user agent list that is dynamically generated and updated- it uses data from my own website to keep the list of user-agent data up to date – which means the list stays up to date as new browsers are released and new user agents emerge. It is, in effect, a highly accurate representation of common useragents. Below you will find a table showing the most popular / most-used UserAgents and percentage of visitors who had that user-agent when they visited the site. And, as of May 2012 this page should now be even more dynamic with a new method for calculating a rolling average of visitors. Your user agent is: Last Updated: Mon, 18 Jan 2021 17:40:13 +0000 percentuseragentsystemuser_agent_string_md5 16.0%Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/87.0.4280.88 Safari/537.36Chrome 87.0 Win102d6330f380f44ac20f3a02eed0958f668.8%Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:84.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/84.0Firefox 84.0 Win102c129f86f872c5672a380bd7ea7a2cad6.6%Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/87.0.4280.141 Safari/537.36Chrome 87.0 Win1094fb6483abf307a4bafac80827dcc22a4.1%Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_6) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/14.0.2 Safari/605.1.15Safari 14.0 macOS31be1cb15e7b312c97b6bcb4379c5cd43.1%Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/87.0.4280.88 Safari/537.36Chrome 87.0 macOSd8c889f6b9dfe2067a6d5fee37e97edb3.0%Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:84.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/84.0Firefox 84.0 Linuxf2b21363376cd03caa3f0369df2845ab2.8%Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:84.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/84.0Firefox 84.0 Linux8f124a1d88bbebc9925bd60b12b3e9722.4%Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac … Continue reading
Diff previous versions with Dropbox and Google Chrome
While Dropbox does an excellent job of keeping track of versions of files, it doesn’t make it easy to compare the different versions – until now. DropboxDiff, a Google Chrome extension by Victor Shih, does an amazing job of allowing you to compare versions of files stored on dropbox, with the diff program of your choice. The screenshots on the extension page were a little small, so I decided to post a few of my own below. Get the free extension here.
Chrome Extensions Directory
Windows: chrome_root\Application\chrome_version\Extensions\ Example: c:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\6.0.422.0\Extensions\ Mac OS X: /Applications/Google Chrome.app/Contents/Extensions/ or ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Extensions/ Linux: /opt/google/chrome/extensions/
Google Lucky Search URL
The URL for a Google’s “I’m Feeling Lucky” search is: http://www.google.com/search?i&q=%s You can replace the %s with your query. This is especially helpful when creating a keyword search in a browser. As a related note, you can do an automatic image search with this: http://www.google.com/images?&q=
Bigger Gmail Compose Box
A Gmail Compose Resize Extension for Google Chrome Details: Have you ever wanted a larger compose box for gMail? especially when using g-mail to reply to a conversation? I give them credit, most times when composing a new message or using it in full-screen mode, it does well. But if you’re like me, about 80% of your conversations are replies. And that is, after all, what is great about g-mail, right? The awesome threading capabilities. So why doesn’t g-mail support a resizeable compose box? You are stuck with a fixed size, of about 260 px, even in the Chrome browser!!! A browser that is know to let you resize text boxes by default! Well, I don’t know the answers to these questions, but they are frustrating, so I’ve written an extension for Chrome (or Chromium) which allows you to specify how big you want that box to be, and then it automatically resizes it (it make take a few seconds after you hit reply to fully grow). Update: As of 2/7/2012 I’ve written a newer, and more updated extension download it here Download the extension here: Bigger Gmail Compose Box It has an options page, which you can access by going to settings (wrench icon) and then extensions. I have also added in auto-update for this extension. I’m really quite pleased with it and wanted to share. Let me know what you think. Having trouble? Didn’t know that Chrome allows extensions? You probably need to upgrade to the latest version. … Continue reading

greasemonkey – google images relinker (v 2.0)
I really like the google image relinker script for greasemonkey, but sometimes when there’s a hotlink protection or something else funky, you just want the original google images link. i updated this greasemonkey image re-linker script so that it relinks the images, but also provides links to open the original link (both in a new tab, and in a new window) Download the script: google_image_relinker_v2_00.user.js.txt (rename to just .js) google_image_relinker_v2_00.user.js (right click and save as) Greasemonkey scripts can be used with chrome or firefox
Chromium Download
This has become increasingly difficult to find online. It looks like the Chromium blog talks more about it without giving many clear options about how to download or install chromium. Well, here’s my small contribution. You can find the latest files here: http://build.chromium.org/buildbot/continuous/win/LATEST/ and for mac: http://build.chromium.org/buildbot/continuous/mac/LATEST/ Try this instead: http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-continuous/index.html I highly recommend the mini_installer.exe for Windows XP or Vista. Here are links to the bleeding edge builds of chrome for mac or chrome for linux Also, Chromium is MUCH BETTER for installing and managing extensions ( see chromeextensions.org ) than Chrome. You can install with just one click! And you get a nifty “extensions” panel under the “tools” menu. Chromium install locations: C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Chromium\Application C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome win 7: C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Chromium\Application
Chromium as default mailto: on Windows XP
Here’s how! If you have Chrome installed, uninstall it, or this program (below) will use Chrome by default instead of Chromium (Chromium is not Chrome) Make sure this directory structure exists: C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome (replace User with your username) Don’t create an Application folder inside the chrome folder – the next steps will do that. Get the Sysinternals Suite (or at least the junction program for creating softlinks) Run this command: junction “C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application” “C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Chromium\Application” (Replace User with your username) Download ChromeMailer and go through setup Launch ChromeMailer and choose your options. Trouble? ChromeMailer (as of 8/09) looks for Chrome in it’s default path – your profile\Google\Chrome\Application You can either install chromium into that directory, or install it into the proper directory and create a softlink (junction) so the folders mirror each other. If you delete something in one folder it will be deleted in the other one, too. Look up softlinks on wikipedia for more info.
Chromium is NOT Chrome
Chromium is NOT Chrome. It’s the name of the bleeding-edge nightly releases that are untested for bugs. Some of the more advanced features that Chromium is currently offering includes ftp downloads and the ability to pick and choose the items which will appear on your startup page. You can make these sticky, reorder, or prevent certain ones from appearing. Visit the Chromium homepage, development blog, or latest releases page for more information.
