It’s happening again. Once upon a time, browser vendors started adding their own features without consulting with each other and agreeing upon standards.

Via TechCrunch I noticed that there won’t be flash player for the iPhone anytime soon. I’m not surprised. I said this before.
Apple doesn’t want the iPhone to get the reputation of having poor battery life. Apple is said to have avoided 3G thus far because of power consumption reasons, instead opting for [...]

I’m curious if Adobe’s going to be able to get [...]

Daniel Glazman apparently is starting a new company!
MozillaZine has it covered.
