Firefox 5 in Slovenia

Here in Slovenia we like to party like any good nation, so what better excuse than the birthday of our beloved Firefox. After all we were 2nd or 3rd to reach 50% Firefox market share, but are still licking our wounds after being pipped at the post by an Indonesia that came from nowhere. Not [...]

It Started With A Tweet

I never thought that it would come to this.

It was a tweet from Christoper Blizzard that I can’t find right now, or perhaps it was this blog post. So I put out a call. Lo and Behold, Marko Mrdjenovi?  (aka Fry, aka Slovene web dev extraordinaire) was listening. He didn’t know of an existing tool, [...]

Holiday Moz Snippets

Some random snippets/observatiosn…

Nat Torkington over at O’Reilly Radar want Mozilla to reverse its course on XULRunner. I’m confused. He seems to be implying that it should be dropped. shaver has already called him on it in the comments.
What has happened to MozPad. The initial enthusiasm and burst of action has evaporated. I hold my [...]

Local vs. Global Search

Over in bug 375198, it seems like I have thrown a spanner in the works by suggesting that perhaps najdi.si should not become the default search plugin in Slovene Firefox. I actually think it is a great idea to use and support local searches as much as possible, but I was butting into the debate [...]

Art Through Add-ons
