Mozilla Messaging building nest for Thunderbird 3.1
,----[ Quote ]
| Mozilla Messaging has published a proposed
| schedule for Thunderbird 3.1, the next
| release of the popular e-mail client. The
| organization is refining its development
| process and could potentially shift
| towards shorter release cycles and a more
| incremental approach to development.

Browsers of Europe
,----[ Quote ]
| The fact that browser distribution is not
| randomly distributed across European
| countries, but appears to closely follow
| traditional regional boundaries is
| somewhat surprising and suggests that
| there are significant cultural factors
| that affect browser choice. Note for
| example the large gap that StatCounter
| shows between Germany with ~60% Firefox
| and ~25% IE (so over 2:1) and its
| neighbors France with 55~60% IE and 30~35%
| Firefox and Denmark ~60% IE and ~25%
| Firefox (basically the opposite).

The 10 best new Firefox add-ons of 2009
,----[ Quote ]
| This past year felt like a rebuilding year
| for Firefox add-ons, with two new
| frameworks implemented to help guide the
| future of extensions. Personas gave
| Firefox on-the-fly theme-switching, and
| users can expect it to be part of the
| stable version of Firefox 3.6 when that
| gets released. Jetpack takes a similarly-
| minded approach to feature add-ons,
| allowing programmers to create feature-
| rich add-ons from little more than HTML,
| CSS, and JavaScript. Expect JetPack to
| eventually be part of Firefox by default.

Firefox vs. Chrome
,----[ Quote ]
| The first release of Chrome browser was
| held in 2008, then a new Google project
| looked quite weak and very few people saw
| him as a serious competitor. Nevertheless,
| for the year the situation has changed
| dramatically, if not, it is very much in
| mass Chrome 4.0 implemented improvements
| and even the opportunity to install
| extensions. So how Google is developing
| its own browser, suggests that with each
| update it looks increasingly to Firefox.
| Now, these programs do not seem
| competitive, even according to Net
| Applications, they do not affect the
| market share of each other.

Thunderbird 3 comes up with new search interface
,----[ Quote ]
| The latest version of the popular open-
| source desktop email client, Thunderbird
| 3, was finally released a few days ago and
| it sports a range of new or improved
| features like better search and a tabbed
| interface (download site:
| http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-
| US/thunderbird). It had been in the making
| for about two years.
|
| The organisation behind it is Mozilla
| Messaging, a subsidiary of the Mozilla
| Foundation that promotes the web browser
| Firefox. Most heavy email users might find
| managing the voluminous inflow and outflow
| of messages a daunting challenge. The
| latest version of Thunderbird has come up
| with a new search interface, which
| includes filtering and timeline tools that
| help users dig out fast the messages they
| were looking for.
