two things on Google Chrome

First, a easy way to block ads in Chrome… it's from Lifehacker Australia… I haven't tried it, but it looks like it could be a pretty tight solution and work for other browsers, too, since it uses a local proxy. [link]

And second, Chrome themes seem to be broken now… with an update to Chrome… not sure when this exactly happened, but it did. Likely enough some themes have been updated, but not you won't put a hole through your monitor when Chrome keeps crashing when you use a custom theme.
