Official Firefox Addon Tester

  • 12 Feb, 2007
Addon Approved

I’m now an official AMO (addons.mozilla.org) tester. I volunteered for the job so that I could test themes and help get more of them out to the public faster. So far I’ve done a few themes and a few extensions. The upside is I get to see all the coolest new addons before anyone else. […]

My Airbag is Frozen

  • 5 Feb, 2007

I told you it was cold here in Minnesota. I don’t think we’ve hit 0 since Friday and it’s not exactly going to warm up anytime soon. Granted 12 is going to feel balmy and by the time it hits 30 we’ll be in shorts. 😀 However, it’s so cold that I think my airbag […]

Firefox – Innovations for Better Surfing T-Shirt

  • 30 Jan, 2007

Last night I arrived home to a package. Inside was my official Firefox developers t-shirt. I remember logging into my developer account at Mozilla and getting a note saying that I qualified for a free t-shirt since I had created an extension (yExplore) for Firefox 2. Fast forward a few months and here it is. […]
