Science fair

Last Thursday, I went to a science fair. I took a display board with my scientific project on it, and lots of other people brought theirs too.

My project was finding out if rechargeable or non rechargeable batteries were better, and also if Energizer of Panasonic batteries were better. I don’t know where the file with the final version on it went, but you can see the draft version here.

At the science fair, I got to see everyone else’s projects and get feedback on my own project. Some projects were very interesting, and it was interesting to look at them.

Google Chrome’s new design: Did Chrome copy Firefox?

Recently, Google Chrome had an update that changed its design. Its tabs now look slightly different, as well as several other changes.

The old version looked like this:

 

And the new version looks like this:

 

However, I have noticed that the new version’s tabs look a lot like Mozilla Firefox tabs. Is this a coincidence, or is Google Chrome copying the Mozilla Firefox design?

Mozilla Firefox also had a texture update a while ago. Here are some images of it, just for comparison:

 

Old version:

 

New version:

 

I hope those images are clear enough for you to see them. If they are blurred, you can click on them to make them bigger and clearer. But if you can see them clearly, you might have noticed that the + button on the new version of Chrome looks almost exactly the same as the + button on both versions of Mozilla Firefox. And the shape of the tabs is about halfway between the way the old version of Firefox looked and the way the new Firefox looked.

Is Google Chrome copying Mozilla Firefox, or is this just a coincidence! Comment with your ideas!

Easter egg tagline

Yesterday, there was an easter egg on my blog’s tagline. I removed it today, but it looked like this:

This easter egg was added by the evil blueberries that control Blueberry Post (See my About page if you are confused.) They were bored and angry because there haven’t been any posts with the Blueberries tag on them for ages. Most of the residents of Blueberry Post are blueberries but 30% are strawberries and a few are cats, dogs or other strange creatures. Some of the creatures that are not blueberries say that the blueberries should be fined or killed for violating blog rules, but we can’t do anything because the blueberries are in power.  In the most recent Blueberry Post election, the blueberries won and formed a coalition with the Cat and Dog Parties. The Cat and Dog parties hated each other and were too busy arguing to contribute to the blog’s policies, so in effect, the Blueberry Party have absolute power. And to show all of the other creatures of Blueberry Post who was in charge, they killed ten strawberries to set an example.

If you saw this easter egg before it was taken down, comment and tell me!

Also, there are currently two types of easter eggs on Blueberry Post, not counting this one because it was taken down. There are URL easter eggs and another type that I am not going to tell you about. Unless there are more that I am not telling you about, that would be an easter egg too. Who knows how many types of easter eggs there are on my blog? But if you want to find some, see this post for information.
