However, not all websites or blogs have social bookmarking buttons installed on them so if you want to share a funny video, a cool photo or a link to a news [...]

Today, November 9th marks the sixth birthday of the Mozilla Firefox web browser. Firefox is my main browser of choice for the past eight years.

Hi everyone! My apologies for the very late edition of the Weekend Roundup. As some of you know (Facebook, Gowalla, Foursquare friends), I was out and busy the whole weekend because of our church retreat in Palm Springs.

This is the first time I’ve heard of a security flaw that’s caused or involves two browsers. Most of the time, known security flaws are found in Internet Explorer and sometimes in Firefox.
