If you haven’t tried out Firefox yet, now’s the time to do it. The latest version of the software — two years in the making — has been released today. Get your copy now. In the next couple of weeks, the Spread Firefox effort to get a Firefox ad published in the NY Times will be finished, making history in rough tandem with the release of a piece of software that, even in beta, beats the pants off any other browser I’ve tried. Much credit to Blake Ross, Ben Goodger, and the rest of the Firefox crew for a job well done.

I get a fair amount of traffic from news feed aggregators. Are you one of the people aggregating me? If so, would you consider letting me know? Just curious and maybe a little surprised that anybody’s bothering to read this on a regular basis (aside from maybe some family members, very few of whom I imagine would set up news feed aggregators). I aggregate lots of blogs, but they’re typically the ones written by pillars of the Web development and design/standards giants. As I’m not one of these giants, I, again, can’t really figure out why anybody’d be aggregating me. Not that I mind or anything; I just want to understand.
