[read more]Firefox vs IE
Date: December 16th, 2008 | No Comments
Here at the BootsnAll office, we’re pretty much committed to using Firefox as our browser of choice. It’s been that way since the early days.

At BootsnAll we like to think we’re pretty passionate about independent travel and as far as jobs go, connecting other travellers, writing about travel and building tools to make getting out on the road that much easier is pretty damn sweet.

While checking out the BnA boards I fell down an internet rabbit hole and came across this fun little game:
How many countries can you name in 5 minutes?
My score was a paltry 70, but I blame my typing skills and naming conventions (Tahiti nor French Polynesia count, apparently). It’s good enough to beat the [...]

Member Spotlight
It's been awhile since we had a BootsnAll member stop by the office. However, thank to a recent post on the message boards wondering where the Boots Crew were these days, we managed to arrange lunch with Bideshi, aka Mike (blue shirt below).
