Rock Your Firefox Blog
March 11, 2010
[SXSW] Yesterday, Mozilla launched its new blog “Rock Your Firefox”, featuring the coolest add-ons for Firefox, the popular open source browser. The first post featured Yoono, a social networking site aggregator and management tool that lets public chat or update their status in various social websites, and that, from the Firefox sidebar while they browse the web. The latest version (7.1) was released last month. I have not used Yoono in a while, it might now do the same job as Hootsuite in a smaller space (from the side bar instead of using the whole browser window); well, I have to check it. The second post features Xsticky, a virtual sticky note add-on that lets you jot down thoughts and put them by any web page. Rock Your Firefox will be a good online info center to discover new adds-on quickly.

January 29, 2010
During the recent iPad announcement, the iPad showed some of its weaknesses - non-Flash support was one of the main gripes. According to Adobe on their official Flash Platform Blog, that is not a problem due to the presence of Packager for iPhone - a way that enables Flash apps to be converted into iPhone/iPod Touch apps. With a variant of the same software spine running on the iPad, logic dictates that the same can be applied to enable some manner of Flash graphics being supported.
