gifs load quicker than bmps, and they both load in my browser.
ogg loads a seperate program, while mp3 on livejournal will load a flash player, or i can just click on the file and put it in another tab and listen to it right in the browser.
so i guess unless there's some sort of plugin or add-on that will make ogg files load and play in my browser it's pretty inconvenient.
that retarded little flash thing is really the main reason i don't use mp3 for voice posts; i find it irritating that everything ever needs to call up flash for some minor braindead task
i like flash a hell of a lot better than stupid stupid java applets (though that IS kind of a questionable comparison to make but i don't care) but I still prefer to avoid them where they aren't absolutely necessary because i mean firefox is sucking up 200mb of RAM alREADY it doesn't NEED an excuse to eat up even more.
It's not that it's creepy. It's just that it's fucking annoying to have someone blurting out spoilers for your disaster porn.
Of course, there's been times when I've studied a crash as a case study for an engineering class and I'll be all "Oh, I know that one! This one's great!".
