Mozilla invites people to design Web's future
,----[ Quote ]
| Mozilla is inviting people to take part in a new conceptual series that aims
| to envision the future design of Web technologies, including browser and
| user-interface innovations, the company said Tuesday.
|
| As part of the series, Mozilla Labs has teamed up with Adaptive Path to
| create the Aurora browser, which demonstrates how an Internet browser might
| look in the future. Adaptive Path is a creative user-experience and design
| consultancy that is responsible for the recent redesign of the MySpace
| social-networking site.

Mozilla Firefox 3.1 on Its Way to Setting Web Video Standard
,----[ Quote ]
| Firefox has a huge user base and acceptance from web developers, which
| theoretically makes Mozilla less vulnerable to submarine patent lawsuits, as
| companies would risk in terms of image if such actions were taken, as
| Mitchell Baker commented at the Products and Technology Roadmap Mozilla
| Summit session. Mike Shaver, Mozilla’s Interim VP of Engineering,
| added, "Somebody had to do it. It’s good it was us."

Firefox 3.0
,----[ Quote ]
| As powerful as ever and considerably more polished, Firefox 3 is an
| improvement on its useful but somewhat clunky predecessor in nearly every
| respect.

Opera Web Standards Curriculum
,----[ Quote ]
| Opera, one of the major alternative Web browsers to Windows’ Internet
| Explorer, has opened the door to a new user market with the publication of
| its Opera Web Standards Curriculum. This curriculum is a complete course that
| teaches standards-based Web development, including HTML, CSS, design
| principles and background theory, and JavaScript basics. It already has
| support from many organizations (including Yahoo! and the Web Standards
| Project) and universities. The first 23 articles are currently available,
| with about 30 more to be published between now and late September. The Web
| Standards Curriculum is completely free to use, accessible, and assumes no
| previous knowledge.

Is the Web still the Web?
,----[ Quote ]
| For developers of RIAs (rich Internet applications), Adobe's announcement
| that Google and Yahoo will soon be able to index text within Flash movies
| should come as welcome news. Until now, Flash files have been black boxes;
| with these binary files, search indexers could no more extract textual
| information from them than from JPEGs or PNGs.
|
| This first stab at Flash search still sounds somewhat primitive, but it
| raises an issue of importance to all Internet application developers. Given
| the growing number of data types and file formats being transmitted over HTTP
| and the increasing complexity of the applications that make use of them, is
| today's Web really still the Web? Or is it morphing into something else? How
| can we ensure that today's Web apps offer enough capabilities and flexibility
| to make Web 2.0 worthy of its name?

Google Is Evil in a Flash
,----[ Quote ]
| What that means in practice is that one of the major downsides of using
| Flash – its invisibility to search engines like Google - has partly
| disappeared. That, in turn, is likely to encourage more Web designers to
| incorporate it into their sites – making the experience more like television
| than the Internet. Flash not only takes the control away from the visitor, it
| renders its content opaque in terms of links.
