Losing time

Damn. Firefox ate my homework. I'd just spent some (too much) time commenting on the debate about taxonomies versus folksonomies, particularly as summarised by Shelley Powers, when it crashed, taking my efforts with it.

It crashes quite a lot, really, often after freezing up for a while. If I switch to a different application then switch back, particularly to a page with text fields in a form, it often takes a while to update and come back to life, and sometimes dies before it does so.

I guess I'd better just get used to using a desktop client rather than the TypePad web form to post. Another app to fiddle with proxy settings for depending on whether I'm at home or at work. Rats.
