Personas, for those not familiar with it, is a Firefox add-on from Mozilla Labs that allows you to easily reskin the browser. Sort of like a theme, but different.
This weekend I decided to make a bacon persona. It was really easy to do; I just made a couple of JPEGs and submitted them to the [...]

The internets are serious business. When you’ve got questions, they’ve got answers… Is Lost on TV? Is it a rerun? What year is it? 2009? 2010? Has the LHC destroyed the world yet? Is Abe Vigoda still alive? Is it MFBT?
Which brings us to the question frequently asked by Mozilla developers. Is the tree green? [...]

Recently, I noticed that one of Wikipedia’s policies is rather interesting: Ignore All Rules.
If a rule prevents you from improving or maintaining Wikipedia, ignore it.
Seems like a rather interesting way to encapsulate exceptions and common sense as part of an official policy, and well as introducing a touch of rambunctious energy and freedom into what [...]

Gerv just posted about the number of random Wikipedia pages in his browser history. Hmm, sounds like a meme in the making!
Back in November, Mardak posted some code to pull data out of Places… I’ve modified it to create a list of 10 random Wikipedia links from your history (along with the total). Looks like [...]

So, apparently Pepsi has just spent 5 months and $1 million to update their logo:
Hmm… Something looks familiar about that. What could it be… Ah, yes:
Let’s just hope they don’t come out with a jointly-branded version that’s Seamonkey flavored. :-)

A month or two ago this stupid little icon showed up on my menu bar. I found it kind of amusing (in a sad kind of way) because it appeared out of the blue, without my having approved anything, and the dropdown menu had a bunch of redundant items that were all variations of “you [...]

Wow. Somehow I missed this funky little beat back from the FF3 release.
Who knew people were making music about Firefox?
And then I learned about:robots, about about:robots
About:robots (the one with the colon in between)
About:robots, about about:robots
About:robots

From the Washington Post:
The “small world theory,” embodied in the old saw that there are just “six degrees of separation” between any two strangers on Earth, has been largely corroborated by a massive study of electronic communication.
With records of 30 billion electronic conversations among 180 million people from around the world, researchers have concluded that [...]

I set up a Maemo build environment not too long ago, so that I could follow along with the Fennec work. I was curious to see what other Mozilla stuff I could get working for my N810…
That’s the current trunk version of Thunderbird (aka Shredder). I had to jump through a few hoops to build [...]
