![[Item Permalink]](http://radio.weblogs.com/0112083/images/ur_bullet.gif){kind=small} Use of Universal Rule -- Comment()
I'm somewhat surprised by the amount of visits Universal Rule receives. This weblog averages currently about 100 page reads on weekdays, and about 50 page reads on weekends. The maximum has been about 900 page reads. This was when I posted a review of Matlab 6.5 on Mac OS X. When I posted a review of Mathematica 4.2, this generated about 600 page reads during the first day. A lot of the visits are generated by the referrals from Google and other search services. Typical searches are on Mathematica, Matlab, and assorted science topics. Sometimes really strange search terms refer visits to this weblog. And some visitors probably find something they were not expecting, for example my poem iSwitch to iMac.

I am now using Chimera 0.5, the nightly build for 04.11.2002. Some rough edges still remain, but the speed of this browser is fine, and tabbed browsing makes web easier accessible.

Today I started up Chimera 0.5, which is a fast Mozilla-based browser for Mac OS X. I have been using Chimera previously, but always returned to OmniWeb. Now Chimera has improved, and handles also SSL connections. I may be using Chimera as my favorite browser, if there aren't too many crashes. Importing OmniWeb bookmarks worked flawlessly, which makes it easy to switch to Chimera.

Net Monitor is a nice too for keeping track of the network traffic on Mac OS X.
