Firefox 4 Friday: 25 million downloads, anti-aliasing, and how to make it look like Firefox 3

Mar 25th 2011 1:17PM (Download Squad)
Thanks for pointing out Stratiform, looks useful.

Did I miss something though? I thought the orange button was (thankfully) moved inline with the other tabs? I used a custom chrome setup in the early betas, then removed it when it finally went inline, and my FF bar is still inline.

Now, in all the official screens, it looks like it's back on it's own row again. What did I miss?

Kindle update brings real page numbers, public notes, and new magazine layout

Feb 8th 2011 12:29PM (Download Squad)
"Real page numbers will be available for Amazon's Kindle apps in the next few months"

It takes a couple of months just for that? Really? I bought my first book for Kindle on the iPad yesterday, and my very first annoyance was the lack of page numbers. Yeah, I'll live. But the good news that somebody at Amazon woke up about this is tapered by the fact it's going to take them an ice age to do anything about it.

I hope, but doubt, that this will correct the issue with the "page" not staying the same length. I changed font size out of curiosity and was very annoyed when changing the size back resulted in a page of a different length. Same deal with clicking a footnote and clicking back - suddenly the footnote was at the top of the page.

Game + Music Bundle offers three 'pay what you want' indie deals for charity

@Gritzor The first bundle at least gave me a "Windows" or "Mac" option on download. It'll ask when you're entering your amount after logging in, so you can check.

Your guide to Firefox 4 and its shiny new features

Nov 11th 2010 2:32PM (Download Squad)
"if you want a feature-rich browser that adds to the surfing experience, Firefox is still the browser for you."

My thoughts exactly. Chrome's javascript performance tempts me, but as a professional web developer I can not do without Firefox as my main browser. Firebug for Firefox still blows the doors off of Chrome's version and their built in inspection tools, in my opinion. Not to mention all the other little extensions that tweak the experience to exactly what I need.

If Chrome had the same extension support that Firefox does, I'd consider switching. But as is, Firefox is the browser for me and that's not changing.

Professional-grade Lightworks Open Source video editor to be released November 29th

Nov 11th 2010 2:16PM (Download Squad)
I believe it's the 29th as said in the article. The 22nd is probably a typo.

Thanks for posting this - this is the first I've heard, but I'm definitely going to be trying this out. Our company does a lot of video editing and this looks like it trumps some of our current go-to software.

For me personally, I've been wanting a good, free video editor in Windows.

Wow, I'm really glad they caught that bug. I use Japanese daily on my iPhone, so this would have been a major inconvenience.

Nope - just went to a web developer's conference (An Event Apart) and it was revealed that, If Web 2.0 is defined as rounded corners, Web 2.5 is lens flares. There you have it. The next big thing.

GameFly selling Final Fantasy XIII, Splinter Cell: Conviction, more for under $20

Oct 26th 2010 5:04PM (Joystiq)
@NaeemTHM When I lived in the midwest, Gamefly was terrible for me and I canceled after a month or so. Now that I live on the west coast, Gamefly has been great. Been a member for two years or so now.
