The latest hourly build of Firefox 2 now has the new theme implemented for the tabs as well. Here is a comparison of the Firefox 2 Beta 1 theme to the most current one available:

I forgot to mention a few weeks ago that John Haller from PortableApps.com had updated the Firefox Portable (that is the new name, it's no longer known as Portable Firefox) to version 1.5.0.6. The update fixed the Windows Media Player bug that many people were experiencing troubles with.

WinRAR 3.60 was conveniently just released which comes about 2-weeks after they were offering version 3.51 for free. If you read the details when you got your free key it said that you are not entitled to any upgrades...and they stuck to that.

MacDailyNews did a pretty thorough investigation to prove that Microsoft's security site had an image of a Mac user.

Windows Live Writer came out with quite a bang the other day when it was released. It gives users the ability to preview their post on their site at the click of a button. I have never used any blogging software before that handles the way Windows Live Writer does.

Firefox 2 Beta 2 has already been delayed as most of us know, and now it looks like that delay has rippled through to the other milestones.

Google just announced that the WiFi network in Mountain View, CA is now ready for the public to use. All you need is a wireless-enabled device to get yourself on the Web and start browsing.

The Google Analytics Blog has announced that you no longer need an invitation to receive the Website statistics tracking for free. Just head on over to the Google Analytics site and login with you Google account. It will then take you through the steps that are needed to setup your Website.
