Mozilla Unveils Aurora Concept Browser

Barence writes "Mozilla has unveiled a spectacular new concept browser, dubbed Aurora. The bleeding-edge browser is part of a new Mozilla Labs initiative, in which the open-source foundation is encouraging people to contribute ideas and designs for the browser of the future. The Aurora browser demonstration shows a highly advanced way of collaborating data gathered on the web, and represents a spectacular introduction to the new Mozilla Labs, which much like Google Labs looks to become a home for offbeat projects which would otherwise probably never see the light of day. More details, and a video demonstration, are on the Mozilla Labs site."

All in a name

This will no doubt lead to confusion with the Arora webkit browser. http://arora-browser.org/ Sigh... I spent a good chunk of time finding the name and making sure there wasn't any conflicts out there. And then comes along not only a software application, but a browser... :( Should I change my name or ask them to change theirs? -Benjamin Meyer

Adaptive Path designed Aurora with Mozilla

[securitas]

Setting aside the gushing tone of the submitter's post, Aurora is Adaptive Path's first open source design project and collaboration with Mozilla -- it's not all Mozilla.

Adaptive Path team designers and members discuss the design process extensively and in detail on their blog. More details in the Firehose

You might want to check out the Aurora Launch Party, too, if you're in San Francisco tonight
