Get FirefoxJon Hicks posted today about the "re-branding":http://www.hicksdesign.co.uk/journal/archives/000377.php of the "Mozilla Firebird":http://mozilla.org/products/firefox/ browser. Though I don't love the new name, "Firefox":http://www.bengoodger.com/weblog/archives/week_2004_02_08.shtml#000549, obviously lawyers have been involved. But, the new logo is what really caught my eye... It's truly an inspiring leap. And the pinstripe theme for OS X is beautiful as well. I'm still a "Safari":http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/hyatt/ fan, but it's good to see another alternative.
