Firefox 1.0 is now out! As of this posting, 2 109 079 downloads of Firefox 1.0 have been recorded by SpreadFirefox since November 9, 2004. Interesting launch related ‘buzz’ around the net:

On a related topic, why is Internet Explorer unsafe? I would say it’s time to banish IE to that second browser status.

Ok, so what else is buzzing around the net? Very importantly for Ontario folks, the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act is on the move. Looks like enforcement is being legislated this time. If you haven’t embraced accessibility by now.. wake up.

As we move more towards RSS feeds around here, a timely mention on how that changes things. Basically RSS feeds give people instant deep access to your site so your home page is less important.

..and a decent tip from Gerry on obvious mistakes web folks make.

Now. I would like to highlight more of the interesting web developments on campus. Especially given ‘collobrative’ software being a real buzz. I had this link sent to me from a student is SYDE, class of 2008. Their site is a great example of different technologies converging on one site. It looks cool too ;)
