Google Chrome Incognito – Mac OSX Perfect Solution

  • Update: “Open” For leopard doesn’t have –args as option so pay attention for the differences between the two.

Aug-12-2009 I published a script that start Google Chrome in incognito mode by default.

Since than G’s of readers used my method, and now I’m releasing the perfect Mac Solution for that problem.

Inspired by Craig H from The Web Site Is Down

1st Option:

Download the DMG I Created Here: Google Chrome (Incognito) For Snow Leopard

OR This one (Google Chrome Incognito) For Leopard

2nd Option:

1. Open Apple Script Editor and paste the following code.
Snow Leopard: do shell script "open -a Google\\ Chrome --new --args -incognito"

Leopard: do shell script "/Applications/Google\\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\\ Chrome –incognito"

2. Save & Run

Google DNS Test Results

After using Google DNS for few days, And after running NameBench twice I found that:

Google DNS is faster then Most if not All other DNS Servers.

Check out the results:

dns-chartresponse-duration-chart

Bottom Line: 9% Faster than UltraDNS

BIG BUT: Google DNS resolves few sites with wrong IP’s.

Users reporting that few sites are not loading using Google DNS, when using nslookup to find out why, Google shows the wrong IP address for the site.

Nice Job Google, but there’s way to go….

Google Public DNS – Is It Fast?

Google Continues Eating the Internet With Google Public DNS It feels like Google is slowly becoming the internet. First, with their twice-as-fast HTTP replacement, SPDY, and now with Google Public DNS, which promises faster DNS lookups and tons of data and cash for Google. Google DNS IP addresses? 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

via Google Continues Eating the Internet With Google Public DNS – Google public dns – Gizmodo.

CoolGeex Verdict :

I never liked using the ISP’s DNS Server, slow and crashing all the time.

I’m using OpenDNS for a while now, I can also block content using them.

After trying Google DNS Server for 30 Minutes it does look faster, I’ll keep you updated on that.

Google-extra-storage

If you need some extra space for your already big Gmail inbox, or to stash more pictures in Picasa Web Albums, now is the time.

Google just sliced its extra storage prices, offering: 20GB for $5 a Year (Full list of prices in the end of this article)

With this kind of cheap prices you should consider moving your pictures to Picasa.

I just think that it’s another step towards Google Cloud OS.
