多么希望有一天外星人降临地球，一股激光炸掉微软，一股激光炸烂Firefox，然后扔给人类一个附合Web标准的、不用占掉30M内存的、支持modal dialog的、无法禁用Javascript和cookie的、无法自定义css的、无法安装Plugins的、不胡乱升级的浏览器。

We have just enabled an experimental Feed Handling feature, which will be available in nightly builds starting Friday May 5 2006. When you click on links to RSS or Atom feeds, you will be shown a preview page that lets you subscribe to the feed using your favorite reader. The idea for Firefox 2 is to also make web readers available as options. We are allowing web sites to register as Feed Readers using a method exposed on window.navigator. As this is not yet implemented, for Firefox 2 alpha 2 we are offering users the ability to customize this through about:config, and we have also seeded the list with a few providers.

Firefox is a social browser. Flock is a mistake.

下面是新修改的“365Key 天天网摘右键收藏插件 - For Firefox 2.0 Alpha 1”，兼容Firefox 1.5，如果你像哈啰波波一样已经开始体验Bon Echo，请您到以下地址下载：

无论如何，我很推崇Performancing的商业策划，这种策划完全不同于简单的、把别人都当傻瓜的市场炒作。而且，我也很有兴趣继续观察他们未来的每一个步骤。在它开始挣钱之前，我们还不能说Performancing已经成功，但起码，它在按自己想定的策略前进。它“帮助blogger成功”的终极目的，是“blogger帮它成功”。

Filtering spam is not enough. Blue Frog protects your email accounts or your entire mail domain by making spammers remove all Blue Community members from their mailing lists.

QuickChat is an extension that is designed to allow you to chat about anything on any website with the users that are actively browsing that site. And now, with more than 10,000 users actively browsing with the extension and a lot more activity in chatting, this is actually worth downloading ; ). Enjoy!

Firefox是个好浏览器，最好的地方，是它安全，省去很多被流氓骚扰的烦恼。除此此外，大量的第三方扩展，让Firefox变成了一个完全根据个人喜好定制的浏览器。但Firefox最糟糕的，大概是它的稳定性。我曾经多次遭遇Firefox崩溃后面目全非的惨痛。

There are hundreds of firefox extensions on the web. Which ones do you use? Here is my attempt to collect the 50 best and popular firefox extensions which make your browsing, downloading and navigation in Firefox as easy as possible, while harnessing the full power and features of Firefox.

无论如何，像Greasemonkey和Performancing这样的高级扩展的出现，证明了Firefox开放性的价值和无限的可能性。如果Flock不能尽快证明自己的优势，它很可能沦落成一个更加边缘的浏览器。

My guess is Flock is suffering from a bit of backlash over its early hype. And my further guess is that Flock, backed by an impressive group of founders and investors, has a few massive tricks up its sleeve that will be announced (or leak out) sometime soon.

Blogger Web Comments for Firefox is an extension that makes it easy to see what bloggers are saying about a page you're viewing in Firefox and even make your own blog post about it, all without leaving the page you're on.

I’m excited to announce that we’re adopting the icon used in Firefox. John and Chris were very enthusiastic about allowing us (and anyone in the community) to use their icon. This isn’t the first time that we’ve worked with the Mozilla team to exchange ideas and encourage consistency between browsers, and we’re sure it won’t be the last.

一份刚刚整理的五千万独立用户的网站数据分析，去掉低于 1% 的数据，涵盖浏览器、操作系统、屏幕分辨率、屏幕颜色等比例信息，很值得站长或网站从业人员参考！

Adtech found that during October and November 2005, only 0.11% of Firefox users ever clicked on an ad, compared with around 0.5% of IE users. The percentage of IE users clicking on ads varied depending on which version of the browser was being used, the company said: from 0.44% of version 6.x users to 0.53% of version 5.5 users.

IE用户之所以有新版本新特性可用，真是因为Firefox的出现给IE的垄断地位造成了威胁。所以IE用户是Firefox流行的最大受益者。

我却享受着这个DIY的过程，或许使用Fox已经超出了DIY了。它更像某些养成游戏，Fox就是我的一个宠物，我不断地为它寻找更好的饲料，让它长得更可爱，更漂亮。我用Fox并不是因为Mozilla基金会标榜的安全，事实上安全对于我这样一个电脑里没什么重要资料的人来说并不重要，顶多重装一次系统，并没有什么损失。而我最喜欢的，是Fox的自由精神。它是自由的，我可以随意的为它添加功能，可以随意的装扮它。

Microsoft has released a plug-in for the rival open-source Firefox browser to allow users to validate their Windows-based systems prior to downloading software updates from the company.

Google is looking for software engineers to join us in our collaborative development efforts with the Mozilla Foundation on the Firefox browser.

说实在的，如果Google真的收购Firefox，我不知道对Firefox究竟算好事还是坏事。从增强与IE抗衡的实力上说，是好事；但从Firefox的社区支持上说，可能是坏事。Google还会让它保持开源吗？那些志愿者还会像以前那样任劳任怨地为Firefox工作吗？
