Firefox 3.5 Release Candidate Delayed, But Imminent

Things are heating up in the browser wars, with open source leading the way. Google is out with alpha versions of its Chrome browser for the Mac and Linux, and while the Linux version needs some improvement, it is promising. The newest Windows version of Chrome is also much faster than previous versions. Meanwhile, Mozilla has pushed back its official release date for Release Candidate 1 of the Firefox 3.5 browser to June 10th. While I love the speed of Chrome and its ability to avoid crashing when a single tab crashes, I'm still betting that Firefox 3.5 will be the biggest browser story of the year.


Jetpack FAQ, and the Promising Path Ahead for Firefox Extensions

Recently, we covered Mozilla's Jetpack. It's an API designed to make building extensions for Firefox easier and faster. It doesn't require extensions to be written in XUL, and allows developers to use standard technologies such as HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

According to an update from Mozilla, there is already very strong interest in Jetpack, and a new Jetpack FAQ.

It's also just the answer if you're tired of juggling dozens of apps, tabs, or windows to keep track of what's happening on Twitter and Facebook while watching a video of a cat playing piano and flipping through pictures of penguins.
