Important update re Firefox 3.6 Release (and yesterday's post)

Firefox users are NOT currently being automatically updated (or prompted to update) from Version 3.5.7 or 3.6 Release Candidate 2 .... despite the fact that RC2 users will see 'Firefox 3.6' in the 'about' tab:


To get the final version (at least as of today, Fri Jan 22), you need to go to the Firefox home page and download the update.

At that point, at least in Windows 7, it's a simple matter of running the .exe file and overwriting your existing version.

I currently have Firefox, IE8 (patched), Google's Chrome and Apple's Safari running on various boxes and hope to have a brand-new comparison next week (with some surprises).

As far as our mention of Seesmic's new Twitter interface yesterday, it's not at all what we expected.  Watch for a walk-through and review this weekend.


Windows XP and Windows 7 users can try to new program out here.

Have a great weekend all ... and always, thanks for dropping by ...
