Googlefox Redux

Yes, it’s another Google/Firefox blog post. This time in response to a CNet blog post regarding Google’s relationship with Mozilla.

Summer of Code

Google just launched their “Summer of Code“. To bad the Mozilla Foundation isn’t participating, I would have joined in if it was. Would have been a good chance to get some extra cash while enhancing the reporter tool, and perhaps taking on another project. I’m suprised considering GoogleFox ;-). Perhaps they’ll join.

Google Outage

Seems google.com is down. Who turned off the lights? I wonder what happened? Did Googlefox cause a power surge? Update #1 [7:13 PM EST]: It’s DNS related as this still works. Update #2 [7:15 PM EST]: Seems to be coming back now. Update #3 [7:39 PM EST]: Engadget suggests a DNS Hack, perhaps poisoning, but […]
