Mozilla Unveils Aurora Concept Browser

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the because-they-can dept.

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."

    I like your signature, but it would be better to say "$(($(date +%Y)+1)) is going to be the year of Linux on the desktop!"

    Just for accuracy and all that, right? or perhaps "expr `date +%Y` + 1", for broader compatibility.

    Replying to yourself anonymously to complain about moderation isn't revolutionary.

    Okay.. Im replying up top, but this is such a random article I feel a random comment is in order...

    This just goes to show that the bringer of the last revolution (FF over IE) has no real idea who its over thrower will be.

    Personally I would like to see FF add some kind of podcast support (call it netcast if you like) plus better media download library management. Then FF could be a browser, news paper, radio station and TV station all in one.

    Itunes is the real competition to Firefox and the browser market in general.

    ...but doing it recursively for seven weeks is. Or will be now!

    So people are modding me off topic...

    Let me me pick this from the article:
    "The author searches through sports, entertainment ..."

    Sounds like iTunes to me?

    iTunes on windows is probably just as disruptive as firefox on windows... why? Because it offers something MS doesnt?

    And that fact that apple pushed Safari along with itunes.. Steve J can see the connection. You still want to mod me off topic?
