Q&A: Mozilla's Tristan Nitot
,----[ Quote ]
| Having a pay cheque definitely is a change! In 2003 there were eight to 10
| employees. Now we have 160. We now have market share, [meaning] the ability
| to influence the market and force Redmond to wake up and improve the
| product...while the product is interesting, what’s really important is the
| health of the web.

Firefox market share exceeds 20%, Internet Explorer dips below 70%
,----[ Quote ]
| It has been six weeks since Firefox 3 has been released and if we believe
| market share numbers provided by an ongoing survey of NetApplications, then
| it appears that Mozilla has had a successful launch with market share gains,
| especially at the expense of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer.

Firefox Beta release date announced
,----[ Quote ]
| Interestingly and more importantly, Firefox 3.1 now includes Ogg Vorbis audio
| and Ogg Theora video codec support. The implementation of natively supported
| and open source audio and video formats in Firefox has been underway for more
| than a year and is driven by the developers' intent that Firefox 3.1 support
| the next World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) hypertext markup language
| specification HTML5, which includes the new "<audio>" and "<video>" tags.

New tab switching added for Firefox 3.1
,----[ Quote ]
| Press Ctrl + Tab (or Shift + Ctrl + Tab) and you are presented with tab
| thumbnails and titles with the most recently visited ones first so you can
| more easily determine which tab you want to go, have the one you most
| probably want to go closer, and as a result get to it faster. Hold Ctrl
| pressed and keep pressing Tab to see the thumbnails smoothly scroll to the
| left while the status bar displays the tab web address.

Firefox is King
,----[ Quote ]
| Mozilla Firefox is now the king of all browsers. --At least based on the web
| traffic data gathered from junauza.com and from a popular tech blog by known
| Windows Vista fanboy user Jeff Atwood. Firefox tops all other web browsers
| and most importantly kicked its archrival Internet Explorer out of the
| highest position.

Firefox 3.1 (Shiretoko) planned features draft
,----[ Quote ]
| A very early draft of planned features reveals that as expected, this release
| will be mainly about landing stuff that didn’t make it on time for the
| Firefox 3, along with the usual performance, stability and security bug
| fixes.
|
| Visual tab switching and tab searching/filtering were both tried for Firefox
| 3, abandoned for other more critical features, and are being considered for
| 3.1. Ctrl+Tab, a extension developed by Dao Gottwald implements both of them
| displaying a thumbnail of the opened tabs when pressing Ctrl + Tab to switch
| tabs.

Developers: Firefox 3.1 Update Should Be "Easy"
,----[ Quote ]
| The release of Firefox 3.0 has been a resounding success, but for some the
| upgrade path has been less than painless. The latest version of the open
| source browser differed enough from previous versions that many add-ons had
| to be substantially rewritten before they would work with the new release.
| And just when the dust appeared to be clearing, Firefox 3.1 is on the
| horizon.
