Firefox 4 (Beta 8) First Impressions
After a couple hours of playing with the latest Firefox on my Mac, I’ve come to a conclusion: Mozilla has Google on the brain. The browser is certainly quick, but I’m not sure I’m going back to it. Safari and Google have stolen my heart.
The Good: Loads pages quickly; provides me a way to render 1s and 0s as useful pictures on my computer screen.
The Bad: Slow to load; new layout doesn’t make me think of Google Chrome at all; extensions do not work (does Mozilla need to force us through this “incompatible extensions” nonsense every time there’s a browser update, big or small?); Unattractive UI layout
The Ugly: Firefox became a powerhouse against IE because it was small, fast, and customizable. Now, like all things American, it’s starting to suffer from “fat ass” syndrome.
WordPress 2.9.1 released
WordPress updates to version 2.9.1, fixing some minor bugs. Now is the time to update.
After some tweaking with my hosting company, I can now use the platform’s automatic updater. Saved me several steps!
