Mozilla M16 (milestone 16) is up. I'm downloading now and will report back.
Today (among other things) I've been checking out the icab web browser. It is Macintosh only (how often does that happen?) and very good. Quick download (1.1 mb) here. No installation, no hassles, very well behaved program (this is too rare these days.) Just download and double click and you're off to the races. This is a pre-release version, but so far it appears rock solid (unlike that other preview release browser we won't mention.) The only draw back is that javascript support is lacking at this point, so for some sites it will not work. But for this site (and most others) it functions very well. It's fast. And it doesn't need a lot of memory. I definitely recommend you check it out. The final release promises javascript and CSS level II (!) support. Possibly I'm not thinking clearly, but if feels like they (gasp) tried to make a good product rather than corner the rights to a mountain of money. Go icab.
Oh my god. Courtney Love is my new hero. Here's a transcript of a speech she gave to the Digital Hollywood online entertainment conference. Long, but very worth it. Here's the quick (very) paraphrased version: "Take my Prada pants - fuck it. All I need is a good back end coder."
