Hitler says he'd rather shoot a potato at his head than switch from Chrome to Opera

Originally on the TechCrunch site (5th July). The TechCrunch people write:

"For the record, Lifehacker ran some speed tests on both the Windows and Mac platforms, and concluded that Chrome and Safari still beat Opera’s latest on the latter OS, while the latest stable version of Chrome also beat Opera 10.60 on Windows.

Furthermore, DailyTech tested Opera 10.6 against the upcoming Internet Explorer 9, and while they concluded that the browser outranked it in all 3 benchmarks, the Opera browser only came out on top in one of them, with Chrome beating them in the two other ones."

After the Downfall meme goes meta, it becomes personal - Hitler Vs The Volcano (feat. me)

I've just got back from a week in London, trapped by the Icelandic funeral pyre ash cloud.

I spent far too much of my time watching Downfall parodies and reading about the take downs on YouTube.

In my absence, my colleagues at BBH in New York, who must respect me *so* much, put this together; I've just landed and watched it for the first time.

Lots of 'in' jokes but I still think it's a very worthy addition to the meme. Whatever might be next . . .
