Safari better than Firefox
People are very serious about what browser they use, and I understand why. I spend most of my computing life using one browser or another (my current fave is the Intel optimized FireFox variant). Now, I'm just an average Joe, so you can take my ...
Firefox 3 under the hood
Firefox developer Josh Aas has an interesting technical discussion about what's new in Firefox 3 for Mac OS X. Chiefly, he talks about Gecko 1.9, the updated rendering engine for Firefox 3. The most significant change, he notes, is that Gecko 1.9 is ...
Is Apple aiming at Firefox?
John Lilly, COO of Mozilla, has a bone to pick with Steve Jobs and Apple. As you might imagine, John keeps an eye on the browser market space, and he was interested to see Apple port Safari to Windows. This was a big deal, but the slide above had ...
Beta version of Firefox 3.6 for Mac now available

Firefox commercial pokes fun at the competition
A viral Firefox commercial poking fun at its browser competition features the anthropomorphized icons of Internet Explorer, Netscape and Apple's own Safari acting, well - somewhat silly. No matter which browser you're a fan of, it's a pretty funny ...
Firefox 2 now available. Honest.

Mozilla struggles with Firefox 3 release
Promised at 10 a.m. Pacific time (1 p.m. Eastern), Mozilla was eager to set a one-day world-record for the release of Firefox 3. With most of the day already gone for much of the world, and nary an update to be seen, it's looking bad for June 17. ...

From Firefox to Safari (and back again)
I realize I may not be your average browser user. As a web developer, a browser to me is two parts daily use, two parts testing, and one part challenge. Since 2005, I've been using Firefox in some form or fashion as both my primary browser and as a ...
Firefox 2.0 Beta 2 released
It seems like just yesterday that Firefox Beta 1 came out, and now we have Firefox 2.0 Beta 2. What's new from Beta 1? Mostly it seems that the UI have been given a facelift, and I really like the much smaller title section. Tabs also get a refresh ...
