So here's the formatting:

• surrounding text with *, as *bold*, turns out bold
• surrounding text with _, as _italics_, turns out italics
• surrounding text with -, as -strikethrough-, turns out strikethrough.

I looked and looked for underline but never found it. If anyone knows how to, please comment.

Update: There's no way to underline in Gmail chat. Some say holding z, doesn't work.

Some Easter eggs from Mozilla Firefox:

On the URL type about:mozilla and some weird story will appear. I don't know about the origin of this but you should give it a try.

On the URL type about:robots this should work on Firefox 3. Again, this is a really random easter egg.

Enjoy!

Here it is:

1. Start by typing about:config on the address bar in Firefox. If in Firefox 3, click on the "Promise, I'll be careful" and promise you'll be careful.
2. Now right click anywhere inside the window and select New -> Boolean
3. In the box that appears copy and paste config.trim_on_minimize and press enter.
4. Then select True and then press enter.
5. Restart Firefox.

Now that you've done this, if you open up Task Manager and Firefox, try minimizing Firefox and see how much RAM is freed up. See for yourself!

Maybe you have heard about this little trick many times, but here it is again. This will enable you to use your Zune as a portable drive, actually it just shows your Zune in the Windows Explorer window and enables dragging and dropping and stuff, anyway here it is.

In this tweak you will need to use regedit, before you do this, be sure to know what you are doing

1. Make sure your Zune is not plugged in and your the software isn't running.
2. Open regedit, to do this, click start -> run, then type regedit and press enter.
3. Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ControlSet001\Enum\USB\
4. Search for "PortableDeviceNameSpace". This should be contained under the Vid_####&Pid_####\########_-_########_-_########_-_########\Device Parameters within the above ...\USB\ The ##'s listed here will be numbers and letters specific to your Zune.
5. Change the following values: * EnableLegacySupport to 1 * PortableDeviceNameSpaceExcludeFromShell to 0 * ShowInShell to 1
6. Hopefully at this point you can open up "My Computer" and browse your device, though it does NOT show up as a drive letter.You may need to restart your computer.
   Now you can access it as a hard-drive and sync it with the software.

Straight to the steps;

Before you do this, be sure that you know what you are doing.

1. Type "about:config" without quotes on the adress bar and hit enter. If you are using Firefox 3, click on the "I'll be careful, I promise!" button. And Promise you'll be careful.
2. Next, on the filter, search for:

"network.http.pipelining", double click it, and change the value to 'true'
"network.http.proxy.pipelining", double click it and change its value to 'true'
then set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 40. Now it will make 40 requests at once.

3. Now right click anywhere inside the page and select new -> integer, and name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set the value to 0.

How it works? Normally the browser makes one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it makes several requests at once, which really helps pages load much faster.
