Monthly meta-post for July…
Here’s my round-up of the best of other peoples posts from the last month. This is all stuff from the web development and search communities that I’ve found useful, interesting or funny:
-
Blake Ross Interview
Nice interview with Mr Firefox (Blake Ross) covering such topics as Firefox 2.0, Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox’s relationship with Google - well worth a read.
Also while we’re on the topic of Firefox, check out my post on Firefox Quicksearch Bookmarks from earlier on this month.
