Tags: Mozilla Firefox 1.0 Released!
The day is finally here – the long-awaited 1.0 release of Mozilla Firefox has arrived.
Firefox News
Well, anyone who follows Slashdot already knows that Firefox RC1 was released today, although it still contains the Slashdot rendering bug. However, it is apparently not an actual release candidate as the version number suggests, but merely an interim version. While skimming the comments on Slashdot, I found a link to processor-specific optimized Firefox and Thunderbird builds. The trunk versions fix the Slashdot bug, but have the old Find (Control-F) design. It’s unfortunate I have to choose between my preferred Find method and proper rendering of Slashdot, but I guess you get what you pay for. Right now I’m running the MOOX M3 optimized build of RC1. Not too shabby.
New Releases from the Mozilla Foundation
Firefox 0.9, Thunderbird 0.7, and Mozilla 1.7 have been released. Some changes I’ve noticed in Firefox: new theme and plugin system (old themes need to be ported), an “update” feature that acts like Windows Update for Firefox, and the new theme. I don’t really care for the new theme so much, but the old theme (called Qute) is available here for 0.9.
If only Thunderbird would support “posting” to a mailbox like Outlook/Evolution do. Overall, it’s an awesome product and it’s what I use as my e-mail client.
Mozilla Thunderbird 0.6 Released
What a great way to start a Monday – version 0.6 of my favorite e-mail client, Mozilla Thunderbird, has been released. Find out what’s new and get it now!
Web Developer Plugin for Firefox
Wanda found a cool plugin for Firefox called Web Developer. It installs a toolbar in Firefox that allows you to alter all sorts of aspects of a web page, like dynamically modifying CSS, resizing, validation, and more. Very cool for the dedicated web developer.
Firefox 0.8 and Thunderbird 0.5 Released
Hot off the presses! Mozilla Firefox 0.8 (formerly Mozilla Firebird) and Mozilla Thunderbird 0.5 have been released! If you haven’t tried Mozilla yet, you might check out this article for some good reasons to make the switch. If you’re ready to download, here are some good mirrors:
Overnet
I just got done trying Overnet, which is a file sharing utility built on eDonkey technology. It seems to mix the best of Kazaa with the best of eDonkey. It’s not perfect, but it’s nice for find some videos. I’ve found some good Enterprise eps on it so far. Oh yeah, if you’re sick of popups, check out the Phoenix web browser, built on Mozilla.
