From IEBlog:
Just in case you missed it somehow, we released IE7 last Wednesday. In the first four days over three million of you have already downloaded the final release. Thank you!
And from Mike Beltzner’s web log:
Apparently, people loves them some Firefox. Within 24 hours of the official launch on Tuesday, there were over 2 [...]
(Other possible titles: “shameless self-promotion” and “this post is for my mom.”)
I did an interview at the conference today with Amber Mac for citynews. The full interview is available here and the short snippit that they apparently played during the 7pm news is available here. (I didn’t see it. I wasn’t in [...]
It looks like the interview that I did yesterday with Jim and Walter is up and it’s one of the better articles I’ve seen lately. We really are going to be able to do an OS that takes up less than 100MB of flash. We’re really close today. John and Dan have [...]
This week saw the release of a few of my favorite things:

When I read Greg’s recent entry all I can think of is this line from Star Wars:
The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers.
I was reading Kathy Sierra’s weblog earlier and thinking about a meeting that I had yesterday with some Lotus engineers about what we’re doing for One Laptop per Child. (Yes, Lotus has a lot of good ideas, even if we’re not turning all these kids into Enterprise Messaging Users.) She is talking about [...]
The design of the laptop has changed over time. It started with the green laptop with the crank. Then we had the blue laptop with the hinge on it. The most recent design, which will be used for the build out next month is great. Good textures, feels solid, includes the [...]
A terrible picture taken in front of that building they always blow up in movies. Mary Lou and Robert look at the test unit.
Last month we took one of the test display units down to the design firm we’ve been working with. They wanted to see how colors looked on the display and [...]
