Formatted XML is not displayed in the browser | Firebug
I ran into this with Firebug 1.5 and Firefox 3.5.7. For now I'm reverting to Firebug 1.4.5, since that seems to be less problematic.

Identify - Firefox entension | Madgex Lab
Looks a lot like Tom's Shelf, but in Firefox. Which, thinking about it, might have been an easier place to start.

JSON in Firefox | τεχνοσοφια
"JSONovich is a Firefox extension that pretty-prints and colorizes JSON content (of types application/json and text/x-json). It uses json.org's json2.js to parse and indent JSON data, unless there is a native JSON parser as in Firefox 3.1, and google-code-prettify's parser and stylesheet to colorize it."

Font-weight is still broken | Clagnut
The article title goes on to say "except in one browser", but then that's pretty much broken, if you ask me. It's annoying; this is a CSS 1 property, and it really should be supported.

Trying Out CouchDB In FireBug | Ben Atkin’s Weblog
A nice introduction to what you can do with CouchDB's web front end, Futon, especially when you throw Firebug into the mix.

The Google Browser | The Truth about Mozilla
An interesting post from back in February about Firefox developers hired into Google suddenly going dark. Now it looks like this can be confirmed as them moving to Chrome-on-Webkit. (Presumably it was going to originally be Chrome-on-Gecko.)

Mozilla Labs: Ubiquity | Daring Fireball Linked List
Gruber is sceptical about Ubiquity: "Quicksilver (or Enso) but only for the web", "The more ambitious examples (which don’t work yet), make me think it’s trying to do what AppleScript tried but failed to do. "

Color Management | Firefox Add-ons
Like the page says: "Provides a GUI front end for enabling color management in Firefox". Should help with those "but my images look shit on Flickr" complaints, but not the "should be on by default" ones.

Renderance | Textism
On the correct CSS incantations for fonts (and the implementations that understand them). I'll have to have a look at this for husk.org's tightly kerned Helvetica at some point.

New search powers lead Firefox 3 | BBC NEWS
A puff piece. ' Typing "cameras", for example, into the url bar, will bring up a list of the sites that the user recently visited that have cameras in their names' Welcome to IE for Mac 5, circa 1998. Sigh.

POW -- Plain Old Webserver | Firefox Add-ons
"The Plain Old Webserver uses Server-side Javascript (SJS) to run a server inside your browser." Now with Perl and Python as well as JS. Nutty.

LDR + ShareOnTumblr – Userscripts.org
It's difficult to tell, but this might be a userscript that lets you post ffffound images to Tumbler. I've noticed a fair bit of interplay between the two sites, actually. Useful as a hook for a Flickr/ffffound GM hack?

beltzner: Do you like the pretty?
Firefox 3: "Colour management support will result in richer colours for images that have a colour profile embedded in them." Hurrah! But: "colour management is off by default". Oh dear. Oh dear oh dear. Please do not let this default make it to release.

Main Page - Pyro Desktop
"Pyro works fundamentally by drawing your entire computer screen as a Web Page, all from within Firefox. Indeed, at the core Pyro is simply a window manager which renders Web content alongside existing native applications." Insane. But interesting.

Setting browser.chrome.toolbar_tips to false affects content
It took me a fresh profile and a few minutes of faffing with about:config to figure this out. Another for "when badly named preferences attack".

Tab History :: Firefox Add-ons
"New tabs retain the session history of the originating tab. Links opened in a new tab won't have a blank history, but one that is populated from the parent' tab" Nice to see this for Firefox, even if it is just an option. Again, for windows also?

Google Gears (Beta)
It's been busy at the Google developer day. Offline storage for Firefox and IE6 (no Safari). I'm guessing there's SQLite in there. Will there need to be a standard for offline storage before it takes off?

Geek to Live: Manage multiple Firefox profiles - Lifehacker
It's time for me to move up from Firefox 1.5, I think. Cloning a profile so I can return to it if I don't like 2.0 (or the Gran Paradiso alphas) seems like a good idea.

If, like me, you don't like a lot of the Firefox 2 UI changes, check this list to see if you can restore your favourite 1.5 behaviour.

AJAX Yahoo! Mail/foXpose/Tabnail - Viamatic Softwares
Wait a second, you use tabs so that you reduce the amount of windows you use then you stick something back over it so that you can expose all that "clutter" again? Er? (I'm also bitter that Firefox needs an extension to properly disable tabs)
