There are some Firefox themes that I absolutely love, but they don't always get everything the way that I like them.

A good example of this was a theme I tested out recently that styled both the title and URL in the exact same fashion.

Bulk Open Links in Firefox

A little while back we wrote about a cool Firefox extension called Snap Links that would let you draw a box around a bunch of hyperlinks with your mouse, and have them all open in new tabs. I loved this extension, but the sad news is that it hasn't received an update in well over two years.

Firebug 1.5 Web Development Tool for Firefox Released

Firebug is well known to web developers as one of the best tools to have at your side when trying to debug website issues. Many have said that it's a priceless tool, and at one point Joe Hewitt wasn't sure if it would remain free. He questioned whether users would be willing to shell out $15-$25 for an extension, but he strayed from the paid route in favor of keeping it open source.

How to Remove Embarrassing Sites from the Firefox Awesome Bar

In August of last year, Mozilla research showed that one of the reasons why people don't want to upgrade to Firefox 3 is the Awesome Bar. When you're typing in your address bar, the Awesome Bar displays suggestions based on your browsing history and bookmarks. This is a great time saver...

Growl Becoming a Must-have App on Windows?

Having bought my first Mac about a year and a half ago one app that I quickly started to love was Growl. It brought a universal notification system to the operating system that any application could make use of, and the cross-program uniformity made the OS experience that much better.

CyberSearch 2.0.2 Released

For those of you using CyberSearch I thought I'd let you know that I just released version 2.0.2 that resolves almost all of the issues users were reporting with Firefox 3.6 Beta 1. The main reason I wanted to let everyone know is that Mozilla hasn't approved CyberSearch 2.0 yet, which means you won't receive an update notification in the browser.

Best Firefox 4 Theme

There have been a few themes that have been developed using the mockups Mozilla made for Firefox 4.0. What's funny is that while Firefox 4.0 is over a year away you can already get the same beautiful design without having to wait.

Integrated Gmail Transforms Your Inbox into a Website Hub

For the longest time I've been wanting Google to bring all of their services together into some sort of unified interface. A place where I could read my email, manage my calendar, catch up on news in my RSS feeds, search for a place on a map, and so on.

Firefox 3.7 and Firefox 4.0 Interface Mockups

Mozilla just wrapped up the Firefox 3.5 release a few weeks ago, but they are already going to town on what they can do for future improvements. When they redesigned Firefox 3.0 I thought the new designs were okay, but they weren't anything that seemed to be revolutionary.
