I’m going to be out of the country for a few weeks, so things will probably be quieter than usual around here.

Firefox 3 Out, Servers Surrender
Firefox 3 is officially out…kinda – the servers seem to be taking awhile to sync up – I just downloaded 3, refreshed the page and was taken back to the old 2 download page
Still, try and grab it from the official site if you can, help the Mozilla folks break that world record.
EDIT: While your hitting F5 – This is a nice little overview of some of the new features.
Big Picture

Boston.com has a great new “Big Picture” feature full of amazing photo-journalism.
Download Day
On the subject of firefox, head over to Spread Firefox to pledge for Download Day:
“Sounds like a good deal, right? All you have to do is get Firefox 3 during Download Day to help set the record for most software downloads in 24 hours – it’s that easy.”
Firefox 3 Release Candidate 2
The second release candidate for Firefox 3 is out – And all being well this could be the final RC before the official release.![]()
I’ve been using the PortableApps version of the last RC for awhile and – other than some badly coded backwater websites – not had any serious problems. The new rendering engine and background tweaks make it feel a lot snappier than the last version of firefox and i’ve hardly gone back to my old install at all.
