Firefox may still be the best browser to use for its security and privacy extensions, but if you have Chrome or Safari user interface envy you can use the userChrome.css file to pare down the UI to something a bit more spiffy.

I never knew you could do this!
Now you have a tidy, one HTML file backup of all your Firefox bookmarks that you can even open and click links in, and reimport into another machine!
I’ve been a heavy Delicious user since 2003 (so was mum), but sometimes random links find their way into my Bookmarks toolbar. Not enough to warrant use of Mich Kapor’s FoxMarks, but its good to know I can back them up :)

I’ve decided to replace all the icons for my Mozilla browser installs with the icon from Netscape Navigator in a fit of nostalgia. Technically, it’s not completely a falsehood, kinda.

Mozilla’s naming conventions have almost started to confuse me as much as Intel and Ubuntu. Looking for the developer builds of Firefox this morning I had the option to get Namoroka which I expected, but also Lorentz which shared the same 3.6.3 version number.

For those of you as addicted to Tree Style Tab for Firefox as I am, there’s been a flurry of updates over the last week that address some appearance and functionality bugs as well as improved compatibility with other extensions. Get it!

If you’re a Windows user, it’s safe to start using Firefox again. Firefox has been updated to 3.6.2 which fixes that nasty exploit CERN discussed and recommended people switch browsers for on the Windows platform.

More than ever before I’m asked why I haven’t moved to Chrome, as if it’s just the default option and anything else requires an immediate justification. Hey, it’s religion and atheism all over again! Anyway here’s a pretty table thingy showing why I still use The Firefox.

Macslocum over at O’Reilly Answers is asking people to submit their favourite browser plugins and extensions. No prizes for guessing which one I chose!

Having only just sat at Starbucks to do some programming and cleaning out my desktop (I let far too many files accumulate) I accessed the free WiFi and launched Firefox only to see the above dialog presenting me with a NoScript update. Problem is, I’m connected to the WiFi hotspot but not to the open internet! Spooked out stuff.
