11 Jul 2011 by Scott Nesbitt
That seems kind of obvious, doesn’t it? Blogging from insider your browser, I mean. That’s how most people do it — go to whatever blogging site they use, log in, and start typing. But that’s not necessarily the best way. And it’s not the most convenient, either, especially if you have more than one blog. So, what is the best way? That depends on your needs. But a good...

The Day I Left Firefox Behind
27 Jan 2011 by Bryant Sombke / 14 Comments
In the early times of the Information Age, web junkies like myself did not have many web browsing options.

If you don’t know what Woot! is, it’s a site sells a single item each day (usually at an exciting price). There are several different versions of the site – selling things like shirts, wine, and stuff for kids - but the original Woot! is the place where most of the action happens.

A Quick Look at the New Firefox Mobile (Beta) for Android
11 Oct 2010 by Kevin Schulte
Back in May, I looked at a pre-alpha build of Firefox Mobile for Android. Being a pre-alpha product, it had its shortcomings. It was slow and buggy, yet showed tremendous potential to shake up the Android browser market. Last week, Firefox Mobile officially entered its beta stage, bringing along with it tons of improvements and a much better user experience. While not quite ready for primetime, Fi...
