Firefox 3.2 Plans Include Natural Language, Themes

Shrike82 writes "Mozilla have described plans for the next version of their popular web browser, Firefox. Mozilla's "Ubiquity project" is set to become a standard feature, allowing "users to type natural language phrases into the browser to perform certain tasks, such as typing 'map 10 Downing Street' to instantly see a Google map of that address, or 'share-on-delicious' to bookmark the site you're currently visiting on the social news site." Also of interest is so-called "lightweight theming" allowing users to customise the browsers design more easily. The launch date is still somewhat unclear, and Mozilla are apparently unsure if version 3.2 will be released at all, apparently considering going straight to Firefox 4."

    Seriously. Firefox is almost as bloated as that partisan so-called stimulus bill Obama and Pelosi are trying to sell us. Boy, Obama sure switched from the politics of hope to the politics of fear in record time, didn't he? If we don't cram this monstrosity of a spending bill through ASAP, the world will end! Oh noes! Save me, Big Brother! I'm helpless without your divine guidance!

    OK.

    Somebody explain to me how the AC who made the dildo joke got modded Insightful and the guy that either missed or ignored the dildo joke and provided a useful link got modded Funny.

    Mods on crack again?

    Assholes like you make me want to be a jock instead of a geek...

    Not getting that noone else is going to roll up their sleeves and do the shit that you want done certainly makes you sound more like a jock already. And a selfish asshole.
